Custom Tattoo Design

I create custom tattoos from your ideas and references.

Personalized Tattoo Concept

A focused consultation to shape your idea into a clear, personal tattoo direction.

A More Personal Way to Shape Your Tattoo

We begin by discussing what you want the tattoo to express, where it will sit, and which visual references feel right. I listen for the details that make the concept meaningful, whether you arrive with a developed idea or only a starting point. Together, we establish the subject, mood, scale, and overall direction before the design takes shape.

Your references help guide the process, but the final concept is developed with your individual tattoo in mind. I consider how the artwork will work with the body, how its details will read, and how the composition can feel balanced over time. The result is a thoughtful design direction that reflects your story rather than simply copying an existing image.

Ideal For

  • Clients with a personal tattoo idea

  • Anyone combining several references

  • First-time tattoo clients seeking guidance

  • Existing collectors planning a meaningful piece

How It Works

  1. Share Your Idea: Send your concept, references, placement, and any useful details.

  2. Refine The Direction: Discuss the visual style, composition, scale, and meaning behind the piece.

  3. Develop The Design: I turn the agreed direction into a considered custom tattoo concept.

About

My artistic approach

I am Lord Eric Badan, a tattooer focused on creating work with intention, character, and a strong sense of individuality. I take time to understand the person behind each idea, then shape the visual direction with a careful eye for composition, detail, and lasting impact. My process is collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in clear communication from the first conversation onward. Custom design is where that approach comes together. I can work from a loose concept, meaningful reference, or a combination of images and influences, developing them into a considered tattoo design. You can expect a personal process, honest guidance, and artwork created to suit your body, preferences, and vision.
