FAQ
Quick answers before you dive in.
Why are the ideas organized by placement?
Placement decides proportions, visibility and how a design ages. Browsing forearm ideas next to forearm ideas lets you compare layouts that share the same constraints before you choose a style.
How do I choose a placement?
Start with visibility and size. Forearm and hand are seen daily, thigh and back give more room and are easy to cover, and spine or nape placements sit in between.
What are the preview images?
Each design is shown as a mockup on the body area it was made for, so you can judge scale and position. Final size and placement are always set with your artist.
Can I download the designs?
Designs that have finished high-res and stencil-ready files show a purchase button on their page. Everything else can be saved as a reference for your artist.
