You have 2 choices if you want to design your own tattoo: Either you be the artist or you use an artist.
1. Being the artist.

Your best bet is to look through a tattoo gallery online at all of the existing high quality designs and then get a sense of how your design needs to look for it to be an effective and striking tattoo.
2. Using an artist.

Before you bring in your artist, first you should write down ideas and have examples ready of what style and feel you want the tattoo design to be. The best thing to do is to look at an online tattoo gallery and pick out a handful of high quality designs which are similar in style and feel to what you are after. Then your artist will have a good idea of how to best draw your design. ( By Chess McDoogle )
