How it works

The whole tattoo in frame, in focus, taken as straight on as you can manage.

Print it at size

Open the result in Stencil Maker to set line weight and print at the exact size.

Questions

Does it work on a curved arm or a twisted pose?

Yes. The AI redraws the design as if it were laid flat on paper, so the curve of the body is taken out. Parts that are hidden around the side of the limb cannot be seen, so they are guessed. Check those edges.

What about old, faded or blurry tattoos?

Faded lines are redrawn sharp. The blurrier the photo, the more the AI has to guess, so compare the result with the tattoo before using it.

Can I copy someone else's tattoo?

Only with permission. A tattoo is an artist's work made for one person. Use this for your own tattoos, for touch-ups and matching pieces, or for designs you have been asked to reproduce.

How do I print the stencil at the right size?

Press Adjust and print under the result. It opens in Stencil Maker, where you enter the width in cm or inches and print or download at that exact size.

Is my photo stored?

The photo is sent to our AI provider to be redrawn and is not stored by us. The result is kept in My Ink, in your own browser.
