Top 5 Tattoo Design Sites
5. Tattoo-art.com
The great thing with Tattoo-art.com is that they have a great selection of designs and a lot of them. On top of that the designs are super easy to find in the page, due to the great layout of the page. But good designs and layout won’t et you everywhere and that is about as far as it goes for this site; yes the designs are plentiful, but there aren’t many big or realistic/complex designs and they don’t have as big a selection to choose from as other sites. Another disadvantage to the site is that you still have to pay for deigns that you want to download, and sorry to say but I wouldn’t be downloading the designs anytime soon, not at those prices; e.g. $9 for one tribal piece, now that is extortion.
A good site for tribal enthused designs, but that’s about it.
4. Freetattoodesign.org
As expected when you go on to this site, all the designs they have are free; which personally is great because I hate having to pay for some image that I just want to be able to get a better look at. They also have a great lay out to the page and it is simple to find what you are after, it is just a matter of weather they have it or not. Unfortunately the down side to this site is that they have a very limited amount of images and designs to choose from; only 2 if you’re after Japanese dragons.
Although on the upside, the amount of information they have to give you is astonishing. They offer info on not just tattoos them selves but after care, removal, artists and even supplies. When it comes to tattoos they have the history and meanings behind everything and anything for example, the history of tattooing itself or different scale designs for your Koi fish. Overall a great site to visit and get clued up on anything tattoo, and find the odd design.
3. Myttoos.com
I first came across Myttoos.com through their facebook page, but when I then noticed that they also have a website I was eager to check that out as well, and I was surprised to find tonnes of information on tattoos. They have done well to involve you with the site as much as possible, from questionnaires and voting for photos, to helping to moderate images that they get sent in.
The site is run more like a blog than a website, with news updates everyday on the world of tattoos, which is super useful weather you are looking to be a tattoo artist or just trying to find out more on where the best place is to get inked. When it comes to finding designs the website is still very young and doesn’t have much selection at all, but if you venture over to their facebook, where I first found them, you will find a whole array of tattoo designs and images of tats that people have. Not as big as some of them but the range of images is perfect and not having too many means you don’t get lost trying to find something you are after.
2. TattooJohnny.com
Out of al the page I looked at TattooJohnny.com had the single largest assortment of tattoo designs and stencils, ranging from simple star and heart designs, to Japanese dragons. One feature that also stood out to me was the “Celebrity Artist” section where they have one artist a month to submit designs for you to download; personally I think this is fantastic as it means you can have a very high quality design without that high price tag to go along with it.
Due to it being such a large site, with so much to offer, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that they also had daily updates on designs, so that there is always new and improved pieces if you don’t find the ne you want straight away. As a slight side track, TattooJohnny.com also offers a large selection of aftercare products and at very reasonable prices too, something that is just as important, if not more than, getting the right design.
Unfortunately on the negative side, this site does charge for the designs that you want to download, given they are of exceptional quality; but a large majority of the tattoos on there are tribal based. So people that are looking for more realistic, complex pieces will have to look elsewhere.
1. Checkoutmyink.com
This is the best page when it comes to looking for a tattoo design; it has tonnes of images free to your finger tips, to copy and easy access to inspire your creative juices. Due to it also being a community of tattoo enthusiasts there are comments to go along with most of the images, so that you can get a perspective from possibly a million other people. As well as these fantastic attributes, the site is extremely easy to use, so that you can find any design you’re after; just type the keyword and there you are, over 1000 images of just one design type.
As a slight tangent, Checkoutmyink.com also has one of the simplest processes to create your own account and upload your own designs, to help all perspective artists to get their own stuff noticed, and commented on by millions; a definite must have for people looking to get noticed, I speak from personal experience, after just one day of uploading my images I had tonnes of comments from people spanning the world.
So when you are looking for a design or just looking to share the ink, your first stop has to be Checkoutmyink.com, all thumbs up for this page; nice work guys.
