Dragon Tattoo Designs


Nothing looks more awe-inspiring and impressive than a tattoo of a dragon when it has been done by the best artist. These mythological beasts have managed to capture our imagination for centuries and you cannot deny how great they look when they are proudly displayed on someone's skin.

While styles of tattooing will come and go, over time, the popularity of dragon tattoo designs remains pretty constant. This is primarily down to the fact that a dragon piece can be moulded to be as big as the wearer wants and can be tattooed onto absolutely any part of the body. From the side of the neck, right down to your ankle, trust me, there are numerous designs that will look great on you.

This genre of tattooing can work well for either sex. Ladies may prefer to opt for a less aggressive-looking dragon design: one with ample color and surrounded by other more feminine features. Men are the ones who will usually choose a dragon as a tattoo, however, and this has to be due to the supreme power and status that is afforded through proudly wearing such a piece.

If you are looking for a truly versatile tattoo design, hold it right there, folks, as dragons are all of this and much more. If you like your pieces to exude vibrant and intricate color detail, dragon tattoos will definitely do that. On the other hand, if you prefer tattoos that use colors far more simply: they are equally great.

Placement wise, the world really is your oyster when it comes to dragon tattoo designs. For the girls: they may like a piece on the lower back; perhaps on the top of the shoulder; and such a tattoo would look very tasteful close to the ankle. Men may look to take this even further: these designs work well as a larger piece - a full or half sleeve; a chest plate; or even covering the whole of the back area. Japanese panelling and shading will blend in with the piece beautifully and there are also designs that incorporate plenty of tribal background work.

Dragon tattoo designs are as popular today as they have always been and given the versatility and sheer number of possible pieces to choose from, this fascination with these mythical creatures appears to be showing no signs of waning anytime soon.
