Variations in Tattoos Design

A simple search on the Internet will show a vast array of all different kinds, sizes and colors of tattoos. Sometimes the mere decision on the final design is a big enough task in and of itself. Even if a sample is copied, it can be altered in just about any way giving even more options.

The biggest variation among tattoos is size. Tattoos can be very tiny or very large. Tattoos might be as tiny as a single small letter, a minuscule flower or a dinky symbol. Tiny tattoos aren't always the easiest, however as they can prove quite difficult if more detail is involved in such a small space.

Large tattoos are very commonly seen. Tattoos stretching down the entire back, all the way across the chest and even full sleeves are regularly found among tattoo enthusiasts. Perhaps the biggest of them all are the full body tattoos, which aren't uncommon.

Another variation in tattoos is color. Many people prefer the look of a tattoo in a single color. Typically, this color is black. Tribal, symbolic and word tattoos are often found as a solid black. These are often more commonly encountered than colorful tattoos.

Colored tattoos aren't rare, however. Just about any color imaginable can be used on a tattoo. Inks can even be mixed to create a specific color. Brightly colored tattoos can be made in as many designs as black tattoos. Certain colors may be used resembling something sentimental, important or simply a favorite color.

Shading can be a variation in tattoos as well. Shading differs from color variances. A black tattoo can be made more intricate by creating a shading effect. Shading can also be done with colored tattoos. As the tattoo is created by a series of dots, the more spread apart the dots are, the lighter the ink will appear, creating a shading effect.

Many times, a tattoo artist will offer advice for decisions on the design of the tattoo. Shading may be recommended in the place of color, at times. It can be one way to provide more effect within the design without adding a bunch of, or any, color.
