## In depth

### From idea to flash
Tattoo flash is a clean design on paper — no skin, no background. Asking for “tattoo design on white paper” steers the model to flash, which is easiest for an artist to adapt. Name a tradition (irezumi, American traditional) to get its line weight and palette.

### Designing for the body
A design that looks great on screen can age badly on skin:
- Tiny, dense detail blurs over years — keep small tattoos simple.
- Fine line work needs space between lines.
- Bold outlines and solid black hold up best.
- Always let a professional artist finalise size and placement.

## FAQ

A: Yes. Describe the subject, style and colour and the generator makes finished designs you can take to a tattoo artist as a reference.

Q: Is the AI tattoo generator free?
A: A new account gets 25 free credits on sign-up to test, and Flux 2 Dev is on the free plan. Seedream 5.0 Pro, which gave the cleanest linework, needs a one-time credit pack; credits never expire.

A: Fine line, American traditional, Japanese irezumi, geometric, watercolor, blackwork, minimalist, neo-traditional, script and more — name the style in the prompt.

Q: Can I get a stencil?
