There are many different ways to find ideas and inspiration for a sleeve tattoo or any tattoo in general. One way, find what is important to you. Is there a symbol or element that represents you? For example, we will say that you are a firefighter. You are looking for a sleeve tattoo design but you don't know what to get. Your suit, hat, helmet, department number, and your fire department symbol would be important to you. These are items and elements that you would include in your sleeve tattoo as they are all associated. Take the symbols, numbers, and elements that are meaningful to you and apply them to your sleeve tattoo design.
Your heritage, pride, and family is another great idea for a sleeve tattoo. Where were you born? Are there symbols that represent your name or your family's name? If you are a coal miner, you could apply symbols that represent this. Never be ashamed of where you came from and who you are today. A meaningful sleeve tattoo will make you feel much better then choosing a sleeve tattoo design that has no overall meaning. If your not looking for a meaningful tattoo, make sure you choose one that you won't regret later down the road.
If you have served your country or you are currently serving, you may want to consider a sleeve tattoo design that portrays this. The navy, army, marines, national guard, and anyone else all have symbols and elements that represent their outfit. Each outfit has specific colors, numbers, and symbols.
