Photos from the 2023 shoot for Necessaire, made with Mario Fresh and Renvtø, show Mohamed Ramadan with a dark dragon across the left side of his abdomen, below the ribs. In the production frames he wears white goggles and chains; one wide shot places him beside a cinema camera.
The images document the tattoo during filming, but they don’t establish that it stayed after the shoot. The useful details are its shape, placement and part in the video look—not an unconfirmed addition to his permanent collection.
The dragon tattoo sits high on the left side of his abdomen
In the clearest front-facing frame, Ramadan’s jacket is open and the dragon runs from high on his left abdomen toward the waist. Its head and upper body are easiest to make out; the lower part narrows into a curve along his torso.
The dark outline reads under the set lighting without much color or tiny detail. It sits below the ribs rather than in the center of his stomach, with open skin around it. The photos show a substantial design, though not enough to say how long it remained.
A second angle shows how the dragon tattoo works beside the camera setup
A wider frame puts Ramadan beside a cinema camera, with the dragon visible below his open coat. The rig fills one side of the shot, making it clear this is a working music-video set rather than a posed tattoo portrait.
The camera’s hard lines contrast with the creature’s curved body. His printed trousers and theatrical styling add more pattern and texture, while the dark dragon gives the bare torso one clear shape.
The costume carries as much drama as the set
A profile photo from the production shows Ramadan moving across the set. The dragon isn’t clear enough in this view to identify details, but the coat, chains and open shirt show how the shoot’s styling revealed the abdomen.
Those photos give context for the tattoo’s appearance without proving anything about permanence. Clothes can hide or reveal a design; here the costume leaves the torso open and makes the dark mark part of the character’s look.
Ramadan’s photographed look was built for a music video
Another behind-the-scenes photo shows Ramadan seated with the crew around him. The coat, sunglasses and bare chest all belong to the video’s constructed look, and the image provides setting rather than close tattoo evidence.
Music videos can use makeup or body paint as well as permanent tattoos. Without confirmation from Ramadan or the tattoo artist, a production photo can’t tell us how long this dragon lasted. Its appearance in the Necessaire shoot is what the available record supports.
The dragon tattoo is clearest in the close production photographs
A second wide production photograph shows the same dragon beside a cinema camera. Compared with the frontal image, it gives more context for the design’s scale and its position on the left abdomen. The contrast with the lighter, patterned trousers makes the dark outline easy to pick out.
The tattoo reads as one bold silhouette in the frame, while the costume supplies most of the detail around it. These photos are useful references for shape and placement, but they still show a shoot look rather than a confirmed permanent tattoo.
What to borrow from the photographed look
The design’s clearest feature is its scale: one dark dragon low on the left side of the torso, with enough open skin around it to read against the elaborate costume. That focused shape carries the look without adding another large piece to the frame.
If you’re considering a dragon in the same area, test its size and curve on a body-shaped stencil. The abdomen shifts when you bend or sit, so a flat screen mock-up won’t show every change. The production photos can guide placement, but your tattooer should design for your body.
