      I have a question.When you are shading are you lifting the needles away from the skin like a brushing motion or is it more like scribing. Thank you

    Another tip for beginners: notice how he started at the bottom of the design, and progressed up through the tattoo. If he started at the top of the design, his stencil would have been rubbed away by his hands. Something to always keep in mind. Also, not only do you want to think about your line before you start it, think about your outline when you are designing your tattoo. Design your artwork towards your strengths in tattooing. Until you are excellent at lining, don’t put really long lines in your artwork-especially long lines that are not going to have any shading up against them to hide any imperfections. P.S. try to find an apprenticeship with coworkers that will help you on your path and share knowledge with you. A good crew will be invaluable to your growth as an artist.

    There's something refreshing about someone not gatekeeping and keeping people from learning. People will always ignore the rules and tattoo, so you might as well give them the info to do it well. It's harm reduction. 💕

After I got out of the Army I talked to some people and they all said the same thing, "Don't get a machine get an apprenticeship." Which I COMPLETELY understand. No one was willing to help at All. So 2 years later I got fake skin. I disobeyed their rules due to the lack of help. I can honestly say that your videos are amazing.

    My Dad and Uncle are both tattoo artists and they think the same as you, there's very little point in trying to hoard information about tattooing and keep it between professionals. People have been doing home tattoos forever, and will continue to do so, they might as well have the information available to help them do it safely. They both know the supply for apprenticeships doesn't meet the demand, it's not possible for everyone who wants to tattoo to get an official apprenticeship, if they want to tattoo friends or family then giving them a helping hand shouldn't be frowned upon. Kudos for doing this man. Those are some damn clean lines.

    I’ve been looking into become a tattoo artist for about 3 years. After many artists turning me down to apprentice I’ve finally this year turned to online training. This video was incredibly helpful. Too many people afraid of competition instead of just being confident in their own work and own personalities and being willing to share their knowledge. When I choose a tattoo artist I look at their attitudes and if it’s crap I don’t care how good their work is, I won’t give them my business if they can’t be kind. You are a glimmer of light here.

    One of the first ink slingers I’ve ever seen that didn’t talk like he was God among men and don’t care to help beginners like me with some knowledge. I’ve been painting and drawing for 30 years. I’ve been playing guitar for 27 years. I built a lot of mechanical things. So I’m a long time artist to say the least. It has been a long time passion of mine to learn out to lay ink. I have a very steady hand for lines, I understand shading as a artist. I just don’t know how to relate my skill into laying ink. So thanks for this. I’ve got my first machine and I’m about to start tatting some oranges for the next couple of months and then starting on my self. And by then I’ll be ready to start as an apprentice at a shop. Hopefully I’ll be tattooing professionally for customers by 2022.

And if you have a passion for art and tattooing could be an option for you. Thanks for watching and best of luck🤘👍🤘

    I just wanna say man thank you for putting this video out. In high school, my art teacher was pushing me to pursue tattooing, she told me I have the art style for it and what not. I'm coming up to 7 years out of school and I have tried pursuing an apprenticeship from a few shops but man the judgmental attitude at some of these places is disgusting. I understand it is a difficult art to master but everyone has to start somewhere ya know? So instead of being the shop bitch for a year or so i did buy my own tattoo gun. This knowledge you are sharing is what's gonna help me to improve on this craft without an old head talking down to me. Thank you so much, man.

    i'm so so thankful for this video. i'm 17 and my whole dream is to be a tattoo artist. my family always nags on me about wasting my time and art ability on this path but it's truly what i wanna do. i don't honestly have the money for an apprenticeship and probably won't until i'm like 24-25, but i'm getting a tattoo machine in order to practice (not on other people or myself of course, just on fake skin and fruit and shit like that.) i have lots of people discouraging me from learning without an apprenticeship, but it would be impossible for me to start my career path for another five or six years unless i go for it like this. you seem to be the most educated (DEFINITELY) out of all the research/informative videos i've found and i really appreciate you for that. thank you!

Now at this point you are 17 legally not an adult so I dont want to tell you do anything other then what your parents want you to do, so keep that in mind. However I dont want you to loose that drive so.... with all that said, CHASE YOUR DREAMS NOW MAX!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

    This is the most informative video I've found on my journey to learn. Thank you so much! I respect the profession of tattooing but I just like dabbling in new skills and this gave me the confidence to keep going. I'm not sure why this information is under lock and key. It's easier to learn 10 languages 😅 I'm wondering what are the chances you could do a similar style video but with a rotary pen? Most videos are just showing it in use with the assumption you already know how to use it. There's no beginner video. Or even a video explaining how tattooing varies with a rotary pen vs traditional machine and I could figure out what to adjust from there! Either way, thanks again for sharing!

    • @ArtSomething
      @ArtSomething  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Your right DD the information its self will not make anyone a good tattooist. It's the ones who take that information and really put the time and effort into crafting their skills. For that reason I dont know why these secrets are kept "hidden" there are no secrets really. Its just trial and error practice makes perfect. In this video I was using a rotary pen, I was using the Cheyenne Hawk pen with a wireless battery pack.

    Thank you for all the tips and tricks. All my life I have truly been fascinated with art and obviously into my adulthood I’ve grown very fond of tattooing. Having many myself now, I’m hoping to learn both how to draw and tattoo. I never had the confidence to try and learn and often times I’ve given up because of terrible anything I drew looked. But at 27 it’s never too late to try anything. I’ve ordered a relatively inexpensive starter kit to practice on pig skin w and am looking at buying a much nicer far superior gun next month. So far I’ve gotten plenty of friends willing to let me practice on them, but for the next 6 months I just really want to focus on mastering line work as much as one can and drawing very basic objects. I want to ultimately do American traditional w/ my own French spin on it and let that be my signature style, but for now this is what I need to understand the basics.

      Glad the video is helping you out!! And yes I used several caps of ink with varying levels of darkness. Here is a vid showing one of the ways I set my gray wash up for shading: th-cam.com/video/qYHfqfEj_r8/w-d-xo.html

    Love your videos! Thanks for the help. I know voltage varies from machine to machine, style of art , and hand speed. My question is what do you run higher voltage on, lines or shading? Do you want to run a lower voltage for shading than you would for lines? I’m running a dragon hawk mast tour pro.

      I usually run a little bit faster when lining and a little slower when shadding. Thanks for the support Nuno keep on rocking! 🤘🤘
