These powerful tattoos often feature iconic imagery such as parachute wings, jump boots, unit insignias, and the famous "Death from Above" motto. Popular among veterans and active military personnel, airborne tattoos serve as permanent tributes to service and sacrifice.

Inspired by jewelry, architecture, and textile patterns, ornamental tattoos create intricate, decorative compositions on the skin. Precision and symmetry are key, giving these pieces an almost meditative quality.

Calf tattoos benefit from a muscular canvas that gives designs depth and presence. The flat rear surface works well for portraits and detailed work, while wrapping designs follow the leg's natural shape.
