About this lion gallery
This gallery collects 164 catalogued lion tattoo photos from 154 Australian studios across 8 states. Every image is real client work photographed by the studio that made it — not stock imagery or AI renders — and each photo is classified by our team by style, subject and body placement, so the filters above reflect what was actually tattooed.
Australian lion tattoos in our library are most often worked in black & grey, realism and traditional (old school). The placements that appear most often are the forearm, upper arm and chest. Each photo links to the studio that made it, so when a piece catches your eye you can go straight to that studio's profile, portfolio and contact details.
