Polygonal animals

Polygonal animals are cute and sweet but have an elegant look on the skin. For those who love animals and wish for a clean and discreet tattoo, this could be for you. Polygonal animals can be entirely schematic, drawn only with lines. Or they can keep the realistic depiction of the animal with geometrical forms in the design.
