Thanks, I think that’s what I was missing, machines are running good, so I kinda figured it was my technique, will see how they heal, Fyi practicing on myself for now.

Machine is packing great now, although I do have a question if anyone can help I’d appreciate it. I noticed when holding the machine at a 45 degree angle it seems to pack ink better, I’ve seen many tattoo artists use their machines like they are using a pencil, why is it that when I do this the ink seems to not want to stick?

I use new tubes and needles every time, even if im just working on myself. How do you color white in large areas? Use a mag in a liner machine? Btw thanks for the info, liners seem to work well when using white
