What is Make Ink?

make.ink is an AI tattoo generator that creates tattoo-ready designs from text prompts and reference images. It produces multiple style options (realistic, blackwork, dotwork, geometric, Japanese, lettering, watercolor, tribal, portrait, minimalist) and supports aspect ratios and placement presets for different body parts.

Studio-focused controls include style locks, palette and reference weighting, negative prompts, inpainting, batch variations, and private galleries for client review. Outputs include print-ready exports, stencil-ready PNG/PDF bundles, 1024px/HD renders, and upscaling for artist use.
