Give a memory a form
A portrait, an animal or a meaningful image. Realism uses light, shadow and detail to make your subject recognisable.
Realistic tattoos work with proportions, light and shadow. The subject might be a person, an animal or an object connected to a memory. Hyperrealism places additional emphasis on fine detail and texture.
A good reference photograph makes a difference: sharpness, lighting and a clear angle give the artist more information. For portraits, we discuss which photograph best captures the person’s character and how it can translate onto skin.
More detail needs enough space. We consider size and placement before finalising the composition. Bring your photographs and story to Bunker Tattoo in Breda to explore the possibilities for a realistic tattoo.
