  • ✱ ✱ ✱ SUBSCRIBE: th-cam.com/users/wolfpits?sub_conf... ✱ ✱ ✱ In this one, I show you how to make a dot pen for illustration and stippling art. After a video pi posted of me using my "Stipple Zapper" on TikTok that blew up and dozens of requests to make a tutorial, I decided to show you how to make your electric dot pen. Use it for illustration, sketching, drawing, and whatever else you can think of. It's a great art hack to save you time and to have fun with a new art tool. If you want to make your own, I have put a list of supplies and materials I used to make this dot pen and some alternates for the sold-out and out of productions power supply, foot pedal, and clip cord.

    As someone with no experience with tattoos or tattoo machines, I've been looking for a tutorial on how to make these for general drawing use ever since I saw McBess with one back in 2014. Thank you so much!

    @reallyfurious 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Thanks, I'm thinking of making one. I'd suggest poking a small hole in the back of the pen tube with a hot needle so that air can replace the ink as it flows out of the tip and doesn't create a vacuum inside the tube.

    Came from TikTok and am so thankful for this! I love stippling but I have some early carpal tunnel that prevents me from doing it for long periods of time. Looking forward to trying something new to help me along!!!

    • @WolfPits

      I hope it’s helps, definitely try a lower setting on then power supply and use a piece of felt under your work it will help take out some of the harsher impact of the machine

    Is it possible to a stippling pen holder like this but that allows me to insert any pen of my choice? I know that Cuttlelola produces electric stippling pens, but as far as I understand, they only work with their specific pen cartridges. I would like to buy a machine like this that allows me to insert any pen of my choice.

      I’m sure you could do it with a cool machine but it would need to be modified to fit the pen or needle bar and the hit would be less accurate most likely

      Yes, use a larger tube and a full sized needle bar. Use to piece of tape. The chuck might need to be drilled to accommodate the larger tube.

      Please be careful; I do not condone or recommend at-home tattooing, even with just a pen as pretend. A rotary machine does not bog down the same way a coil machine does, so please be careful.

      Material can fluctuate depending on the quality of parts you use. You can get very cheap rotary tattoo machines they are not good for actual tattooing but are great for this dot pen. I have a list of parts I used in the description, but there are cheaper alternatives as well
