Custom Tattooing at Dodeka
Thoughtfully Created. Designed Around You.
A tattoo is something you'll wear for the rest of your life. That's why we believe the process deserves as much attention as the finished piece itself. At Dodeka Ink, every tattoo begins with a conversation. Whether you already have a clear idea or are still exploring possibilities, we take the time to understand your vision, placement and preferred style before moving forward. Our artists specialise in fineline, blackwork, American traditional and Viking traditional tattooing, creating work that feels personal, balanced and designed to last.
Share Your Idea
Every tattoo begins with a conversation. Tell us about your idea, preferred style, approximate size and placement. Reference images are welcome to help communicate the atmosphere or details you are drawn to. You do not need to have everything figured out before getting in touch. Whether you are interested in fineline, blackwork, American traditional or Viking traditional tattooing, we will help you explore what works for your idea and placement.
Developing Your Design
Your artist will use your ideas and references to create an original design that feels personal and works naturally with the body. Reference images are used for direction and inspiration, rather than copied directly. For custom tattoo projects, a deposit is required to secure your appointment and reserve the artist’s design time. If you would prefer to discuss the project in person, a consultation at our studio in Tilburg can also be arranged.
Your Tattoo Appointment
On the day of your appointment, you and your artist will review the design together. Once everything feels right, a stencil is prepared and carefully positioned on the skin. You will have time to review the size, placement and overall balance from different angles. Adjustments can be made where necessary, and tattooing only begins when both you and your artist are happy with the final result. After the tattoo is complete, your artist will explain how to care for it and answer any questions about the healing process.
At Dodeka Ink, every tattoo begins with a conversation. From the first idea to the final placement, we take the time to understand your vision and create a design that feels personal, balanced and suited to your body.
Our tattoo artists in Tilburg specialise in fineline, blackwork, American traditional and Viking traditional tattoos. Whether you are considering your first tattoo, adding to an existing collection or planning a larger custom project, every piece is approached with care, craftsmanship and attention to detail.
During the design process, we discuss your preferred style, placement and approximate size. Reference images are welcome to help communicate the direction you are drawn to, but every custom tattoo is developed as an original design rather than copied from another artist.
On the day of your appointment, you will review the design and placement with your artist before tattooing begins. Our goal is to create work that not only looks beautiful when it is finished, but also feels considered, personal and made to last.
