Common motifs include flames, ashes, and rising wings. This guide covers style, placement, and practical design choices for flames and rising wings.

Originating from centuries-old cultural practices, tribal designs carry symbolic weight through their patterns and placement. Modern tribal tattoos adapt these traditional motifs into contemporary compositions that honor the style's heritage.

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.
