Placement & Scale

Anatomical optimization suggests FOREARM (Vertical orientation aligns with the sword and upright figure), CALF (Provides a flat, elongated surface for the vertical composition), UPPER ARM (Complements the natural vertical flow of the upper body). To preserve clarity, a minimum scale of 15cm is recommended for long-term ink integrity.

Longevity Prediction

Over 5-10 years, the delicate stippled shading and sketch-style lines will soften and expand slightly, giving the tattoo a smoother, more graphite-like appearance. The fine strings on the scales and details in the hand run a moderate risk of blurring together if executed below the recommended size. Maintaining high-contrast negative space during application is crucial for long-term readability.

Technical Spec

Professional specialization notes: Utilize a 5RL for the structural lines of the sword and outer silhouette, transitioning to a tight 3RL for the sketch-like details and facial features. Execute the stipple shading in the hair and blindfold using a 3RL at a low voltage with a consistent hand speed to mimic graphite. Leave sufficient negative space around the scale strings to prevent pigment migration from closing the gaps.
