Japanese Dragon: Strength and Wisdom

This tattoo design features a detailed Japanese style dragon. The dragon has intricate scales, smoothly flowing whiskers and expressive, lively eyes. Its body is curled in a dynamic pose, with an elegantly twisted torso and extended claws. The design is rich in traditional Japanese artistic elements, such as waves and clouds, adding movement and mystery to the composition. The tattoo is mainly done in black and gray, with subtle accents of red and gold that highlight certain features, such as the eyes and scales, giving the design definition and strength.
