Tattoo style
New school tattoos in Japan
New School is a tattoo style that became popular from the late 1980s to the early 1990s, characterized by vibrant colors and bold outlines. It features exaggerated shapes and perspectives, much like manga and anime, and often incorporates elements of graffiti, pop culture, and video games. While inheriting the thick outlines of American Traditional, New School takes a bolder approach to distorting colors and shapes.
