Custom Sleeve Design
A considered sleeve plan gives your ideas room to develop into one connected piece.
A More Personal Way to Build Your Sleeve
I design full and partial sleeves around your preferred imagery, style, and the natural shape of your arm. The process considers how each element sits on its own and how it connects with the sections around it. This creates a composition that can be built over time without losing its overall direction.
Sessions are approached with care and attention to linework, shading, scale, and placement. Whether you are starting with a clear concept or bringing together several ideas, I help shape the project into a cohesive tattoo that feels personal and visually balanced.
Ideal For
Clients planning a full sleeve
Partial sleeves with room to grow
Connected ideas needing one clear direction
Detailed, custom tattoo projects
How It Works
Share Your Ideas: Tell me about your references, themes, placement, and overall goals.
Shape The Design: I develop a sleeve direction that brings the imagery and composition together.
Build The Project: We tattoo the sleeve in considered stages, refining the work as it develops.







About
With a decade of experience I create custom tattoos for people who want artwork with presence, personality, and depth. Based at INX Tattoo Studio in Lincoln, I specialise in large-scale sleeves, black and grey, geometric, dotwork, and also coverJapanese-inspired, gaming tattoos because I’m an massive nerd and cover ups. I design every tattoo to look strong from every angle, combining careful detail with a relaxed, friendly studio experience. Whether you have a clear idea or need help shaping one, I am here to make something genuinely yours.
I have also trained some insanely talented Artists across the UK so you’re in safe hands.
We have the largest studio in the City with an amazing team and our second studio just across the road also houses Inx Coffee Co.
