The first tip has to do with the tools you are using to locate the leg tattoo design you want. I am going to stick with the most common tool, which 90+% of us use. This tool is the search engine. While they will bring up a wide variety of galleries that might have a leg tattoo design or two, most of these places will be packed with low end artwork that is somewhere around nine years old. As a matter of fact, you will notice that most galleries have the same exact tattoo as two hundred other websites.
The worst part about galleries you find when using search engines is the fact that a lot of them post images that were not even meant to be used as real tattoos! That's right, which leads me to tip number two. Many galleries only care about one particular thing, which his loading their website with as much artwork as possible. They don't care if half of their inventory is not even worthy of being tattooed. It's sad that they would do this, because there might be a leg tattoo design that you like and pick it.
People end up doing this and then run to get it inked. They are in for a surprise when it comes out looking nowhere near as good and crisp as it looked on the paper they printed it on. This is what happens when people choose random designs that were not drawn precisely for tattoos.
Tip three should help you find a lot of the hidden galleries out there that might just have the perfect leg tattoo design for you. Just remember that you might run into low end artwork wherever you go, so you always need to be on the lookout for it. A good way to cut a lot of that type of art out of the equation is to dive into internet forums. They are filled with topics revolving around the subject of tattoos and you will find some very knowledgeable people in there.
They even post links to the great galleries they have found over the years and most should have a great leg tattoo design to look at. Heck, most of the galleries will have tons of them. I have always been fond of forums when looking for new, fresh tattoos and you can use them to find that great leg tattoo design. It's just an alternative solution to the mind numbing number of generic galleries that search engines put in front of you.
No matter what kind of leg tattoo design you think you like, just make certain you are 100% sure about it before getting it tattooed.
