This tattoo combines Linework and Geometric styles and even the specialized technique of Whip Shading. In the hands of a skilled artist thankfully it all works. The dotted sphere creates the illusion of movement while the straight lines are like exclamation points calling attention to the design. And of course there’s the glimmer of light reflecting off the eye. Big props to Artist This tattoo combines linework, geometric designs, and even the unique Whip Shading technique. Thanks to the efforts of a talented artist, everything comes together. The dotted sphere generates the illusion of motion, whereas the straight lines resemble exclamation points that indicate the design’s calligraphy. In addition, there is a glint of light bouncing off the eye. Huge congratulations to the artist

There is no denying that the Sea Turtle resembles one. Check for geometric style: this tattoo features a variety of geometric patterns. Minimal style; this may not be as clear as it seems. It’s crucial to keep in mind that this style is determined by the number of images rather than the size of the tattoo. Instead, it’s the capacity to reduce a “story” to its most fundamental elements. The components that come together to form a collective narrative.

Something delicate and elegant to fit your forearm? These flower-adorned sea turtles might be perfect for you. Even though pure black ink is dyed, it’s the dampened down to produce a variety of gray tones. The grays used in this design are subtle, which makes them the ideal complement.

The shading and lines of this sea turtle are really lovely. If the pattern seems familiar, it’s likely because you’ve seen Maori or Polynesia artwork before. Adding interest and variety to the design is achieved by varying the pattern from the shell to the flippers and head. Retains your interest for.An additional look

Indeed, there is a flotilla—more precisely, a flotilla of sea turtles—right on this woman’s thigh. In fact, that is the name given to a group of sea turtles. This group appears to be taking a leisurely swim together, as evidenced by their varied orientations and outstretched flippers.

I can assure you that this sea turtle is grinning. This is due to the way white ink is used to detail the head. It’s also used in other places for extra defibritio. Combining subtle and slightly bolder shading, this tattoo is sure to catch people’s attention.

It appears that this sea turtle is swimming in a refreshing area of open ocean. While blue is undoubtedly symbolic of water, the mood is primarily created by the blue’s trailing streaks and splashes. Using both black and white ink, the shading and detail of the Sea Turtle is even more intricate. Very Excellent. Kudos to Seoul, Korea, home of countless talented tattoo artists, and their artist, @pokhy_tattoo on Instagram.

The original association of blackwork style with tribal designs has evolved to encompass a wider range of themes, as evidenced by this tattoo of a sea turtle. The main feature of this style is the use of opaque black, which is frequently employed to create heavy patterns. The creation of detail is done through the use of adjectival or lexical space. The outcome: audacious and striking designs

This Sea Turtle comes to life with just a few lines, a straightforward pattern, and some color. Just as charming as the Sea Turtle itself are the three adorable little lilies that portray the ocean. If you want something quick and easy, minimalistic style is the way to go.

The distinctive feature of this sea turtle is its thick black shell. It appears as though a magic marker was used, but it did so very steadily. This simplicity blends in nicely with the flippers’ and the shell’s graphic patterns.

This sea turtle appears to be closely pursuing his North Star. Of course, this design is made more interesting by the vertical line that aligns with the other geometric style elements. Easy and Delicious

Is this an embroidered patch like one you’d put on your jacket? Of course we know it’s the work of a skilled artist applying ink to skin; all in a manner resembling embroidery. The cross stitch pattern of embroidery is actually duplicated making this so real looking. It even appears to have texture. With beautiful added silky-looking colors, it’s an obvious standout.

The components of this design fit perfectly together just like a jigsaw puzzle. The Sea Turtle, shells and florals come together as one; never getting lost within the design. That’s achieved with color selection that defines each of these components. The result: a truly impressive tattoo and one of the prettiest.

This is such an awesome tattoo. There’s great shading, great detailing and great overall design. Replicating the ocean floor on the shell is creative and also difficult. As this is a small space, it obviously requires considerable technical skill. The choice to surround this Sea Turtle with a vast area of negative space replicates the vastness of the ocean. Then there’s the slice of pizza? Props to Artist

Skilled inking and design are on definite display in this tattoo. Subtle gray tones provide contrast and detailing while white ink accents are used to create sources of light. Glimmers of light can even be seen reflecting off the Crescent moon, foliage and metal ring. The beautifully shaded rectangle is then like icing on the cake. What this tattoo means; not sure. What do you think?

Looking like a page from a marine biology textbook, this Sea Turtle is as real as it gets. To achieve this, the artist must be able to reproduce proportions, asymmetry and sources of light. In this regard shading and contrast are required as without them 3D can’t be achieved. Obviously this artist gets an A+

This tattoo showcases skilled shading and contrast; all necessary when the goal is a realistic 3D rendering. The shading over the shell is nuanced but look closely and you’ll see tiny areas of negative space creating a subtle pattern. Of course larger areas of negative space are also used to create the familiar shell pattern. Then there’s the water. It magically comes alive using only black ink and tones of gray. Beautiful. Props to Artist

X-Ray style allows us to see through an image; or at least think we can. It’s a technique that adds depth to a design as well as a dreamy feel. Here it looks like this little Sea Turtle is skimming over the water with his reflection visible from below. Makes It Feels Just Like A Summer Day

There’s beautiful shading and contrast in this tattoo; all very precisely done within small spaces. The winter scene is an unexpected backdrop as Sea Turtles are typically not found in cold climates. And the maze replacing the shell; no idea what it means. What do you think?

This tattoo appears to have been inked separate from the other two although it definitely blends in. Specifically it matches the style of the shoulder tattoo and actually incorporates florals into its design. It’s so interesting how dotwork is combined with a few heavier inked black lines to create a sense of lightness; making these two Sea Turtles seem safe and sound in their home.
