I grew up watching my older cousins draw, do graffiti, and obsess over anime, never imagining it could actually become my career. I eventually left a steady kitchen job to chase tattooing full-time, and every time I see someone light up after seeing their favorite character brought to life, it reminds me why I took the risk in the first place.

How the Process Works

I partner with Animetattoos.com to sponsor a few anime tattoos every month — up to $400 toward the project. The sponsorship isn’t for every tattoo, it’s meant for larger, portfolio-worthy pieces that both of us are excited about and that will be featured on my Animetattoos.com profile once complete.

What Makes a Tattoo Idea Stand Out

What Makes a Tattoo Idea Stand Out

What Makes a Tattoo Idea Stand Out

Not every idea gets sponsored and that’s on purpose! We’re not looking for “another cool tattoo”. We’re looking for ideas that mean something to you.

Not every idea gets picked and that’s on purpose! We’re not looking for “another cool tattoo”. We’re looking for ideas that mean something to you.

It's Personal

The best ideas come from moments that stuck with you, the characters that got you through that low point, the scene you can bring yourself back to by closing your eyes.

1 of 1

Let’s be honest.. You probably don’t want the same tattoo as a thousand other people. Sponsored ideas are the ones that only belong to you.

Let’s be honest.. You probably don’t want the same tattoo as a thousand other people. Special ideas are the ones that only belong to you.

Storytelling

The best tattoos aren’t just well done, they’re the moments that mean the most to you made permanent. A specific scene, turning point, or feeling you want to carry with you. If you can explain it, we can bring it to life!

Creativity

We’re looking for ideas that aren’t just copies of what’s already out there. A unique pose, a creative twist, a mashup of two characters who never met. Let’s tell a familiar story in a new way!
