  I was wondering if letters are a good place to start… I’m thinking letter will be easy to see any lil mistake.. But if I am blacking them in then I could hide any mstake that might hAppen… I’ve only done 1 tattoo so far… The lady loved it.. But I know it could of been better….. I want to post the 1st tattoo but I don’t have a computer.. I am on a iPod… Lol but just wanted some info on letters… And I’m going to be doin baby foot prints too but I got that undercontroll I’m just going to use a 8 round shader and no liner

  don’t look at lining something as easier or harder…just put the lines where they go. Old English will have tiny lines very close to one another, which is challenging sometimes if you don’t have a very steady hand yet. If you only have an 8r to work with I’d say consider how the lines will be on that lettering with that needle grouping. Probably way to fat for any tiny detail work.

  Did you use 3 seperate stencils? The spaces look uneven and the whole thing doesn’t look centered correctly, this might be due to the spacing though.
  
  The actual lettering looks good though, a 7RL is good for that size imo.
