8 Artistic D Tattoo Designs
Although the letter D has a basic, universally recognizable shape, it can be presented in a few tasteful ways for an attractive piece of body art. Check out the designs in the list below for some inspiration.
1. Letter D With Heart Tattoo
What better way to express your deep heartfelt emotions for the person or thing the letter D represents for you than encasing it within a heart? The tattoo above features an ornamental heart shape with a D in bold font within it, conveying clearly that you hold this person in high regard. You can even explore more ornamental tattoo styles, mixing intricate patterns with bold, fine-line details to create a bespoke design with letter D or any other letter that perfectly suits you.
2. Initial D Tattoo
Oftentimes, initials are used as code words that relay just enough information for the right eyes and confuse the meddlesome type. It is also a brilliant solution to declaring your allegiance to someone or something quite openly with most people none the wiser. The placement behind the ear, as shown above, is also a clever touch where the wearer may conceal the design at will by styling their hair accordingly.
3. Small Letter D Tattoo
The small D can be just as impactful as a capital one. All you have to do is opt for a bolder font if you wish to be more assertive with it. The design above features a simple small D letter in a bold font, without any other additional pomp and show. Placed on the back of the hand, it easily stands out to signify the wearer has something they value quite dearly and would want the world to know about it.
4. D Letter Hand Tattoo
A letter D tattoo on a highly exposed part of your body, such as the hand, allows you the opportunity to be cheekily forthright about the things that matter to you. Because the tattoo is going to be visible and at social events, someone is bound to ask you about it. A clever placement choice, with a teaser, to make onlookers bubble with curiosity and feel compelled to connect with you!
5. Fancy D Tattoo
The letter D speaks of something that is extremely special to you, and hence, when you consider inking it, of course, you want to go for something fancy. This design is a wonderful example of how the font, as well as the accompanying elements, can help you achieve a highly aesthetic and fanciful look with your letter D tattoo. The alphabet itself is on the palm — a rare, hence tasteful placement — with leafy vines snaking out of it.
6. Cursive D Tattoo
The way a cursive letter swirls and twirls, effortlessly gliding across a surface, can make for a delicate and elegant touch for your letter D tattoo. Most people would think cursive can only be achieved with small letters but get a little creative and you shall see that capitals fit the aesthetic just as well. Add minimal floral or filigree details to your cursive D to create an unmatched ink design that shall leave a lasting impression.
7. Initial D With Crown Tattoo
The addition of a crown is a simple and instant way to increase the overall appeal of any design, giving it an air of royalty. The more intricately designed the crown, the more expensive the design looks. This little addition also speaks of how highly you regard the person or concept that your letter D represents. Flaunt it on any space along your arms for a classy touch to your personality.
8. D Finger Tattoo
The Roman alphabets have a basic and minimal shape that can be conveniently executed in a micro-size for placement on your fingers. The sides of the fingers may conceal the tattoo, serving as a naughty, open secret. However, one may choose this placement for their tattoo on the visible sides as a permanent accessory that adorns their digits. The tattoo above, on the exposed side of the index finger does a fine job of accessorizing it despite the simple font.
