How to Create a Tattoo Design with AI in 3 Steps

No drawing skills needed. The free AI tattoo design generator does the sketching while you make the choices that matter.

  1. Prompt 'A swallow carrying a rose' with placement and proportion options beside two finished swallow tattoos1

    Describe your idea

    Type a memory, an animal, a name or a symbol, or upload a photo. Pick a style and a body placement so the tattoo design is shaped for where it will live.

  2. One peony and butterfly tattoo shown in fine line, blackwork, Japanese, watercolor, neo traditional and dotwork styles2

    Generate and refine

    Get finished artwork in seconds, then remix it, switch the style or add lettering until one AI tattoo design feels right.

  3. The same fine line moth tattoo previewed on a forearm, shoulder blade, ribs and ankle3

    Preview it on your skin

    Place the design on a photo of your arm, back or ankle, adjust the size and angle, and download a reference for your tattoo artist.

AI Tattoo Generator

Describe a memory, an animal or a symbol in plain words and the AI tattoo generator turns it into a finished tattoo design in fine line, blackwork, Japanese and many more styles. Set the placement and proportions first, so the artwork is shaped for a forearm, spine or ribs instead of a blank square.

  • Choose from 12 styles and 14 body placements
  • Start from words or a reference image
  • Add a name or date with eight font directions
  • Download, save, favorite or remix every result

Virtual Tattoo Try-on

Drop any tattoo design onto a photo of your own arm, back or ankle, then move, scale and rotate it until the size feels right. The virtual tattoo try-on saves that preview, so your artist sees exactly where you want the piece.

  • Use your own body photo or a sample
  • Move, scale and rotate in Classic mode for free
  • Let AI placement follow curves and lighting
  • Download a placement reference for your artist

Image to Tattoo

Upload a pet portrait, a bouquet or a pencil sketch and Image to Tattoo redraws it as an AI tattoo design while keeping the subject recognizable. Switch between realism, single-line and bolder styles, and compare each version with the original photo.

  • Works with photos, sketches and logos you own
  • Drag the Before/After divider to compare details
  • Set style, placement and level of detail
  • Keep favorites and download the original file

Tattoo Cover Up

Photograph an old or faded tattoo, brush over the part you want gone, and the AI tattoo cover up tool proposes a new tattoo design dense enough to hide it. Pick Full Cover for a fresh start or Rework & Extend to build on the lines you already have.

  • Full Cover and Rework & Extend modes
  • Brush, erase and undo your selection
  • Skin outside the selection stays untouched
  • Compare concepts before you book a session
