Our artists for Realistic Tattoos tattoos

Creating a realistic image composition requires a great deal of talent: tattooing the subject onto the skin with a needle is a real challenge. You should only get realistic tattoos done by professional artists with years of experience and plenty of practice. In our tattoo studio in Lucerne, we only work with international tattoo artists who are unique in their field.

Realistic tattoos were inspired and created by the realistic art movement. The aim is to bring a life-like image of living beings or objects onto the skin. Portraits, animals, landscapes or various objects are engraved in 3D in a very detailed and deceptively real way.

Since there are many design options, this style is suitable for most parts of the body. However, you should make sure that the size of the motif is not too small. On areas that are too small, the motif necessarily loses details, which are important for the realistic effect.

For Realistic Tattoos, you need a lot of patience and time, as we often need several sessions for this. Do you have your motive in mind and do you have the necessary patience? Then let's go today Start together! We're looking forward to seeing you.

Our artists for Cover Up Tattoos

Cover-up tattoos are top class. Because this requires many years of experience, talent and a very good imagination. The aim of cover-up tattoos is to make the original tattoo no longer visible and create something new. Numerous factors can play a role in making a tattoo disappear, such as the size of the old tattoo, the colors, the placement and the desired new motif. A cover-up tattoo is usually larger than the original tattoo. The difference to a completely new tattoo lies in the way the color is applied to the skin. The aim is to enclose and cover up existing pigments. Since this technique is more complex, it can take a little longer to implement compared to a traditional tattoo. Several sessions are often required to cover up a tattoo.
