i got a dot matrix printer and let me tell you it cuts my pencil time way down. its not a thermal fax no heat involved. check it out on ebay, they are refurbished but they stand 100% behind their stuff. i love it check it out

yeah i agree, ive been adding some color to the fairy and some shading to the tribal skull. im really just getting my feet wet with this whole thing so i didnt want to put bullshit on someone skin so i did the outlines and while they were healing i worked on my shading so now im finishing them up now

[dermisdweller]

its a design i got off the net but i put it in the skin.

[dermisdweller]

[dermisdweller]

i live in SC and was reading up on needle disposal in my state. i read to fill a 2 liter bottle 3/4 way full and tighten lid as much as possible then tape it and toss it in the trash, crazy thats how my state wants it done but if they think thats safe and nobody else wants them.

i have also heard about this method from a few friends that work in shop but being unfamiliar myselp with doing thid i dont advice it without supervision, this probably doesnt sound right coming from a scratcher but i have enough sence to know my limits. hope this helps sorry its not from a better source

[dermisdweller]

welcome fellow scratcher, one piece of advice i will give is search multiple soures and research your ass off. there is nothing worse than a bad tatoo and living up to the stereo type. ive also learned and pick up things from this site and there is alot these people can help with. take the advice good or bad and practice and then prctice some more. good luck and stay tuned

all but three of these are on the leg.one on a thigh, three on calfs, one on the foot, one on the neck and one on the wrist. my line work for the fairy was done with a 3RL and the face and hair was done with a 1. i think the tribal turned out to be the most challenging do to the time and the fact half my stencil blurred so i free handed the top half.

havent had that happen yet but i think my finger is going to be permently numb. i ordered some grip covers but til i get them in ive been using gause wrapped around my grip just so i have alil give in it. seemed to help but i will just see how the new grips work out

[dermisdweller]

congrats, i know it has to feel good to take the next step in something you have worked hard for.

[dermisdweller]

yeah thanks i use moms but need to start trying out new stuff. i have seen alot of people talking about the intenz black ill probably try it out next.

[dermisdweller]

thanks guys i have worked hard and research for months before even buying a machine or needle.im working on my shading and thats why i havent put any on skin yet. Being a “scratcher” i want to make sure i dont put janky stuff on people. so i guess you could say these are works in progress. any help with shading advise would be awsome
