Unlike symbols with deep mythological roots, success imagery is often self-defined-a mountain peak, a trophy, a date, or a phrase that marks a turning point. These tattoos serve as daily reminders that progress is real and effort pays off.

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.

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.
