Think aloud
You don’t realize how tiny you are until you look up into the sky and it hits you that you’re just a part of the whole wide universe. If you’re obsessed with planets, galaxies, and other celestial bodies, then you may consider getting a space tattoo. But which design shows your love for the cosmos the best?
A great thing about tattoos is that you can personalize them and give them the meaning you want. There are no restrictions or rules that you have to follow. So, when it comes to space tattoos, you can literally get them for whatever reason you want to.
Maybe you’re an adventurist and think of the universe as the greatest adventure you’d like to conquer. Maybe space represents your spiritual journey and a way to explore the deepest parts of your being.
Space is often seen as a symbol of freedom and independence. So, your wish to get a tattoo of it could be a reminder of the importance of living your life by your own set of rules.
No matter what, space tattoos are truly magical and breathtaking. It doesn’t matter if you opt for a black and gray one or choose to introduce some colors into it, we’re sure that you’ll be impressed with it.
Let’s get right into the exploration of some of the possible designs you could opt for. Here’s how you can wear a part of the universe on your skin.
Black (and gray) space tattoos
Are you into complex designs that tell the story and take a moment to figure out what’s actually going on? Then you’re going to love this tattoo because it’s full of little details that create a meaningful piece of art.
If you’re looking for a tattoo that will represent your spiritual awakening, this design is the way to go. In the same way this astronaut dives deep into space, you’ll dive deep into your self-exploration journey.
We love this big and bold design due to all the different elements that make it special. Planets, all the fine lines, and the stippling method make this tattoo one of a kind.
Sometimes, the space is within you and you just have to let yourself enjoy everything you have to offer. This tattoo is perfect for all of you artistic souls who think and feel deeper than the rest of the world.
What about Pluto and Saturn surrounded by organic lines? This tattoo gives you a feeling that you’re in the space even though it’s black and gray.
A design such as this one will look amazing on your arm or leg since it’s vertical. These two parts of your body will allow this tattoo to stand out in its full glory.
Space tattoos offer you a ton of possibilities and elements that you can include which is why they’re often big in size. But if that’s not your preferred aesthetic, you can always choose to tone things down with a design such as this one.
This one is for all of you minimalists out there who don’t like overly complicated tattoos. Even though this design is made out of a few simple lines, it still has the meaning you’re looking for.
This tattoo is a cool take on the usual space tattoos. It’s straightforward yet so different from everything you’ve seen. And we have to give it credit for how clean and neat it looks. Thumbs up!
Colorful space tattoos
Naturally, space tattoos can be extremely colorful and vibrant. It’s all a matter of preference on how bright you want them to be. This design plays with a bit of color but it’s not in-your-face. Now, the real question is whether this is something you prefer.
We love how this tattoo combines the vibrancy of the planets with the black and gray astronaut. It’s a perfect blend between the two which is why it could be a great choice when you’re looking to introduce some color into your ink.
If you wish to, you can always go all out with a bolder design such as this one. It’s not only bigger in size but it also plays with different shades, creating a real effect of being in space.
Did someone ask for colors? We think that this tattoo will satisfy your need for bright and vibrant shades. They’re probably the main reason why this design stands out on the skin.
This design gives you a feel of a brush stroke that’s filled in with celestial bodies and galaxies. When you close your eyes and think of a space tattoo, we’re sure that something like this comes to your mind.
Watercolor style is one of the best methods you can use when you want to add some colors to your design. We also love the way letters are achieved by leaving negative spaces within the design.
This tattoo reminds us of a cartoon. Somehow, it looks childish and artistic all at the same time which goes to show just how much skill you need to come up with a design such as this one.
This planetary system is a great option not only for lovers of space but also for astrologists. The placement of this tattoo is perfect since we know how tricky it is to get a rounded tattoo on this part of the body.
This tattoo is flashy, vibrant, and not for everyone. It’s definitely a bold choice so if you decide to go with it, just be aware that people are going to ask you questions about it.
This design isn’t as bold as some of the previous ones but it introduces a touch of color into a black and gray tattoo. You can always opt for another shade if blue isn’t exactly the color of your dreams.
This circular tattoo gives you a real celestial feel. Even though it’s a smaller design, it makes you feel like you’re staring right into space.
Who said that you can’t get an impressive small tattoo? This design successfully fights against all odds and shows you just how much you can achieve with the right choice of vibrant colors.
