About this design
What the design shows
The design reduces an oni mask to a clean, narrow outline. Two very long horns begin near the forehead and sweep upward in matching arcs, each containing only two interior contour strokes. A single pointed ridge divides the forehead, with two simplified flame-like folds flowing into lowered eyes. The nose is a small rounded shape with a central notch. Pointed ears jut out at the temples, then tuck into short curls at the cheeks. Below, an open mouth contains a short upper tooth line and two long fangs that angle down on either side. A narrow pointed chin closes the silhouette. There are no fills, stippling, or color blocks; the facial depth comes entirely from black contour lines and open skin. In the preview it sits just below the inner wrist crease, about two finger-joint lengths from horn tips to chin.

Placement
Placement and size
The on-skin version is centered on the inner wrist with its horns directed toward the palm and the pointed chin toward the forearm. Its two-finger-joint height keeps the mask compact without losing the facial outline. It also works behind the ear, above the ankle, on the side of a finger, or in a small forearm gap. At a smaller scale, remove the inner horn lines and shorten the tooth row rather than compressing the eyes and fangs together.
Patchwork
Building it into a patchwork
This is a light, compact line piece whose long horns create its main vertical reach. It is useful as a small accent between larger tattoos, especially beside a fine botanical sprig, narrow moon, or a few dots. Give it an open patch of skin instead of surrounding it with dense blackwork; the ears and horn tips need room to stay crisp. A small companion can sit below the chin, while the space above the horns should remain open.
Small pieces that pair with it
- A tiny crescent below the pointed chin
- Two fine dots outside one horn
- A short maple sprig along the forearm side
- A narrow smoke curl above the wrist crease

For your artist
Notes for your tattoo artist
- 01Keep the long horn arcs matched when the wrist is held neutral.
- 02Use a slightly firmer outer line than the short interior horn marks.
- 03Leave the eye openings and tooth gaps as skin, not grey shading.
- 04Position the horn tips below the palm crease so bending does not crowd them.
