Cartoon tattoos are worn for the Saturday mornings of a 90s childhood, small and bright on the forearm, the calf or the ankle. These nine show three original characters in that era's look: a gap-toothed kid on a skateboard, a bug-eyed little monster, and a lanky cat with a huge grin. Each comes as bright colour, black outline or old school. Type a different character or a twist, such as a dinosaur, and the styles carry the request.

  • a small ankle or calf design to take to an artist
  • a retro bedroom print
  • a laptop sticker
  • a birthday card for someone who grew up in the 90s

Frequently asked questions

What is in the nine designs?
An original skater kid, a bug-eyed little monster and a grinning cat, each drawn in three styles. The characters are original and not taken from any franchise.
Can I print these?
Each design sits on a plain white background, so it reads clearly on paper. The bright colour style uses flat fills of lime, pink, orange and purple.
What is the difference between the three styles?
Bright colour is flat fills with thick wobbly outlines and no gradients. Black outline uses clean closed black lines with no shading. Old school uses bold outlines with solid black shadows and a flat red, yellow, teal and black palette.
Can I ask for a different subject?
Yes. Type the subject or twist you want, such as a dinosaur. The nine shown are samples, and a request is not a promised result.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
