one quick question : when a back piece require mutiple sitting for lining or straight on shading , do you re-apply another stencil on the next sitting ?
You can either ‘chicken scratch’ line the whole thing using light grey wash to make a ‘permanent stencil’ or re-apply it in sections for each session. Both ways work. Just depends which you prefer. Personally I prefer to rough all the lines in. Looks like cr*p to start with but I find it easier 👍
Did you ever figured out how to print continuously with the brother roll for the desired length? This stencil could be then done in 2 long parts right?
you guys should invest in a cheap paper trimmer, they are awesome for cutting those straight crop lines on the paper and then taping them together instead of using just scissors.
Symmetrical Large/wrap around neck mandala transfers.. 🤦♂️🤦♂️ getting em straight, both sides, horizontally and vertically.. and clean, with all lines adjoining.. man, tgats the hard part.. if it goes on wrong, especially on men, due to the stubble shaved area, is a nightmare getting it off.. the actual tattooing is pretty simple.. bit awkward as is a tight area, but achievable. Insisions help.. but my experience has been that these are challenging stencils yo lay as NEED to be as perfect as poss.. or they just look whack.. even if executed with goid lining.. the untrained eye will see the flaws.. Getting g a symmetrical transfer on a non flat.. multi angled area 🤯🥴 Any tips you've learned along the way would be appreciated... I'm always keen to hear others experience.. but if those I talk to.. everyone is like 🤦♂️😒😖
Asking myself if you See a difference in applying the stencil on a standing person vs one laying down. You think the Position affects the stencil?? Thx for the Video anyways
I have seen many very good tattoo artists who make the mistake of applying the stencil in a position that distorts the image in the normal position.. i think that the stencil must be applyied in normal,relaxing position....
I always try to position the client in the closest possible position to how the tattoo will be viewed. With large and tricky stencils even more so. Lay down with arms forward- I find - produces a stencil that distorts very little with no compromise to the application and position of the piece. It’s simple a case of checking once the stencil is applied, referencing the original image for unwanted distortion. It’s one of this jobs that gets less intimidated once you’ve done it a few times 👍
Why not just set the size of the canvas on procreate to the exact size of however many sheets pf paper you are going to need to print on? It's pretty simple.

Left < centre > right application on a full torso has the curves working with you, top/bottom has the curves fighting the paper.
Stunning piece of work. Looking forward to seeing its progression.
Thank you! I have a huge cherry blossom tree im doing and I was just gonna draw it free hand but its alot to free hand. thank you again for this.
Photoshop divide slice tool for multipage stencils is easier. Thanks for the 2 stage application tip 👍😊🇦🇺
But photoshop is a lot more expensive so this option helps those who are on a lower budget too 👍
Yes ‘print to size’ App works well too currently at £2.99, great content as always from you guys😊
Good to know!
This was a good tutorial. Glad I have affinity. Imagine having to do this stencil by hand.
Print to size is the app I use to resize my stencils. Thanks for the tips
True Legend!
Man this video was so helpful thank you
Can you do this same process in photoshop as well?
hell yeah that's made my day
awesome job

What printer you use mate
PJ773 for this. Currently using the PJ883. Much better - p
How would you go about reaplying the stencil on a second session if its going to be done in multiple sessions?
Tattoo the stencil in on your first session.
What's the name of the software??

Yeah, that’s an option too. But you’ll still need to stick them together and we find this method works best for us 👍
