Nice colour saturation and shading as well, looks good!

Nice work on the portraits! Since there’s no reference I don’t know how close they are to the real kids but they’re both well drawn.

Welcome! :)

Lots of variety & it all looks good, I say keep it up!

Thanks for your honest opinion, I will definitely take that into consideration for the future. I’ve already been working towards filling the page more when I do flash, but I don’t have anything I want to share just yet. I’ll have more pics soon :)

I can see where a lot of the work would seem copied, as when putting a lot of the flash together I tried to stick to traditional themes and used references. Although there are similarities to a lot of other tattoos, I wouldn’t say I “print stole”. I still have a lot of learning to do and am currently taking classes at an art school to improve my…[Read more]

Oh and Welcome to the forum! :lol:

Hi Hillboy,

As someone who is also trying to get a start I don’t know all there is to know about this industry. However, there are a few things I’ve found that have educated me on it immensely.

I definitely agree about the…[Read more]

The Inkstar and Valturd kits arent very good. Their machines are very cheap.

I figured they wouldn’t be great, especially since the price for the kit isn’t a lot. But I just need some machines I can

I really like the skull flower, nice work!

I just ordered the Inkstar Apprentice kit from Hildbrant last night! I’m really excited to finally have a machine in my hands to learn
how to properly tune and start on pigskins and fruit while I continue my search for an apprenticeship.

Thx Lennart!

You’ve got some skills, keep at it!

I hate it when drawings get wrinkled too!
Nice work though, good contrast & shading ;)

Thank you Vory! :D

I don’t have a huge reference collection but I’m slowly building one, I’ll definitely give Todd Noble a look and maybe add to it.
I’m currently taking courses at an art college in Calgary with the intent to obtain a graphic design certificate of achievement.
And I have also taken an online course in BBP, which I know doesn’t…[Read more]

Thank you Ramenuzumaki! :)
