How it works

01

Describe it

Type the tattoo you want — subject, style, color or black & grey — or start from one of 45+ ready-made tattoo generators.

02

Refine it

Add reference images, tweak the linework with plain-English edits, and iterate until the design feels like yours.

03

Try it on

Preview the design on a photo of your own arm, leg or back with realistic ink — then upscale it and take it to your artist.

One studio, from idea to ink

Everything after the first render happens in the same place.

Generate

Custom tattoo designs from a sentence. 16 styles, seven aspect ratios, three quality tiers.

Edit

Bolder lines, extra flowers, a different flow — change any design with a plain-English instruction.

Try On Skin

See the tattoo on a photo of your own body — realistic ink, contours and lighting — before you commit.

Upscale

Stencil-ready enlargements up to 128 MP so your artist gets every line crisp.

Animate

Turn a design into a short video — ink reveals, slow pans and shimmer for sharing.

Your references

Up to four reference images per generation — sketches, photos, old flash — woven into the design.

Questions, answered

How is this different from browsing tattoo ideas on Pinterest?

Pinterest shows you tattoos other people already have. Tattoo Generator draws the exact design you describe — your subject, your style, your placement — as original artwork nobody else is wearing.

Can I preview the tattoo on my own skin?

Yes. Upload a photo of your arm, leg, back or chest and the Try On Skin tool applies the design with realistic ink saturation, body contours and lighting — before you ever book the chair.

Can I bring the designs to my tattoo artist?

Absolutely — you own the designs you create. Download them at full resolution (or upscale first) and hand them to your artist as the reference.

How much does it cost?

New accounts get free credits to try it. After that, plans start at $15/month for 1,000 credits — a Draft-quality tattoo design costs 2 credits.
