16. Realistic Video Game Tattoos
Realism may be the hardest style of all to apply to video game tattoos because so few video games make use of realism in their original form. There are a few that do adopt realism, meaning that this style of application can create incredible tattoos. A skilled artist can adapt stylized images with shading accuracy, correct color palettes and light manipulation to create realistic anatomically correct pieces that also obey the laws of physics and nature.
17. Pokemon Video Game Tattoos
Some video games look visually more impressive than others. Pokemon is at the head of that pack, with a bestiary of hundreds of cleanly designed and richly colored characters that were made for tattooing. Your artist needs to make sure that the outline is a solid, cleanly applied black (usually quite thick in a way reminiscent of American traditional tattooing), and that the single fill color saturation is spot on. Bu utilizing such recognizable characters if one aspect is off, the whole image can be compromised.
