I dig the hell out of art and it rocks that so many people are getting ink these days. I don't have as much as I would like.....but Im working towards it. I've started getting into tattooing, just recently. (about 4 months) That's where my interest lies. Learning to put killer work on people for the rest of thier lives. I have mostly done portrait artwork (on paper)......but would love to someday put that work on people. However, for now.....I have to start with the basics. Good lines....the techniques of shading...proper depth and speed....learning about equipment, the healing process. My poor leg looks like a patchwork of stars, but I'm learning. Anyway....glad to be here. I'm really diggin' it.

Just did a big tribal peice on a guy from school....talk about time consuming! All that black took a while. I used a 7mag, but it still seemed to go slowly. Poor guy had to sit forever! But I think I worked the depths right...so hopefully no problems with healing.
Thank you all for the big welcome.....it's nice to know that there are people out there who aren't judgemental toward beginners. Hope all is well with everyone!

Man packing color isn't much different

! Sticking ink in skin, getting everything clean and solid takes time, no jokes about it. Then it can be frustrating when you finally think you got it and they come back after it heals for touch ups cause some places are missing ink

Ok man, I checked all the other threads and your album... where's the pic? C'mon ya can't leave us hangin with your first piece on human flesh!!!

Okay.....you're gonna love this! I have to wait til it heals to take the pic. He was ready to bolt once I was done.....so I'm gonna catch him at school. But I have to wait for all the skin flaking to be done. It's not actually my first piece. I have a few others. I will get them on here asap! Definately need to update my albums.
