Black and Grey Realism/PORTRAIT TATTOOS
I create detailed black and grey realism tattoos and portraits with depth, contrast and smooth shading throughout.
Custom Realism Portrait
Custom Realism Portrait
A carefully composed portrait tattoo built around the details that make the subject meaningful.
A More Personal Way to Honour a Subject
I create custom black and grey portraits from selected reference images, focusing on expression, structure, and the subtle transitions that give a face its presence. Each design is considered for scale and placement so the portrait remains balanced with the natural movement of the body.
The session is calm and collaborative, with time to review the concept before tattooing begins. Through layered shading and controlled contrast, I develop a piece that feels dimensional while keeping the most important details clear and recognizable.

How It Works

Refine The Design: I shape the composition around your subject, scale, and skin placement.
Create The Tattoo: I build the portrait through precise linework, layered shading, and careful detail.
Hi, I'm Chino Wang, a tattoo artist focused on precision, patience, and thoughtful composition. My work is built through careful observation, controlled technique, and a deep respect for how an image needs to translate onto skin. I take time to understand the subject, placement, and feeling behind each piece so the finished tattoo has clarity as well as character.
Black and grey realism allows me to bring that approach into every layer of a design. I use measured contrast, soft transitions, and refined detail to create depth without losing readability over time. Clients can expect a considered process, clear communication, and a tattoo developed around their vision and the natural flow of their body.
