"Asian tattoo" is a very broad label. Asia includes many cultures and visual traditions, so the first step is choosing a specific direction-dragon themes, Chinese calligraphy, South Asian spiritual imagery, Southeast Asian ornamental geometry, or something tied to your own heritage.

Achieving lifelike results in skin requires mastery of light, shadow, and color blending. Realistic tattoos often look three-dimensional, with subjects appearing to emerge from the skin surface.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
