Pet in Fine Line for dog and cat photos, Your Sketch, Cleaned for pencil drawings and Soft Watercolour for colour inside a black outline. The scene puts its own instruction in front of what you type.
Upload the photo, or write the subject, the style, the line weight or shading, the layout (single motif, band or vertical piece) and any words in quotes. Example: My cat Luna, fine line, 8 cm, inner forearm.
If a line is missing or extra, change a single word and generate again. The 3:4 portrait frame suits a forearm piece. To combine several reference photos, use Image.
Upload a sharp photo with the face and ears clear, pick Pet in Fine Line and ask it to keep the markings.
Daylight, the face toward the camera and both ears inside the frame. A blurred or backlit photo gives a portrait with made-up features.
Fine line keeps stripes and fur as black strokes; for colour, switch to Soft Watercolour and describe your pet in the text box.
A small fine line portrait usually goes on the inner forearm, wrist, collarbone or back of the neck. Leave open skin around the eyes and whiskers: very thin lines lose sharpness as they heal.
Photograph the drawing in good light, upload it to Your Sketch, Cleaned and ask it to keep every shape.
Lay the sheet flat in daylight with no shadow from your hand, and shoot from straight above so the proportions stay true; notebook lines are removed in the result.
Image generators tend to redraw a sketch their own way. The scene already asks to keep every shape and add nothing; if something still moves, name what must stay (for example, the crane's left wing) and leave open space between small details.
Fine line for small pieces, watercolour for soft colour inside a black outline, and the flower of your birth month.

Single-needle strokes with no large fills. It looks crisp on day one and softens as it heals, so not every line should be equally thin. Other styles you can type: American traditional, neo-traditional, Japanese, blackwork, minimalist, geometric, black-and-grey realism, dotwork, tribal and script lettering.
Soft washes of colour inside a thin black outline, with open skin around it. Type the subject in the text box; no photo needed.
It follows your birth month and is not the same as a zodiac flower. Add a name under the stem or bundle your family's months into one bouquet: pick Soft Watercolour and type the flowers in the text box.
Bring a high-resolution PNG, check every letter, and the artist redraws it as a stencil for your skin.
An image model can bend letters or misspell words. Put the exact text in quotes, keep it short, check each letter and let the artist set the final script.
Asking for another artist's tattoo, a famous character or a logo copies someone else's work, so describe your own idea. In the US, the Copyright Office and Thaler v. Perlmutter (2025) require a human author for registration; your own changes and arrangement are judged case by case.

Many give a handful of free designs a day, then ask you to pay or wait until tomorrow.
Each design uses credits; the button shows the cost before you generate, based on the model and resolution you pick. Plans are on Pricing.
A tattoo-style drawing in black ink on a plain white background, made from your words or a photo in a few seconds. You reword the prompt and run it again until it fits.
Yes. Use a sharp, well-lit photo where the face and ears are clear, and pick Pet in Fine Line.
Not always. Put the name in quotes, check every letter before the appointment and let the artist choose the final lettering.
It depends on the month: October is marigold and cosmos, May is lily of the valley. It is not your zodiac flower; the table on this page lists all twelve months.
Better not: that is someone else's work. Describe your own idea or an original creature instead.
Yes: in Image, upload a photo of your arm and the design as two references. You will see size and placement, not how it looks once healed.
Yes. Ask for two halves of one idea that each look complete on their own, such as a sun and a moon.
