An alien tattoo offers the opportunity to show off the love of all things sci-fi.
If you’re a fan of out of this world shenanigans including a personal encounter with a being from another dimension or a glimpse into your eccentric life, you’ll love this tattoo.
Just like there’s no industry standard meaning behind an alien tattoo, there’s also no unilateral design or color baseline to go off of. Some women’s alien tattoos are traditional black outlines while others are done in full color.
Space is full of mystery, dark nights, pops of random color and shooting stars. All these elements can be combined to create the perfect landscape for an alien tattoo.
A traditional alien tattoo is usually oval-shaped with large eyes, small nose and almost invisible mouth. Other popular alien tattoos are cartoonish by design or modeled after famous aliens made popular via pop culture and Hollywood.
Placement of an alien tattoo is dictated by its size and whether it is part of a bigger picture or designed to stand on its own. Traditional, single alien heads are usually small, which makes them great dainty tattoos for fingers, toes, wrists and ankles.
A full-body alien tattoo is usually bigger than an alien head. The forearm, upper arm and back of the knee are great places for a large, full-body alien. If the alien is going to be part of a bigger picture, you might be able to cover your entire chest or back with an alien-based tattoo.
You may also want to consider adding different elements to an alien tattoo such as UFOs, planets, laser beams the moon or stars. Find inspiration in these traditional and landscape women’s alien tattoos.
