What is a geek or anime tattoo
It's a tattoo inspired by anime, manga, video games, movies and TV series. It can recreate a character, reproduce a manga panel or build a new composition with elements from a universe you love.
The challenge is staying true to the original style, with each work's linework, proportions and expressions, while adapting the design to work on the skin and on your body.
Color, blackwork or black and grey
Geek tattoos can go in very different directions. In color, the character gets the colors of the original work. In blackwork, the manga linework shows with bold outlines and solid black areas. In black and grey, shading adds volume and mood to the scene.
The choice is made with the artist, considering the style of the work, the placement and the result you want. At Row, Alex Anúbis works in all three.
How to request your project
Tell us which character, scene or work you want and the placement, and send references: anime screenshots, manga pages or artwork you like. The clearer the reference, the more faithful the design.
The artist builds the composition and shares the price and estimated number of sessions.
