Hats off to all the single needle artists. All my tats are from prison in the 90's. Just started to learn and wow there is so much more than i would have imagined. Thanks for all the tips
Wow I have been tattooing a long while now.i wish when I started someone like you was about so clear and presice explanation. I had a guy with a beard shout at me lol and grunt. Awesome work keep it up
Haha That means a lot to me Drew! Thank you very much for your time, kind words and for your support. I appreciate you. I feel like I would remember the shouting and grunting far more than anything I was taught. How is your tattooing journey going as of today?
Brotha' brotha' brotha'... This was the video that I really needed to see. As a beginner, I came on her to get some tips and this is the first vid that I came across and let me tell yah', this was the only one I needed to see atm. Perfectly detailed instructions, pros, and con. Awesome job explaining things to me bud. Thanks 👍
I can 100% say this is the most important bacisc when it comes to tattooing, thanks for creating contents like these, idk how many people have learned how to tattoo on a fake and real skin from you, but I know you can't count with your fingers alone, you're a blessing to the tattoo world and pray you have a healthy and prosperous life ahead of you to remain to be a blessing to all, old and new🤘🏻 #DanielYuck #welovelyla #supportlili
Since high school I have been wanting to become a tattoo Artist and I love how he explains things, I just got a tattoo machine and I was trying to get familiar of the machine but it had been difficult, with this video it has helped me tremendously and I have taken notes of it. Thank you soo much.
hell ya it is brother. thats exactly what i thought when i picked up my first tattoo machine today. ive been welding since probably 10 years old. time to see how tattoos come out🤷🏽♂️
Thank you so much for the super thanks and support! I appreciate you. Should you ever have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out to me and I will do my best to assist you in the best possible direction 🤝 Also I love Dayz, it’s an awesome game! Haha
I have hypopigmentation from acne scaring, I plan to save some money and tattoo skin tone back on my skin at home. Thank you for these beginner 101 videos 🤗
Aye man, thanks so much, I just got a new tattoo machine and I’ve been struggling to get used to it since It’s a pen with a battery and watt controller, my lines are coming out way more smoothly now and saturated
@DanielYuck What are you using to clean up your tattoo between lines? I know that a thin layer of Vaseline is applied before the tattoo for a cleaner smoother line run, is that what your using? Or are you using something else? When I do a tattoo I use the blue soap and water and spray it on or use a foaming dispenser and it’s a real pain to use between every run to clean the ink. What your using looks very easy and more effective.
Thank you for taking the time to leave some feedback and thank you for the time you put into watching my videos. I greatly appreciate you, your time and your support. I am grateful that I've been able to help you in a better direction. Should you have any questions please don't hesitate to let me know.
Thank you very much for your videos, it helps a lot!! I’d like to ask you if you have any tips how to keep your lines perfect when you’re tattooing on chest (how to control your lines while your client’s chest is moving due to breathing…) Thank you so much! Have a nice day
does it feel like rubber or silicone? and does the ink/stencil ink stain? if it feels like rubber and it does stain most likely that’s the reason why, it is 100% the skin. try something with a more silicone feel, this guy speaks a lot about it through his videos! but a good skin i recommend is reel skin :)
Same... right there with ya my guy Doesn't set in as well into the silicone, I've tried several different types so it's pretty much all Some better than others but overall same results
I’ve heard it referred to as “Cycles Per Second” Bronc power supplies will tell you your CPS. 120-135 is good for lining, 110 to 120 is good for shading. So on my CNCQ2 I shade at 8.5v and around 9.6v for lining.
You’re welcome! Thank you for the feedback and support. I appreciate you. I can definitely do something like this. Allow me to get this going and uploaded for you. Thanks for the recommendation 🤝
I have an issue where my liners are not making a single bold line, but rather several thin lines where each individual needle is. Is it an issue with my fake skin, or is it me?
Sometimes, the needle choice could be the problem, or the direction of the needle movement. I feel like this video is sharing the basics and proposing information, which as long as you are using a different machine or needles, is not a rule anymore but a choice. I use Kwadron liners and am more than happy with them. Also I do not work in traditional style, and I rarely make a line as consistent in only one movement, I feel like this is damaging the skin. I feel like I’m your situation you are probably not going deep enough with your needle, which is ok, you should go through it one more time with the same depth. It might need a couple of lines like this until you are grooved on.
What needle are you using could be several issues one I found out myself along time ago is adjusting the needle back in the plastic tip so when you put your needle in adjust it back to where it barely pokes out then like he said up the rpm to around 7 and move slower but not to slow gotta kinda find the in between
Hey bro I bought your V1 book love it! I am already working on fake skin but I am struggling with when I wipe off ink it is really messing up both my fake skin and my stencil. So stupid question but is the petroleum gelly that is applied throughout meant to stop the ink from smearing on the skin? I feel dumb but I keep having this issue any advice would be awesome. Also thank you for making your books they are amazing and the beginners book is really helping me!
I think the ink I was using was a bit low on pigmentation, but also since I had been drawing for a long time on paper I do strokes pretty fast and it's so hard for me to break that for tattooing so I need to work on that haha, I thought using a higher rpm might make up for my speed but the results are always kinda shite, just gotta practice to do it slower and be steady with it
I’m just learning the basics of tatting so I may be wrong (hopefully he corrects me if I am), but would your faster hand speed be beneficial when it comes to shading? Or would it be better to have similar consistency like doing line work?
@@keasiadaempress I mea it all depends on the type of shading I guess, it's all a difficult play with the voltage and handspeed that need to play together well, I got some pretty expensive ink that had some really good reviews and it's working some better but what makes an even bigger difference is the lower voltage, I think it just wasn't even really able to penetrate the skin because it was going too fast before. As for shading I have personally only ever done whip shading which is a very low vtage woth quick hand movements which gives a very faint dot result and a crosshatching technique which is my fav so far, never done greywash tho or smooth shading with a mag before just cause it's not really my style. So yeah, technically a fast hand movement is beneficial when shading but the voktage I was using was still just too high and it's working so much better now that I cut it like in half ☺️
hey so every time you lifted the pen. did you have to apply any A&D cream? i noticed it was a lil glossy and want to know when i apply it do i need to wipe it off before going to the next line? you didnt touch base on using the A&D. so thats what i need to know
Haha thank you! They talk back so if you ever have any questions along your way don’t hesitate to drop a comment. They will do their best to assist you in the best possible direction 😄
I havent tattooed anything yet, trying to get all of my suppies together now. I need a battery pack, ink and all the small sanitary things. I want ball pint pen carts after watching your video on them. So my question, where should i truly start? Im so excited and want to tattoo my first real person, myself, by summer. Think this is a real goal? Any and all advice is welcome, im just so ready!! Im older, 30's, and finally feel like this is something im going to just flow with but i want to do this right!
Same... I'm 49 and want to think about changing careers due to burnout, and want to do restoration / medical tattooing, because I can't draw but can color like a boss!!! 🤣
I just wrote a little story about my situation then my dog hits the laptop and erased ,,, need help ,Thanx for providing such help. Glad you R here. the depth of the needle is what im still a little rough on. alot of my work on myself has been to deep and scab up and byebye... to the ink ofcourse. One more little tidBiT. i used the machine on myself and not very much ink at all. when i Shtick and Poke the same area the better my skin sucks up the ink .... Slower i GO? Maybe ..... thanx for reading this far. Peace
You are using reel skin, right? I do. Having the problem, that I cut every time I try, playing with speed on the machine or my handspeed. I really don’t know what am I doing wrong.
Daniel I'm having a problem where when I use a 3rl on my fake skin it's leaving behind three lines side by side instead of one solid line would you know how I can correct this? Edit: just figured out why. I'm using a 1205rm to line and not a 3rl 🤦♂️ I'm so glad I now know the importance of different needles!
I've also heard that tattoo ink goes weird (green or blue?) on the face. Can you make a video speaking to this, explaining why, advising on which inks /brands tend to stay true to color, what brands that you'd recommend that offer skin tones, and any caveats, techniques, etc for tattooing over already scarred skin?
My husband keeps complaining how I have a heavy hand. I keep practicing to avoid that. He says I still have one. Idk if he's being a whimp or if I'm actually doing something wrong. ADVICE!?!
This is a great question!!!! A heavy hand is never a good thing and can really impact our work, experience and healed tattoo tremendously. From lines that bleed together to tattoos that have textures from the scarring underneath. I actually made a video on how we can go about avoiding a heavy hand or potentially reversing a heavy hand. In the video I will link you below you will be shown an exercise that you can use to immediately start reversing the heavy hand habit. How To Avoid A Heavy Tattoo Hand th-cam.com/video/hskf0kbOQ0Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zYVhHCqvP9VXsW7I
Hey Daniel love the video I’m practicing on a 1 round liner on a 7.5 volts I tend to have a faster hand speed than you. Since my background of graffiti art. Would you recommend this voltage or something higher?
I did graff before too when I was a teen for many years and it's nothing like Graff so u just want to unlearn what u know about Graff while your doing tattooing because tattooing is something u do at a much much slower rate. That's why tattoos take so long. I've been tattooing for 10 years now and I would never think of it anywhere even remotely similar to graffiti. So just tattoo slow and steady and don't think of it like graffiti. Think of it much more like a detailed painting with a paintbrush. Slow smooth strokes and yes if u have a quicker hand I would do somewhere around a 7 for line work.
Great info. But I found the best way to know is to actually tattoo. On fake skin of course. I started drawing during Covid and now I’m learning to tattoo. And it’s so damn exciting!!
Thank you for your feedback and support! I appreciate you. If I remember correctly I was using an Emalla 12-14RS for the bold outline. I will link you below so you can check out the needle on our end. Emalla 12-14RS Tattoo Needle emallaofficial.com/products/emalla-eliot-tattoo-cartridge-needles-round-shader-20pcs-per-box?ref=fkcxsZzd&variant=42914207727815
This is great, learning a lot from watching you work. Maybe next you can do a video on stretching skin? That would be informative and useful for practice. #DanielYuck 🤘🏽🍻🖤
Im transitioning from a prison gun to a freeworld gun....i did a tattoo the ink fell off.....i was scared of scaring....any tips...i saw ur video i migth not have gone to deep
Hey Daniel I am aspiring tattoo artist (hopefully getting my first machine with some reelskin & ink for christmas) I was wondering if doing line work like this is the same as doing line work on traditional art with pencils ? as light pressure & sharpness of the pencil will create either light or dark lines (If I am completely wrong I do apologize but like I said I'm just starting out)
It's not, you want consistent speed that will differ between shading and lining. Also consistent pressure, if you push too much you will go to deep easily. Shades are made by diluting ink or getting grey inks
Thats a great question! Although there wouldn't be 1 sum answer to this question as every needle I have ever used is different. Depending on the needle design itself I feel would have a lot of impact in terms of how long of a line we can pull with 1 dip. Sometimes the artist only dips just to pull in a little bit of ink to work a smaller area. It truly all depends but a good practice is to always be mindful of how much ink we have to ensure we can make the line before we commit.
I have a video on my channel where I explain how I go about packing white. I will link you below th-cam.com/video/-s90_jnRUX4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=k3tdS5DHo3vfkZ7v
Yea that’s a good way to go when we are practicing! Try to place it on a silicone limb if you get one, it helps to tattoo on curved surfaces over flat as you advance.
Thank you for the feedback! I will definitely do better in all of my future videos. I apologize for the inconvenience. Rest assured I will do my best to get this resolved.
Questions.... Why are you using a shader to line ? Also when you let your needle catch , how to you prevent blow outs , wouldn't that overload the "catch" zone with ink?
These are great questions! So for me I like to use round shaders for lining because I am able to get clean bold lines that I would not get using round liners. For the catch zone question. If we go in directly to the catch zone I feel yes we can blow out the skin for sure. When we enter the line we want to use a taper like motion which not only gives the needle time to catch into the skin but it also prevents a blow out as well. This would also depend on one's experience as blow outs can happen to any artist of any caliber.
@@DanielYuck awesome man thanks for the reply. IV been tattooing for around 7 years but learnt alot from your videos. Your doing well man keep it up! The guy who taught me uses to get a liner , heat it slightly with a flame then poke it thru his tshirt to "splay " the needles effectively turning a liner into a shader but have never tried to use a shader as a liner .... Going to give this a whirl

hey so every time you lifted the pen. did you have to apply any A&D cream? i noticed it was a lil glossy and want to know when i apply it do i need to wipe it off before going to the next line? you didnt touch base on using the A&D. so thats what i need to know
Thank you so much the video was so useful 🤘🏽
thank's for tip no one never told me that.
You're welcome!

I havent tattooed anything yet, trying to get all of my suppies together now. I need a battery pack, ink and all the small sanitary things. I want ball pint pen carts after watching your video on them. So my question, where should i truly start? Im so excited and want to tattoo my first real person, myself, by summer. Think this is a real goal? Any and all advice is welcome, im just so ready!! Im older, 30's, and finally feel like this is something im going to just flow with but i want to do this right!
Same... I'm 49 and want to think about changing careers due to burnout, and want to do restoration / medical tattooing, because I can't draw but can color like a boss!!! 🤣
I just wrote a little story about my situation then my dog hits the laptop and erased ,,, need help ,Thanx for providing such help. Glad you R here. the depth of the needle is what im still a little rough on. alot of my work on myself has been to deep and scab up and byebye... to the ink ofcourse. One more little tidBiT. i used the machine on myself and not very much ink at all. when i Shtick and Poke the same area the better my skin sucks up the ink .... Slower i GO? Maybe ..... thanx for reading this far. Peace
thank you for this video very informative and insightful i love you so much
Love how you explain everything when you do these videos. #DanielYuck
You are using reel skin, right? I do. Having the problem, that I cut every time I try, playing with speed on the machine or my handspeed. I really don’t know what am I doing wrong.
maybe try adjusting your angle
Very helpful sir ❤
Thanks for the knowledge man ❤
Daniel I'm having a problem where when I use a 3rl on my fake skin it's leaving behind three lines side by side instead of one solid line would you know how I can correct this?
Edit: just figured out why. I'm using a 1205rm to line and not a 3rl 🤦♂️ I'm so glad I now know the importance of different needles!
I've also heard that tattoo ink goes weird (green or blue?) on the face. Can you make a video speaking to this, explaining why, advising on which inks /brands tend to stay true to color, what brands that you'd recommend that offer skin tones, and any caveats, techniques, etc for tattooing over already scarred skin?
So is voltage and hand speed mainly up to the artist or does different designs and skin require different hand speed and voltage?
My husband keeps complaining how I have a heavy hand. I keep practicing to avoid that. He says I still have one. Idk if he's being a whimp or if I'm actually doing something wrong. ADVICE!?!
This is a great question!!!!
A heavy hand is never a good thing and can really impact our work, experience and healed tattoo tremendously.
From lines that bleed together to tattoos that have textures from the scarring underneath. I actually made a video on how we can go about avoiding a heavy hand or potentially reversing a heavy hand. In the video I will link you below you will be shown an exercise that you can use to immediately start reversing the heavy hand habit.

Can you please take a video four shading with voltage ,❤❤
You saved me! Thanks
I'm just starting out any tips on how to do good lines
Hey Daniel love the video
I’m practicing on a 1 round liner on a 7.5 volts I tend to have a faster hand speed than you. Since my background of graffiti art.
Would you recommend this voltage or something higher?
I did graff before too when I was a teen for many years and it's nothing like Graff so u just want to unlearn what u know about Graff while your doing tattooing because tattooing is something u do at a much much slower rate. That's why tattoos take so long. I've been tattooing for 10 years now and I would never think of it anywhere even remotely similar to graffiti. So just tattoo slow and steady and don't think of it like graffiti. Think of it much more like a detailed painting with a paintbrush. Slow smooth strokes and yes if u have a quicker hand I would do somewhere around a 7 for line work.
@@arijolie415 it most definitely ain’t the same. Im doing 8.5 volts on a 3.5 mm stroke.
@@SosaInk You will end up rapturing the skin.
@@georgegayen6536 with this voltage ?
@@georgegayen6536rupturing! Rapturing is a totally different thing 😂
Great info. But I found the best way to know is to actually tattoo. On fake skin of course. I started drawing during Covid and now I’m learning to tattoo. And it’s so damn exciting!!
So far the biggest problem i have is with hand speed/volt settings definitely needed thjs video #danielyuck
I honestly love rocking at about 6.5
Nice video. Can you tell me what exact needle cartridge you are using when tattooing the rose? (Sorry if you said it in the video and I missed it :D)
Thank you for your feedback and support! I appreciate you.
If I remember correctly I was using an Emalla 12-14RS for the bold outline. I will link you below so you can check out the needle on our end.

Thank you so much for sharing such detailed information with us!! You are a natural born teacher. #DanielYuck
Great video thank you again :3
3RL and 5RL would be better at a lower voltage? How low do you think?
Awesome bro!🤙🤙🤙
i run 12v for my line work i find lower voltage lines fade a lot more then higher voltage
Hello 🙏🏻 can I ask something ? 🥹 What happens if I use 4.3 volts or 4.5 volts ? It ok for do tattoo or 5 volts or more is better ? Thank you 🙏🏻
What spend do you typically use?
damn, i have like waay higher voltages and feel all wrong now. like i start at 7, for a 13rl i have like 9 volts.
Good man 🫡
Thank you for the feedback Galaxy!
@@DanielYuck keep up the good work I subbed 🙏
@@DanielYuck yes sir
Hello , its RS ligne or RL ? Tension ?
Dang I think I’m just hungry! I thought that was a piece of cheese
Lmao
This is great, learning a lot from watching you work. Maybe next you can do a video on stretching skin? That would be informative and useful for practice. #DanielYuck 🤘🏽🍻🖤

Why line with a RS and not a RL i might have missed when you said that
Im transitioning from a prison gun to a freeworld gun....i did a tattoo the ink fell off.....i was scared of scaring....any tips...i saw ur video i migth not have gone to deep
is it bad if my flow/speed is at 9.5V?
Hey Daniel I am aspiring tattoo artist (hopefully getting my first machine with some reelskin & ink for christmas) I was wondering if doing line work like this is the same as doing line work on traditional art with pencils ? as light pressure & sharpness of the pencil will create either light or dark lines (If I am completely wrong I do apologize but like I said I'm just starting out)
It's not, you want consistent speed that will differ between shading and lining. Also consistent pressure, if you push too much you will go to deep easily. Shades are made by diluting ink or getting grey inks
@@Vectorechanel ahh ok thank you for replying :)
How many lines can you do with one dip of the needle in ink.
Thats a great question! Although there wouldn't be 1 sum answer to this question as every needle I have ever used is different. Depending on the needle design itself I feel would have a lot of impact in terms of how long of a line we can pull with 1 dip.
Sometimes the artist only dips just to pull in a little bit of ink to work a smaller area. It truly all depends but a good practice is to always be mindful of how much ink we have to ensure we can make the line before we commit.
How do you pack white eternal ink
I have a video on my channel where I explain how I go about packing white.
I will link you below

Very demur very cutsie
Good day master! Thank you for the ideas and techniques in your videos #danielyuck
The hand movements are giving me motion sickness lmao. Great info tho!!
idk why but i tat with a 5.7v and i feel like it’s just fine with clear saturation but i can’t help but feel that 5.7 is too slow
Guess I'm in my canon rebel phase cuz I bought a tattoo machine kit and just been going at on my poor arm😂😂
would you recommend putting the fake skin on a paper towel ?
Yea that’s a good way to go when we are practicing! Try to place it on a silicone limb if you get one, it helps to tattoo on curved surfaces over flat as you advance.
This is one of the videos I enjoy watching every now and then to keep myself aware of my hand speed and voltages thanks again #danielyuck
Thank for a indepth handspeed video#DanielYuck
You’re welcome!
Thank you for your time and support as well,
I appreciate you 🤝

Telling a whole story just with his hands alone.
😂😂 I gotta make sure I get my points across for those in the back.
Is he going sideways with a mag talking about solid lines ? I can't tell if its a big round
The machine at 34 minutes is so quiet. The sound of the needles going into the rubber is louder than the machine
all the audio is coming from the left side. can you try and even them out for the next videos? super hard to listen to
Thank you for the feedback! I will definitely do better in all of my future videos. I apologize for the inconvenience. Rest assured I will do my best to get this resolved.
Great information vid thanks #Danielyuck
Good ass vids
Thank you Teezy! I appreciate your feedback and support.
Questions.... Why are you using a shader to line ?
Also when you let your needle catch , how to you prevent blow outs , wouldn't that overload the "catch" zone with ink?
These are great questions!
So for me I like to use round shaders for lining because I am able to get clean bold lines that I would not get using round liners.
For the catch zone question. If we go in directly to the catch zone I feel yes we can blow out the skin for sure. When we enter the line we want to use a taper like motion which not only gives the needle time to catch into the skin but it also prevents a blow out as well.
This would also depend on one's experience as blow outs can happen to any artist of any caliber.
@@DanielYuck awesome man thanks for the reply. IV been tattooing for around 7 years but learnt alot from your videos. Your doing well man keep it up! The guy who taught me uses to get a liner , heat it slightly with a flame then poke it thru his tshirt to "splay " the needles effectively turning a liner into a shader but have never tried to use a shader as a liner .... Going to give this a whirl
7.5
The talking with your hands for some reason has me livid lol just putting that out there but no hate lol
Oh man me too! Like no hate at all but either show us ya face talking or get on with it
Fr I feel the same
I don’t get the idea
You appreciate me? Lol
I really do! I mean it when I say that 🖤
I like 6.5 but I feel like 6.0 is a steady speed
It’s not super fast but it’s not super slow either
Thanks bro for information...this video is really useful for everyone
You’re welcome! Thank you as well for your time and support! I appreciate you 🤝
