3D tattoos: dark-art biomechanical tattoos

When it comes to a biomechanical tattoo, the cyborg tattoos and the alien-infestations tattoos are by far the most popular choices. However, it is not necessarily the case that a biomechanical tattoo contains only robotic / cyborg components and alien-like tissues and bones. In fact, there are many other themes and elements which can be integrated in a biomechanical tattoo design: reptiles, spiders, monsters, demons, etc.

Not as widespread as the cyborg tattoos or alien-infestation tattoos, the biomechanical tattoos depicting a monster inside the body of the the tattoo's wearer is still a quite widespread choice.

Without claiming to be exhaustive, this list contains the main themes of the biomech-monsters tattoos:
- zombie infestation (zombie bites, zombie transformation, zombies eating the body from inside etc)
- the human body depicted as the monster's hiding place
- fetuses (zombie fetuses, mosnter fetuses)
- torn skin revealing a hidden monster (usually only the teeths, the claws and sometimes the eyes of the monster are visibles) eating the body from inside
- skeletons (the entire skeleton or just some parts - usually the skull and the hands) inside the body
- demons living inside the body

Biomechanical tattoos: alien infestation

Another popular choice for a biomechanical tattoo is the "alien infestation" theme. Sometimes, the mechanical components and the alien tissues can be combined in a single tattoo.

The most common themes of the alien-biomechanical tattoos are:
- an alien creature growing inside a human body, and aventually destroying the host's body (or eating the host body from the inside out)
- alien creatures living inside someone's body, coexisting peacefully with the host (like Kauto, the mutant baby from Total Recall)
- alien creatures whice are using the human body like a vehicle (those tattoos contain mechanical and robotic components along with the alien tissues)
- aliens (strange) creatures hiding inside the human body; in this case, only small parts of the alien are visible - usually weird eyes staring from the depths of the host's body, claws and tentacles that seem to spring out. etc.
- fusions between humans and aliens: usually a human being with an alien arm or leg (like in the early stages of the transformation process of the Wikus character from the "District 9" movie)
- fusions between alien tissues and cyborg components

Cyborg Tattoos photos

The cyborg tattoo (or robot tattoo) is one of the main themes of the biomechanical tattoos. The cyborg style tattoos present the internal human body as a mechanical structure, made up of a metal skeleton along with titanium tendons and various organs of the human body. Usually, the cyborg tattoos contain many other elements besides metal, such as wires, microchips and other similar compounds that could visually substitute bones, muscles and tendons.

Biomechanical tattoos

Biomechanical art (also called Biomech) is a surrealistic style of art that combines elements of machines or alien tissues with human organics. Rendered with distinct realism, biomechanical art expresses an internal fantasy world, most typically represented with human or animal anatomy where bones and joints are replaced with metal pistons and gears, but infused with muscles and tendons.

various biomechanical tattoos

Biomechanical art was popularized in 1979 when Swiss artist H.R. Giger designed the alien creatures in Ridley Scott's Oscar winning movie Alien. After the popularity of Ridley Scott's 1979 movie Alien, tattoo artists began tattooing images taken directly from the movie, and from artist H.R. Giger's Necronomicon series. As the biomechanical tattoo art style became increasingly popular, tattoo artists such as Guy Aitchison and Aaron Cain began designing their own original, biomechanical art, creating one of tattoo's most popular contemporary tattoo art movements.


The most popular themes for the biomech tattoos are:
- the cyborg / robots tattoos (the skin is torn and reveals mechanical and robotic components that are enhanced by natural systems in the human body); they are typically done in black and grey, with white highlights, as these metallic, monochromatic colors are usually associated with machinery, but often red ink is used to portray muscle or tissue while blue ink is used for cables and wires. More recently, the style has evolved to sometimes include bright, unnatural colors for the wires and gears.

Since these tattoo represent the future and the unknown, they can really be anything you desire and you can let your imagination can run wild. Creativity is key with all of the possibilities in a Biomechanical tattoo.

The best and most artistic biomechanical tattoos use an understanding of human anatomy to blend the natural body into the artificial machine components. Biomechanical tattoos often mimic the contours of muscles and bones, following the human musculoskeletal system. The point of these tattoos is to appear natural or even possible, to be believable and realistic. These tattoos are only successful when they appear to trick the eye, known as a trompe l'oeil in artistic terms. The tattoos don't need to be actually plausible, but must appear so. Talented artists fuse the human body (particularly muscles, tendons, and bones) with gears, wiring, circuits, tubes, and levers. Because of this, placement is an essential component of even the best designs. The biomechanical tattoo must be placed over the correct joints and muscles in order to look as believable as possible. Furthermore, the artist must be able to blend the tattoo into the normal, un-tattooed skin. If the biomechanical tattoo looks like a sticker or out of place then the entire effect is ruined, even if the actual tattoo is nicely executed.
