Kid Buu
Artist - Jose Morales
This striking tattoo brings to life the chaotic and fearsome presence of Kid Buu. Jose has achieved a highly realistic depiction, emphasizing the intense and malevolent expression that Kid Buu is known for.
Rendered in a vibrant palette of reds and pinks, the tattoo captures the raw, muscular form of Kid Buu, accentuating his iconic head shape and sinister eyes. The shading and highlights give the piece a three-dimensional quality, making it appear as though Buu is emerging from the skin. The use of black as a contrasting background further enhances the boldness of the character, making him stand out with an almost lifelike intensity.
Black and White Majin Buu Tattoo
Artist - Jaume Prieto Jiménez
Check out this absolutely stunning black and gray portrayal of Kid Buu. His eyes exude malice, and his mouth forms a wicked grin, expertly capturing the character's chaotic and destructive nature. Jaume's meticulous attention to detail in shading the muscles and defining the contours of Kid Buu's face brings out his raw strength and formidable presence, truly bringing the character to life.
Super Buu
Artist - Mark McCullough
This incredible tattoo by Mark McCullough brings to life the formidable Super Buu, the result of Evil Buu consuming Good Buu. This transformation unleashes a Majin Buu with unparalleled power and significantly enhanced mental capacity, far surpassing the earlier, more innocent version.
The tattoo showcases Super Buu in a black work style, characterized by its intricate stippling shading technique. McCullough's use of this method adds a remarkable depth and texture to the piece, making Super Buu's menacing eyes and wicked laugh stand out vividly against the skin. The stippling technique provides a nuanced gradient that gives the tattoo a dynamic and lifelike quality, enhancing Super Buu's intimidating presence.
The Innocent Fat Majin Buu
Artist - Crush Captain
While many people might prefer a tattoo of Kid Buu because of his tough image, my personal favorite has always been the innocent and chubby original Majin Buu.
This vibrant and playful tattoo perfectly captures the playful side of Majin Buu in all his sweet-loving glory. The tattoo shows Buu joyfully enjoying a multi-colored ice cream cone, with his tongue hanging out in eager anticipation of the sugary treat. The artist, Crush Captain, skillfully used a bold and bright color palette, making the tattoo burst with life and energy.
Majin Buu M Symbol
Artist - Zed Zeitzmann
This Majin Buu ‘M’ tattoo is something that Dragonball fans will instantly recognize. The 'M' symbol, prominently displayed on Majin Buu's trousers in all his forms, is a mark associated with Babidi, signifying control and immense power. This symbol is not exclusive to Majin Buu – it's also famously seen on characters like Majin Vegeta, making it a versatile emblem for any fan of the series.
