Frequently asked questions

How should a tattoo prompt differ from an illustration prompt?+
It has to state that it is a design, not a scene: flat, on white, no background, no shading gradients. A tattoo prompt that reads like an illustration prompt gives you a lovely picture your artist cannot work from.
How do I keep a design at a line weight that can be tattooed?+
Say the weight out loud — "bold even linework", "single needle fine line" — and keep the elements few. Designs that look intricate on screen often cannot be inked at the size you want, because the gaps between lines are thinner than skin allows.
How do I use these prompts?+
Copy any prompt with its button, or click "Use this prompt" to open the matching generator with it preloaded. Adjust the details — subject, colors, mood — and generate.
