While it is commonly associated with photo-realistic designs and the complex shading typified in Chicano tattooing, black and gray ink is perfectly suited to a variety of tattoo styles and approaches to bringing your bunny to life.

Whether it is a long-legged great hare bounding across the skin, an elaborate geometric tattoo of contrasting lines and shapes, or a realistic cute bunny tattoo, black and gray is a great choice for rabbit design ideas.

Other tattoo collectors like to use a denser, darker style of ink known as blackwork. Fully saturated black can be used to increase contrast and make for exciting black rabbit pieces, or something solid and simple like a Playboy bunny tattoo.

Sharing the bold lines and bright colors of American traditional tattoo work, neo-traditional tattoos have continued to gain popularity in animal tattoo expression. One reason for the growing interest in neo-traditional tattoos is the increased detail, interesting subjects, and color schemes.

While a multi-colored bunny tattoo or funky rabbit’s ear probably wouldn’t be a common concept in a traditional old school piece, it is a great choice for a neo-traditional rabbit design.

A rabbit tattoo is often used to commemorate the wearer’s love of nature and the outdoors and flowers are a great addition to almost any rabbit design. 

There are a variety of rabbit designs that can benefit from flowers and they are more diverse than one might guess.

The classic Disney rabbit depiction is there, but more unique designs such as shadow puppet pieces and colorful but realistic bunny and flower tattoos create fantastic custom body art.
