The leg offers a large area for detail or a subtle placement for smaller pieces. Thigh, calf, or shin Thigh placements allow larger designs and softer curves, while calves suit vertical compositions.

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.

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.
