The blade represents honor, justice, courage, and the willingness to fight for what matters. As one of the oldest weapon symbols in art, the sword adapts to virtually any tattoo style and pairs naturally with shields, roses, and serpents.

Watercolor tattoos use soft color gradients and flowing edges that mimic paint on paper. The technique avoids heavy outlines, letting colors blend naturally into the skin for a light, artistic appearance.

The inner arm offers a soft, relatively flat surface that suits detailed and sensitive designs. It's a semi-private placement, visible only when the arm is turned or raised.
