#8: Traditional Cherub Kewpie Tattoo

This traditional style tattoo is a unique and non traditional take on a cherub tattoo. This cherub is celebrating Halloween in its bat suit, and although his face looks innocent, his mischievousness shows through even in a tattoo.

#7: Cherub with Crown Tattoo

Ordaining himself the unofficial king of the cherubs Cupid began his tyrannical reign the moment the crown was placed on his child sized head. Cherub after cherub was methodically eliminated in what is now known as "The Great Cherub Wars". This tattoo shows ruthless warlord Cupid as he emotionlessly takes aim with his trademark weapon the bow, about to mow down another innocent cherub to secure his place on the throne.

#6: Cherub Cupid Tattoo

Nothing is cuter than forcing someone to love someone else completely against their will. Cupid knows, no means yes,  and his preferred poison for incapacitating his victims is arrows, not pills. This Cupid tattoo shows him about to strike again, how sweet. What can I say? Cupid will be Cupid!

#5: Two Cherubs Tattoo

What's better than one cute cherub? Two cute cherubs! Add a big wet smooch, and this cherub tattoo is enough to melt even the coldest heart. The girl cherub in this tattoo doesn't seem too thrilled about getting this kiss, luckily I know a particular cherub that can help her get in the mood.... wink, wink Cupid!

#4: Crying Cherub Tattoo

Tears, horns, face tats. This cherub tattoo has more drama than a Shakespeare play, or even a Friends episode . However, all these elements blend together beautifully to create a one of a kind cherub tattoo.

#3: Cherub Resting on Skull with Scythe Tattoo 

Normally bringers of hope and love, this cherub tattoo is a little angel of death. Lounging on a skull instead of a cloud, with his scythe instead of a bow, this little cherub has his mind on the killing and the killing on his mind.

#1: Tattooed Cherub Tattoo

This cherub tattoo is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. Let's take inventory, from top to bottom we have; A halo, horns, wings, cloud, rain, and sh@t ton of tattoos. I am going to say that it is symbol of balance, a representation of good and evil, day and night, lite and full flavored beer. It is wicked, yet beautiful, and it comes in at #1 on our cherub tattoo ideas list.
