Questions, answered.
What makes a illustrative tattoo distinctive?
Narrative details shaped by clear drawn contours. It uses expressive hand-drawn contours and fine hatching and measured grey values.
Which subjects suit illustrative designs?
Try fox in leaves, owl on branch or whale and stars. Keep the subject original and describe one clear focal point.
How much space should I allow for illustrative?
The starting recommendation is 8 cm. Smaller requests remain available, but details are simplified and your artist should assess actual spacing.
Can I use color in a illustrative concept?
Color is supported; choose a restrained palette that preserves the silhouette. Line-only is also available for a clearer contour study.
How do I create and print my own illustrative idea?
Choose this style, describe your subject, and set placement and size. Use Stencil on a result to create a mirrored or tiled real-size PDF; print at 100% and measure the calibration square.
