Its long, winding body makes the dragon ideal for placements that follow the body's lines: a composition wrapping along the arm, a slender fine line dragon running down the spine or a large Japanese piece covering the back.
Things to know about Dragon Tattoos
The body's flow picks the spot
A dragon looks alive when its curves follow the direction of the muscle and bone. Rotate the design in the try-on tool to find the angle where its body sits best on the arm or spine.
Fine line or irezumi?
A fine line dragon stays small and delicate, but scale detail spreads over time; a Japanese irezumi dragon needs a large size and several sessions.
The companion motif
Peonies, clouds, waves or a sword change the dragon's story. Plan not just the dragon but the motifs around it together with your artist.
