1. Blood Red Commander Igris

Blood Red Commander Igris is the figure who best shows how powerful and stylish they are. Nick Yarian’s beautiful black and grey tattoo shows Igris at his most famous when he is sitting cocky on the throne with his sword by his side as if he were ready to test Sung Jin Woo.

For those who know, Igris is more than just a formidable opponent; he’s Sung Jin-Woo’s first real test since his second awakening. Igris starts as an enemy but becomes one of Sung Jin-Woo’s most loyal friends and an essential part of his shadow army. He is known for being the world’s strongest and most graceful fighter.

2. Statue of God Solo Leveling Tattoo

The scary grin of the Statue of God says “Solo Leveling” is better than anything else, and this tattoo by Sefi Levi does it perfectly.  The bright blue body, the scary red eyes that glow, and the evil smile?  It is famous, it’s creepy, and it’s just plain cool.

If you’ve read the series, you know this face appears in the first few books.  One of the first big bad guys Sung Jin-Woo faces is the Statue of God, and it’s really where everything changes.  This scary giant wasn’t just showing off its strength but also blocking Jin-Woo’s path with “the System.”  It’s powerful, terrifying, and something you will never forget.

3. Chae Hae-in

Our favourite Chae Hae-In, is on every Solo Leveling list. The Vice-Guild Master of the Hunters Guild comes to life in this beautiful colour tattoo by Alex Sierra. She is an S-rank officer. Everything about it is perfect, from her angry face to the complicated design of her armour.  

This piece was inspired by the panel where Chae Hae-In is first shown and can feel Sung Jin-Woo’s strong presence. This tattoo stands out thanks to its bright colours and lively shading. It’s a great tribute to a strong and beautiful character.

4. Beru

This beautiful Beru tattoo by Leonardo Bonilla Ortiz shows one of Jinwoo’s most dangerous shadows horrifyingly. As the Ant King’s shadow from the S-Rank Gate on Jeju Island, Beru is a Marshal Grade shadow with colossal power. Only Igris is more potent than him, and Bellion in Jinwoo’s army is still stronger.

The tattoo shows off Beru’s scary features, like his smoky wings, neon-lit eyes, razor-sharp claws, and the creepy purple glow that surrounds his humanoid body.  This piece is a must-see for any Solo Leveling fan because the details bring Beru’s scary energy to life.

Valentina Fracassini made this beautiful black-and-white tattoo of the last picture from Solo Leveling Season 1 (Chapter 110).  Sung Jin Woo is shown wearing a sleek black suit and letting out his tie stylishly.  The whirling shadows around him and the way the right side of his face is beautifully shaded hit me hard.

The reality in black and grey is stunning, and the bright blue in his eyes brings out the moment he uses his skill.
