Fine line tattoos are more than just minimalistic designs and are now paired with concepts such as geometric shapes, animals, skulls, complex single needle designs, and tattoos shared between friends.
A single continuous line simplifies an otherwise complex piece of art, while a single needle tattoo allows your artist to craft intensely complex designs in small areas.
Those wishing to get inked with friends or family often get fine line tattoo designs for eye-catching yet inexpensive and less painful commemorative ink.
Previously fine line tattoos were considered different and unconventional but they’ve grown as a genre beyond simple black ink and negative space tattoos.
Check out this awesome collection of the top 45 best fine line tattoos which veer from simple and remarkable through to difficult highly complex pieces. I’m sure you’ll find an example you can apply to your next piece.
