Funny Tattoo Photo #14667

A funny tattoo can be a great idea, but the best ones still follow good tattoo design rules. Clean shapes, readable lines, and a clear focal point matter more than the joke itself.

Using lines of varying thickness to define shape and depth, linework tattoos achieve expression through economy. The absence of shading keeps the focus on the quality and flow of each stroke.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
