Hmm, I’d go at a piece like this by lining the obvious hard lines black, outside lines where light is the harshest, eyes, nostrils, ect, then probably use a grey line for other stuff, and grey line should be the lightest possible wash you use so the lines aren’t hard. if ur going for the realism look then yes work it in layers of shading.

Thanks for the post Spider! I have actually checked out Jin’s stuff before it’s really solid. If it is legit, and he does want me there I’ll definitely do my best to cover my bases. I’ll ask about my take home, and such, and ill check out that section on your website. I was just kind of excited that he messaged me, haha. If you think about it…[Read more]

Well dude, with that entry about you on hilds fb page you can now expect the “competition” to look your way if they haven’t before.

If you plan on having your BBP cert make sure that whatever “class” you take is accepted in your area. Some places will not accept just any BBP cert. I had one before that was OSHA and HIPAA certified and the health department here told me it was a no go because they didn’t recognize the company on thier “official” list. So I had to go back and…[Read more]

I have a skype account for the shop as well, but it is the least used of any of the contact things we have so I rarely turn it on anymore. But feel free to add it and whatnot. Darkcarnivalink

Add it up!

yep that’s exactly what she is. She is thinking about learning to pierce as well and might very well end up being our piercer too.

so like a personal model that is a walking advertisement?

Yes, my shop has our own inkgirl, basically she is a walking, sexy, vivacious advertisement of some showcase pieces from the artists here, under contract she gets free ink and is required to attend local functions and tattoo conventions, do cover photos in tattoo girl sexy poses and just look yummy and inked up. She tells everyone that stops her…[Read more]

ink girl?

yeah probably need to work on that today. Might wait until I get my inkgirl in here to do it.
