An Australian man faces assault charges after tattooing a giant penis on his friend's back.
The 21-year-old amateur tattooist inked the 16-inch image onto his former pal, along with a phrase with homosexual connotations.
According to police, the 25-year-old victim was persuaded to get the artwork done while he popped over to his pal's house before being tricked into having the inking done.
Detective Constable Paul Malcolm said: "Somehow in the course of the conversation the subject of tattoos came up. The victim wasn't interested at first but he was talked into it and he said he wanted a Yin and Yang symbol with some dragons."
However, on arriving home later, his flatmate told him: "I don't think it's the tattoo you were after."
The artist faces two charges of assault occasioning bodily harm. The victim is now due to undergo laser removal.

“Sometimes I bust out and do things so permanent. Like tattoos and marriage”
