Amber Luke, dubbed the 'Dragon Girl' for her extensive body modifications, recently shared some throwback photos from before tattoos became her obsession.
Luke, often hailed as 'Australia's most tattooed woman,' boasts nearly complete coverage in ink.
However, her journey to this distinctive appearance was not always apparent, as evidenced by her throwback snapshots.
According to the Daily Mail, Luke's body is adorned with tattoos, covering over 99 percent of her skin.
The Brisbane-based model proudly displays her unique satanic symbols, along with her vibrant blue tattooed eyeballs and forked split tongue, on her Instagram, where she boasts nearly 60,000 followers.
"I went blind after tattooing eyeballs but I have no regrets and won't stop," she claimed on the social media platform at the time.
Luke has openly discussed the challenges she encountered during her tattoo transformation journey in the past.

"It's very distressing to know that people have that strong opinion and they can just voice it without any repercussions."
Additionally, Luke has disclosed experiencing employment issues due to her unconventional appearance, remarking: "I'm not going to sugar coat it, it has limited my [employment] options but that's OK. Because the way I see it is, I don't want to work for a company that's shallow-minded [and can't] look past my image."
"They won't look at my work ethic, they won't look at my morals or my values or what I have to bring to the table."
However, Luke's followers appear equally intrigued by her appearance prior to embarking on her tattoo journey.
Occasionally, the star shares throwback snapshots from a time before she pushed her tattoo collection to the extreme.
People frequently flock to the comments section of Luke's posts, expressing admiration for the tattoo enthusiast's remarkable transformation.
One fan writes: "Absolutely stunning before and after. Just a beautiful woman!"
Another adds: "Love your journey; you're beautiful."
While a third says: "You are a work of art."
She captions one post: "7 years…. Wow. A lot happens in 7 years. I can tell you that I've learnt a lot about the human anatomy – I have knowledge in infection control, tattooing and body modification but most of all – I've learnt the most about myself."
"I have persevered through and endured so much pain – the amount of shock I have experienced is ridiculous haha. But – in saying that, I am strong. I am pliant – I am powerfully built."
"I am unapologetically me."
In another, she writes: "Pictured on the left – a girl; at that stage feeling lost – feeling disconnected from herself."
"Pictured right – a woman; at that stage feeling turmoil; although resilience radiates."
"These two women had a choice. To be the person on the left and be miserably ignorant to my own wants and needs in life and was projecting hatred onto others, for the inner pain was too confrontational to stand."
"Or be the woman on the right – someone who dominates their brain and emotions and embraces charismatic traits. I am someone who takes accountability and responsibility."
