not bad –
here is a tip… you can take what you want from it..when i first started tattooing – i thought you had to outline a lot – then i found bloodline.. then i realized – lines are your enemy..
lines should be an accent piece..
try to look at real art – not flash – maybe like photos or paintings…stay AWAY from hard lines – make tattoos look cartoon-ish
you know what i am saying?
your work looks clean though – and doesn’t look like you damaged the skin that much – but it is a low res image too – and a photo is nothing compared to real life.
Always ask your mentor about your work – and make sure you use plastic tubes and tips – and disposable needles –
An apprenticeship is the BEST way to learn to tattooKeep up the tattooing though – stick with it… everyone has to start somewhere – and you are not an expert over night – it take years of practice… keep working in other mediums as well – paint and draw in your free time – and TRY TRY TRY to get a job in a real shop if you are not already – don’t tattoo out of your home.
It might seem just as clean – but it really degrades the industry… and should be illegal…
try to get an apprenticeship – i can not stress that enough… this site is not a free for all – go tattoo at home.. it is designed to help with an apprenticeship.. you know?Spread the word – i think the more people find out about it – the more the positive side of it will actually be seen…
Thanks for posting on here! and thanks for messaging.
