2. Color Friendship Tattoos

For some people black and gray simply are not enough to fully express themselves. For these folks color in a tattoo is a must. These vibrant colors are the perfect way to capture the importance of friendships and let everyone that sees them know how much the individuals mean to each other.

That being said, the variety of styles and designs that incorporate color ink are endless. Some people choose designs that are reminiscent of comic book art—some people choose to get actual comic book art tattooed on them—while others prefer to use color as a way to enhance photorealistic portrait work, taking these vivid pieces to the next level. Perhaps the most eye-catching of these tattoos use loose frameworks and large swaths of color ink to recreate the vibrant effect of watercolor paintings on the wearer’s body.

However they choose to incorporate color into their designs, these friendship tattoos are great examples of the style and are sure to turn heads.

These excellent tattoos use fully saturated color to recreate the popular cartoon characters, The Powerpuff Girls, which no doubt hold special meaning to the wearers.
