this pic was taken before i finished it – i liked the black and grey look to it but was coming together nice with color

i would advise to go over the lines again a little darker and make it come together with some dark to light action – i do small tight circles inside the lines then gradually put less pressure as i go further in with bigger circles til i’m barely even touching the paper – your drawings are more like filled in rather than shade – and to tattoo those…[Read more]

little tiny circles i can do……..i need that color knowledge i believe…….

sklown in ball point pen

goood stuff! i’m stuck in black and grey stuff – i don’t get much color work to do – but when i do they don’t come out so good – i get mad because i take pride in my work – on fake skin i pop them colors – on real skin though …. :? not so much – what works for you? i’m gonna have to practice some color on myself next …… :| –

here’s another ball point pen heart – this one i haven’t finished – still needs the flame on top – and much lighter with the hand on the red – who knows if i ever finish it…… :roll:

thanx!!!!!!!!

thanx! and yea – just some crazy face lookin thing – :o – :D

cold blooded dude!

i bet! – i have thought about tattooing my stomach – but toooo lazy to get the lawnmower out…….. lol – but i have tattooed both my legs and my calf – and it is challenging – i don’t know why that makes me an asshole…….lol – the 1st tattoo i ever did on skin (around 5 yrs ago) was my right leg – i figured if i mess any1 up it would be…[Read more]

maaaaaan – be carefull – i just bought a “starter” kit knowing that machines that cheap had to be cheap – but i didn’t get half of my outline down before that thing heated up and quit on me – i had my regular machines handy just in case and i had to finish with them much sooner into the tattoo that i had anticipated – not only that – if i would of…[Read more]

hA! i love tattooing myself! that’s dope! – upside down on stomach – good stuff man!

IF that’s the 1st tattoo you ever did……wow! – don’t mind me – it’s just hard to believe that you got all that color in and talkin about what inks you used for what section and needle groupings – just seems too much for a 1st tattoo done – but if it is – wow! good stuff!

looks decent from far…….but get in there with the camera – nothing else should be seen but the tattoo…….. 8-)

from what i can see – looks good – for next time u take a pic – there shouldn’t be much showing around the tattoo – just the tattoo up close and personal – lol – anywayz – looks cool 8-)

impresive 8-)

haha – that works in theory – but then my job will be much harder tryin to keep the ink in due to the thined out blood pouring out and pushing all the ink right back out…….lol

ill kick it off by sharing the best tip i picked up on my youtube searches – i forgot this dudes name – but he suggested to keep candy handy when tattooing – they come in handy when your client is starting to “feel” the pain – they start whining and rusing you – that is when you introduce them to some candy – ther blood sugar level goes up and all…[Read more]

2-3 weeks is definately not enough time to know ALL you need to know about tattoing – but it’s a good start i personally believe – if you have 5k to dish out like that then more power to you – they can’t teach you everything – but you will learn more there in those 2-3 weeks than in any apprenticeship……..yes i said it…..lol – don’t kill me -…[Read more]

thanx gmcane, and i actually threw some white in them eyes since then
