Tattoo Styles You Can Create
Fine Line Tattoos
Thin lines and delicate detail. Great for small, subtle pieces like florals, script and tiny symbols.
Traditional Tattoos
Bold black outlines and a limited, saturated palette in the classic American style: roses, swallows, daggers, anchors.
Minimalist Tattoos
Clean shapes and as few lines as possible. Ideal for first tattoos and small placements.
Blackwork Tattoos
Solid black ink, heavy fills and strong contrast, from geometric patterns to bold illustration.
Watercolor Tattoos
Soft splashes of color that look like paint on paper, often paired with fine linework.
Japanese Tattoos
Inspired by Irezumi: koi, dragons, waves, cherry blossoms and flowing compositions.

Tips for Better Tattoo Prompts
- Name the main subject first (for example, "a wolf head").
- Add two or three details: flowers, lettering, a moon, a frame.
- Mention size or placement if it matters: "small", "wrist", "forearm sleeve".
- Keep it short. One clear idea usually gives a cleaner design.
- Try the same prompt in two styles to compare.
