Neatly organized by theme, the clearly executed line drawings cover every conceivable subject area - historical and traditional to modern, from tribal imagery of native American Indians, Japanese and Chinese characters, arcane hieroglyphics to gothic skulls, Celtic amulets, and more.

Whether you want to show off your design or conceal it, this book is packed with hundreds of possibilities.

I’m in agreement with the other two reviewers here, but I thought I would elaborate a little more as to why I think “500 Tattoo Designs” isn’t very good, rather than just saying it isn’t. To begin with, the book is filled with very simple line drawings, some colored, some not, that are so rudimentary they actually remind me of the pictures in a child’s coloring book. The desings are divided up along world cultural areas or groups: Japan, Celtic, Native American, and so on, but there is no explanation offered for any of the meanings of the designs and no real cultural context given besides the area or group of origin. Most of the designs *are* appealing, if simple, but if one were about to have a tattoo permanently inked upon one’s body, I should think that one would certainly want to know not just the meaning of the chosen design but also a bit more about where it originated and who it was conceived for in the first place. I imagine one would hardly want a fertility symbol or religious tattoo if one had no interest in such things to begin with, hence my complaint of no information about the designs.
I believe this book would be better suited to a graphic artist, or maybe even a DIY-er with an upcoming major stencilling project and no ideas, as I feel that many of these designs would make excellent stencils if they were enlarged.
This books looks sleek, if you judge it by its cover, but that is the only “slightly” interesting tattoo in the whole thing. The Book looks like the author simply took Microsoft Word Fonts such as Wingding and others with symbols, and pasted them onto his pages. Its all a load of crap, not worth the paper its printed on. A HUGE disappointment.
Seriously, what is on the cover is no where close to the crap inside. Please save your money. When I read the other reviews I thought, it can’t be that bad. Actually, it turned out worse than what was said. Just like everyone says, it definitely looks exactly like a coloring book. You can actually get better ideas from coloring books. There is no creativity in these designs. They are all boring and very basic.

Are you talking about graphic design or literally fashion design. If you mean just putting a drawing on a t-shirt try checking out Emptees.com you can find someone to hire there, they will take your idea and make it look better, you can then order some t-shirts from idk american apparel or something and take the design to a screen printer with the shirts.
yet more *highfives!
Hot glue them around the edge of a mirror that's shaped to your liking. I have an oval mirror which is decorative and useful at the same time.
