What should I prepare before starting?

Prepare clear source images that you have permission to use. Identify the people or design references, the exact changes, and the details to preserve.

Will the preview show exactly how the tattoo will look on skin?

No. Scale, curvature, ink appearance, and healing can differ. Use the image to discuss placement and design, then have the tattoo artist prepare the final work.

Does generation use credits?

Generation uses credits. Check the selected model’s price and your plan before generating. Regenerating a variation also uses credits; review the first result before making more.

Shape the creative brief

Placement

Choose the body area and the intended orientation.

Design scale

Specify the approximate visual size and spacing around the motif.

Skin relationship

Match perspective, surface curvature, and existing lighting.

Two prompts to start with

Use these written examples as a starting point. Adapt the subject and references to your project; generated results will vary.

First direction

Place my supplied original botanical tattoo design on the outer forearm in my reference photo. Follow the arm's perspective, keep the motif recognizable, and preserve the skin and surrounding image.

Another approach

Preview a small original geometric mountain tattoo on the upper arm in my supplied adult photo. Subtle dark ink, natural skin lighting, modest scale, no changes to the person's pose.

Finishing the result

The image is an approximate preview, not a stencil, placement measurement, or prediction of a healed tattoo. Final design and placement require an artist's review.
