Nowadays, it isn’t easy to source for tattoo ideas and images what with the rampant availability of ho-hum creations, which even my tattoo artist confirms: “There are too many identical looking designs lying around. A lot of folks don’t even bother doing portfolio hunting so they tend to opt for pre-made designs that are terribly, terribly lame. I’m sick of doing the same old crap. Can’t they come up with something unique for a change?”
And so, I decided to point out 5 ways to source for tattoo ideas and images so you won’t get stuck with boring and insipid pre-made designs typically found in tattoo shops or generic tattoo websites, some of which will impose a fee of anywhere from 10$ -20$ for just ONE measly design!
Hopefully, the following suggestions may assist you in conceiving lots of original design ideas, and realise them in a novel manner, the results of which not only mark your body with breathtakingly unique work of art but also fill you with a sense of pride.
4. Internet Message Boards – If you wish to obtain ideas in the comfort of your own house, then you should consider joining message boards that specifically discusses about tattoos. You may find plenty of inspiration to form your own original tattoo ideas and images but beware however, as there seem to be a lot of spammers and abusive users lurking in those message boards.
3. Find a very good tattoo artist – Okay this may sound obvious, but did you know that many “tattoo virgins” would simply go through the motion of getting a permanent ink on their skin without properly discussing with the artist? Getting a tattoo is a very serious decision, and designs that you intend to have for possibly the rest of your life must be well thought out beforehand. It is best that you approach an artist and discuss with him or her at length regarding what kind of a tattoo you have in mind.
Do not make any decision hastily and be sure to provide the artist with all the relevant info like what the tattoo means to you, what it represents, any deep symbolic meaning that you would like to indicate, and so on. These are all the things that you must relay accordingly and who knows, perhaps the artist may conceive a much better rendition of your original ideas.
2. Graphics Application – My second favorite way to source for tattoo ideas and images. Are you handy with graphic applications such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP? If yes is your answer, then prepare for hours of creative fun as you create and manipulate images to help you develop tattoo designs from scratch.
1. Online Tattoo Galleries – Eager to gain access to a huge array of mostly sumptuous looking tattoo creations? Well, online tattoo galleries are definitely the place to haunt if you’re absolutely keen on finding great looking tattoos that are updated on a regular basis. Apart from the large library of ever growing designs, you are also entitled to print out their images in the highest quality resolution thus making the tattooing process a whole lot breezier for the artist. Some galleries also furnish you with access to many highly useful tattoo resources including tattoo studio reviews, directories, helpful members forum, and even videos to help make your journey in sourcing tattoo ideas and images a very pleasurable one.
