That's a striking image. Reminds me a lot of a graffiti artist's style of writing. I wonder what it's supposed to say?

So I did a little digging and see that's it's probably body paint by a Russian graffiti artist named знаг.

But, but, but...

Doesn't your first link say the pic is essentially photo-shopped, and the graffiti (um ?) by знаг was the last element added ?

On re-reading my post, I need an amendment...

Even if it is photo-shopped, it's a dramatic image.
And for a work of art, PhotoShop is just another tool for the artist.

Is that like a real leg or a wooden leg??????

If it's real, that looks worse even than the sows who walk around with giant ass flabby pimply vericose veiny legs with a tattoo on them that looks like someone just kicked the ever-loving crap out of their leg, or kicked it a few days ago so the bruise is that lovely greenish yellowish color. Nasty.

She couldn't walk around on that - there isn't a hinged joint.
That's just Heather McCartney's pulling leg.

That was my thought, too, but I came upon it through a series of sites on tattoos. My source said it was a tattoo, but I guess it is painted on? Or photoshopped?

Too bad. It would make an awesome tattoo.
