A woman who completely transformed herself into a heavily tattooed adult model has shared a rare throwback photo of herself before the radical changes.

Amber Luke, who’s better known as ‘Dragon Girl’, took to Instagram on Wednesday to open up about her past appearance and the ‘inner battles’ she faced at the time.

In the accompanying image, Amber showcased a fresh, youthful face almost bare of tattoos and piercings.

Now, the 29-year-old is covered in tattoos from head to toe, including her eyeballs, and even has her tongue split in half to resemble a lizard.

‘Pictured on the left – a girl; at that stage feeling lost – feeling disconnected from herself,’ she began in her caption.

‘Pictured right – a woman; at that stage feeling turmoil; although resilience radiates.’

‘These two women had a choice,’ Amber added. ‘To be the person on the left and be miserably ignorant to my own wants and needs in life & 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 & embraces charismatic traits. I am someone who takes accountability & responsibility.’

‘I am Amber Luke. You will either love it or f***in despise it,’ she concluded her post.

Amber has made headlines for her conspicuous appearance and over 99 per cent of her body is covered in tattoos.

She has sunk $280,000 into her all-encompassing ink fixation.

The Brisbane-based model flaunts satanic symbols, a split tongue and tattooed bright blue eyeballs, which she said left her blinded her for three weeks.

‘I went blind after tattooing eyeballs but I have no regrets and won’t stop,’ Amber said in a video back in August while getting even more work done to her body.

While not everyone is a fan, Amber said she is proud of the dedication put into her journey to becoming the ‘true version’ of herself – and has since been dubbed ‘Australia’s Most Tattooed Woman’ online.

In 2022, Amber revealed how her extreme ink and body modifications have changed her life.

She told Brisbane radio show Robin, Terry & Kip that having 600 tattoos, which cover 99 per cent of her body, sometimes makes her daily life challenging.

‘I am getting very heavily tattooed, but I’m not harming anyone in the process,’ she told radio hosts Kip Wightman, Robin Bailey and Terry Hansen.

She added that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but she finds it ‘distressing’ when people make unkind remarks in public – especially when they say she has ‘ruined’ her looks with tattoos.

‘Everyone has their own opinions of what beauty is,’ she said. ‘You see these cultures [where people] stretch their necks, their ears, their lips. But at the end of the day, we all are entitled to our opinion and that’s okay.

‘But, what gets to me is when someone expresses their opinion to me in public and comes up to me and says, “Oh, you’re ugly,” or, “You’ve ruined yourself.”‘

She continued: ‘It’s very distressing to know that people have that strong opinion and they can just voice it without any repercussions.’

Amber also revealed she struggles to find a job because of how she looks.

‘I’m not going to sugar coat it, it has limited my [employment] options but that’s okay,’ she said.

‘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.’
