#10: Chinese Style Tiger Tattoo

China is the land where the Tiger is king, that's why a Chinese style Tiger tattoo is such a good idea. This Tiger tattoo is done in blackwork, but it would also look just as good in color.

#9: Tribal Tiger Tattoo

Nothing is more in than the 90s right now, and nothing is more 90s than tribal tattoos. This tribal tattoo with the dueling Tigers is great no matter what decade you get it (or century, that is how really how long tribal has been popular).

#8: Traditional Color Tiger Head Tattoo

Tiger tattoos are also a tradition in America, as you can see from this American traditional style Tiger tattoo. The placement is excellent too, that is of course, if you truly do have the heart of a Tiger...

#7: Geometric Tiger Tattoo

Patterns and shapes have always captured the human eye. This tattoo combines  those with the natural patterns and beauty of the Tigers coat. It also incorporates even more natural beauty by adding flowers.

#6: Traditional Tigers Head Blackwork Tattoo

A traditional blackwork Tiger just looks powerful, fierce, and classic. In its simplicity you find its beauty, no ink wasted, all used perfectly. Just the way a Tiger moves, everything intentional, nothing unnecessary.

#5: Tiger Cub Tattoo

We all start out vulnerable and full of wonder, even the most fearsome beasts like the Tiger. This tiger tattoo shows the softer side, and almost makes you want to snuggle with Tiger cub. However, it still is a Tiger so it would probably bite your f@$kn face off.

#4: Tiger and Lotus Tattoo

The Lotus and Tiger are both significant because of the spiritual meaning they hold. The lotus symbolizes spiritual awakening and the Tiger strength. These two combined are a symbol of the the strength and courage you need to find yourself, and to be yourself.

#3: Tiger Spirit Tattoo

This ghost Tiger tattoo is as spooky as it is beautiful. Expressing the power of the spirit even beyond the grave, the Tiger tattoo looks amazing and surreal, as the Tiger glides on the clouds, and red fire emanates from his eyes.

#2: Realistic Tiger In Trees Tattoo

You can almost feel the Tiger stalking his prey as his head disappears and reappears, its markings seamlessly blending in with the vegetation around him. All you can see is the haunting glint in his eyes as he moves ever closer...

#1: Realistic Tiger Tattoo

Just like the previous Tiger tattoo this one is just as amazing and life-like, it must be something with the, eye...

'It's the eye of the tiger'
'It's the skill of the tat'
'An Ink Lord so great, there is no rival'
'You better tip more than a fiver'
'For tattoo like that"
'And he's tattooing us all with, the eye of the tiger'
