Tattoo Johnny tattoo design downloads are scanned at high resolutions to give you the most flexibility possible. You can use your computer to resize the image to make it larger or smaller. You can also print the design at the original size and your tattooist will be able to resize it for you. Keep in mind that detailed images should be tattooed large enough so that the details are clear and easy for the tattooist to accurately render on your skin.

Combining parts of different images is a very common way of creating a custom one-of-a-kind tattoo. Some people will actually mix up to 5 or more designs to make a single unique masterpiece. After you select a few designs and download them to you computer you can arrange them just how you like. You might like the wings from one design and the body from another. You may use parts of each tattoo and combine them to make one really great piece of art.

Just click on any of the thumbnail images to see a large preview image. We made these preview images large enough to get a good clear idea of what each design looks like but not large enough to use for your tattoo. Larger preview images are often stolen and do not include the original artist stencil. Be sure to download your tattoo design and matching stencil to be sure to get the high-quality tattoo you deserve.

Most people don't realize that every tattoo design has a matching stencil. When you get tattooed, the stencil is applied directly to your skin . The tattooist will use a machine called a "liner" to set your stencil permanently into the skin. Do not be tempted to get tattooed solely from your color reference or from an inferior hand-traced stencil. Trying to trace or copy a stencil is the number one cause of bad tattoos. With Tattoo Johnny's ORIGINAL ARTIST STENCILS, every curve and detail of your design will be accurate.

Also be sure to bring a good copy of your reference image. Your tattooist will use the reference image as a guide to see how your tattoo should be colored or shaded.

Every Tattoo Johnny tattoo design download will include a reference image and a tattoo stencil. Simply print the stencil and the reference image on regular paper and bring them to the tattooist of your choice.

Currently tattoo wishlists do not expire. When you set up your FREE wishlist account you will have access to your tattoo design wishlist anytime, from any computer with internet access.
