Micro-realistic tattoos are not just ink on skin; every piece demands hours, if not days of painstaking work. An extraordinary understanding of shading, shadowing, and colour blending is needed to recreate the subtleties of a photograph or a real-life subject.
Our very own in-house tattoo artist Ink By Emre is also a master in the art of engraving and worked with luxury brands such as Killian, Christian Dior, Roja Dove, Harrods, Selfridges and luxury boutiques in Mayfair so when getting a tattoo with him, you are in highly skilled, highly capable hands.
“People are often surprised by the costs of micro-realistic tattoos but the price is reflected in the amount of work that the tattoo artists have to do” – Ink By Emre, Wanda Tattoo Studio
While the final piece may look simple, the artist’s journey begins far before the needle touches the skin. Sketching, colour selection, and composing the design to fit the contours of the body all require ample preparation time. Micro-realistic tattoos are a true testament to the skill, patience, and passion of tattoo artists.
Ever since Ink By Emre joined our team at Wanda Tattoo, we’ve had the pleasure of being able to see his incredible work up close and we love it! Outside of being a master in fine line tattoos, Emre is also an amazing micro-realism tattoo artist.
These tattoos are a true art form that requires an exceptional level of skill and attention to detail, giving a photo-realistic tattoo portrayal of anything from a rocket launching to a portrait of your loved one. We wanted to shed some light on this style of tattooing so you can be more informed when you book your tattoo.
Wanda Tattoo Studio and Ink By Emre take the need for attention to detail in tattoos to a whole new level! We execute our micro-realistic tattoos with single needles! This means where there is detail, it won’t be missed and there won’t be a thick or blurry line in sight.
“I prefer to work with single needles for micro-realistic tattoos because it means lines are clean and crisp. You wouldn’t engrave a glass bottle with a blunt tool, so why create a tattoo that needs detail with tools that make that a harder task?” Ink By Emre, Wanda Tattoo Studio
At Wanda Tattoo Studio, we are committed to being the best tattoo studio in London – that means providing the best tattoo artists from all over the world, the best environment to get your skin art and the clearest information for you to make the best choice for your piece.
