Simpson Tattoo Photo #4305

More than three decades on air have turned Homer, Bart, and the rest of Springfield into instantly recognizable icons that translate well to skin. From faithful character portraits to surreal mashups, Simpson tattoos let fans wear their humor on their sleeve.

Using only black ink at different dilutions, this style achieves a photographic quality with rich shadows and soft highlights. Black and grey work is versatile enough for portraits, nature scenes, and symbolic imagery.

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.
