Skeleton Tattoo Designs - How To Draw

Skeletons are the most popular emblems since a long time now. Be it tattoos, symbols, insignia of the pirates, or evil Skeleton Tattoo on backdepiction, human skeletons are usually the pick. Skeletons are also a part of many fantasy settings and are definitely mighty fun to experiment with. The depiction of human skeleton can vary among evil, flaming, or simply a cartoon.

When you plan to draw a skeleton, you should have a proper reference in mind. A visual clip serves the best however.

Steps to draw a human skeleton:
• Framework: Begin with an approximate framework sketching. Proportion is highly important in drawing, especially with a complex figure like a human skeleton. You may mentally plan first and can then place the arms, legs, and face in proper sizes and positions.
• Central part of the skeleton: While drawing any part of a skeleton, be it the skulls, rib, or the pelvis, it is important to know some important technical terms. The eyes are always placed halfway through the chin. The clavicle is always protruding. It should be precisely depicted for a real effect. The shoulder bones highlight the back and the pelvic enhances the shape of the torso. The visual clip will help you attain the required angular and tangential accuracy.
• Logical method: Segmenting a complex drawing into small logical blocks is the most systematic approach for attaining an optimized work. Therefore, in a skeleton, the process flow is beginning with the framework, then the skull, the upper chest, the ribs, the grin, the waist, the pelvic, the lower arm, the legs, and the feet. And yes, to reiterate, a right proportion of size & position is as integrally vital.
• Shading and erasing: After drawing the skeleton, shade the areas, like the skull and ribs, for finer precision. Shading always highlights the key areas of the skeleton. After the final creation is complete, erase the initial framework we initially drew for proper positioning of all the elements. You can color the background for further effects, but that again is optional.

For cartoon skeletons, the proportions and shapes may be slightly altered. The skull can be oval and the arms & ribs can be extremely fat to thin. These human skeleton structures are especially for Halloween and thriller themed parties. Imaginative exploration is a definite key to innovation or creativity on the subject.

Some skeleton tattoos show the bones for what they are — bones. Although not as animated as some, these images can have a startling effect. One example would be to place the full skeleton along the back, or stomach and give it the appearance of having been buried. In this design you could create small particles of sand, or tufts of grass being swept away from the partially covered bones. You could also create an interesting image of a face and body seeming to disappear, exposing the bones beneath.

On occasion, people prefer skeleton tattoos that use one specific part. The skull, of course, is one of the most popular; however, you can also occasionally see a skeletal hand holding an hourglass, mirror or book. In this style, you may also see examples of medical text tattoos. These skeleton tattoos may show only certain parts such as the mandible, femur, are vertebrae of the spine. These depictions often show old medical text from the 1800’s to early 1900’s, and usually name the specific skeletal sections. For a slightly more morbid touch, some like to add fractures or noticeable deformities to these skeletons.

Although having skeleton tattoos may seem rather unwholesome to some, those who decide on this style have usually come to peace with the idea of both life and death, or are searching to find enlightenment and a certain feeling of wholeness by communing with something a little darker than themselves.
