Ideas for spear tattoo design

Spear tattoos, due to their proportions, are almost always located on long but narrow parts of the body, such as arms or legs at the sides, vertically on the ribs or on the sides of the fingers. A muscular and trained man about to throw a javelin is a very striking tattoo and also difficult to create. They are fabulous on the upper back, on the arm or on the thighs and calves.
