Twilight Movie tattoo on back

It’s unusual to go for a full back tattoo when it’s your first ever tattoo. It’s even more unusual if you’ve waited for the age of 49 to get your first tattoo. But it’s exactly what Cathy Ward, 49, went out to do as a Christmas treat.

The whole back tattoo is a made up scene of the twilight movie. As you’ve guessed, she’s a big fan of the Twilight Saga series. She got into the books and movies after a friend introduced her to the saga to cheer her up. She really wanted something to illustrate how much of a fan she really is. She’s admitted that she wanted "a permanent reminder of the amazing series" so she got a small tattoo and it turned into a whole back tattoo. The full back includes the heroes from the movies: sexy Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner.




The supermarket worker, from Reading, had to save for month to be able to afford the tattoo. She then braved 22 hours in the tattoo artist’s parlour to get her back inked.

She still wants to get more done including her arms so she is now saving up for her next tattoo.

She claims the series was so powerful on her that it helped her lose a lot of weight. Her husband of 18 years is very proud of her. She’s now waiting for more tattoos and maybe a signed autograph for the stars of the series.

The four books, which have been translated into 38 different languages, have sold more than 100million copies worldwide while the films have smashed box office records.

A great movie success in 2010 and a great story for Cathy who loves her back tattoo.
