Why This Palette Exists
Japanese tattoo work relies heavily on strong colour contrast and disciplined tonal balance.
This palette is structured to reflect traditional ink harmony while maintaining clarity between bold fills, shadow values, and highlight tones. It allows you to build cohesive compositions across koi, dragons, waves, florals, masks, and symbolic elements without losing colour integrity.
Designed specifically for traditional and neo-Japanese tattoo design, it delivers timeless colour structure with controlled balance.

This makes adding filigree to designs sooo much easier, which is great because I'm a sucker for doing that, a lot of variation
Such a beautiful set! These designs are stunning, very easy to download and install.
Absolutely love these stamps! The quality is fantastic, and I can't wait to start using them in my next projects.
Truly exceptional! The flash stamps from procreations have taken my tattoo designs to the next level. High quality and incredibly easy to use.
I’m new to digital art and was a bit intimidated, but Pro-Creations made it so accessible. Their designs are user-friendly and the results are amazing. Started with reference designs and now I’m exploring flash stamps too!
I've used the reference designs for various projects, and they consistently impress me. They blend perfectly into my workflow, saving me time and boosting my creativity. Highly recommend!
