✅✅This is not opaque grey wash. I think there is some confusion around this as opaque grey washes have no water in them. They are black and white added to give the grey you want then packed into the skin like you would pack color in a color piece. This is black and grey wash with just 6 drops of white added to each cap allowing the tattooer to better see what each shade will look like in the skin. As you can see in the video the end result is not an opaque look its just softened a bit by the white in the lighter tones. I have been using the same setup since recording this video. I use this just as I would my normal grey wash this just allows me to see the tones better in the cap and maybe help me make better decisions because of it. I will have to use this set up for a while to really know if its something I want to use for good moving forward. Hope this helps and thank you for watching and supporting the channel!
Bravo for putting this out to the beginners I actually use this technique myself and you are right that it's not a opaque grey wash however these are opaque grey colors. That's why your able to lay it in just like color by packing it in and it stay the same time no matter how many passes you make. grey wash being just diluted black you can achieve 100% black using 20% by building it up making more and more passes makes it darker and darker, obviously you wouldn't do that Because of trauma but that's actually how you decipher grey wash from color. The second you take 2 colors to make another whether it's several tones or not tiss still color....
It's okay to call this an opaque grey wash or a whitewash. It's still cut with water and only toned with white to show the value of the grey. I think you're thinking of just a standard opaque grey how you're describing it.
That isn’t how that works. This is opaque grey. & people struggling, shouldn’t be using them instead of a grey wash. Opaque grey is much harder to get to stay &/or make look nice. Especially if you don’t know what You’re doing. Washes & opaque should be used together.
@@HorizonEyes this is not opaque I encourage you to look into opaque grays. This is not packed in like color. I use this everyday since then and it works just like it would without the 6 drops of white. It acts just like grey washes. Again you should look into a opaque gray set as it’s nothing like this setup.
@@ArtSomething I‘ve been using opaque greys for several years. This is the same thing. I don’t know what else to tell you. I‘ve done this & used premixed opaque grey. They both act the same, the only difference is this is slightly washed out opaque. 🤷♂️
you used your own leg as a test subject? dude that's a mad respect and you deserve a sub!
Lol. That’s how it should be. Lmao. I have done 75% of my own tattoos over the last 15 years Including my own face tats
Pretty standard stuff as an artist lol
Not saying he uses it but there’s also numbing cream
Legs are made to be butchered. Unless you wear a speedo all summer lol
Well, that's why I'm here as well 🙌🏽
Thanks for the vid Dave!
Great as usual, very informative.
Im thinking adding white must do something to the opacity of the shades (like in watercolours vs. guache) meaning the pure black+water washes will have abit more clarity since the skincolour breaks through the black to create the shade.
Not saying that one is superior to the other but standard wash should produce more clearity and greywash should be more consistent since skintones/colours vary but the grey reduces the variation in the end-result.
Also some or most black inks are made up of very saturated blends of other pigments so they will pull towards warm/cool especially after a few years or when blended with white. I have noticed adding a drop of red and a drop of blue in a full cap of black often looks nicer than just using the black out of the bottle.
Tried this with Panthera "the gloom" and Dynamic Triple black.
Cheers buddy, keep up the great work 💘
It helps bro
Glad to hear it Marat! 🤘🙏
You should try true grey, mixing black and white.
I would love to dry that as its pretty much like packing color at that point. Only thing is I dont know of a good setup like white to black for each shade. If you know of a good setup ill deff try it out.
@@ArtSomething ink yeyes in TH-cam has a nice setup, uses it for coverups

Thanks 🙏🏽
Muito bom mesmo
Holy shyt!!!!!! You might have just cracked the code for me!!! My biggest issue with doing realism was that I couldn’t tell distinction between the tones once on the skin often causing me to over work the skin trying to achieve certain blends. Adding white helps me identity which tone to use immediately!! Thank you so much for this tip
Best explanation ever.... even with realistic demonstration. TH-cam should highlight this video as "standard reference" for Gray-Wash Tattoo queries.
First
Right on Freedom Fighter your on it today! 🤘🙏🤘 Thanks for the support
I really like the look of a white wash. I've been experimenting myself. Dave I was wondering what white you use to make your white wash? Thank you so much for your sacrificial leg lol!
To me it looks like with the white added made it better.. just black and distilled is a bit transparent to me..the white sorta fills in the gaps in the transparency and heals better and you can see the difference in tones. Good stuff bro
Hey bro, big fan of yours. Question, have you ever tried a drop or 2 of mauve in your deep black to add a little maturity to your dark tones? I picked that trick up some years ago and it took my black shade to a whole new level. Semper fi.
@@rest_in_pain think like deep burgundy or more of a reddish purple. It adds a little more value to the tones when they settle in the skin over time. It is really cool because ink always stays liquid under the skin.
This technique helped me with fake skin. I was having problems getting the light tone I was looking for
Glad it could help as it has helped me big time and I still use this setup to this day. Thanks for watching appreciate the support! 🙏🤘
Love how soft look that shades with the white added…I will definitely try it out.
@Art-Something dude, can you please say thanks to your leg for me?
NOPE NOPE NOPE AND NOPE. drop system for b&g does not need white, your tattoo will a complete mess number , number two, if you can't remember a number sequence that goes from light to dark then you shouldn't be tattooing g in the first place, third, the light color will heal light BUT YOU STILL NEED TO KNOW THAT YOU SHOULD ONLY BE TICJ}KELING THE SURFACE OF THE SKIN TO ACHIEVE THIS LIGHT GREY WASH LOOK. this video is only gonna help the person that doesn't undertstand value, gradient, and pendulum motion. if you want to master shading, do it the only right way, not some white mixed in black, imagine the trauma to the skin , the redness, the fact that you ink is gonna dry up and be a complete mess making you wipe and wipe the skin to get a clear judgement of the value your shading. this is a complete mess! but hey , you get the clicks and views right? derp
Hey man I appreciate your reply and insight but I can tell that you dont really know what your talking about and thats ok. I use this setup everyday and Love it. My tattoos heal great and work out great for me. I also understand that what works great for one person might not work the greatest for another person. SO with that said I hope that the way you do things works great for you but believe me there is far more then one way to skin a cat. Thank you again for your insight as its great to have other opinions other then my own displayed here on the channel. 🤘
Offering your leg for us to learn, much love and respect sir!
I love been using the white drop method since Mike Devtues book came out like 15 years ago . Works great , when I was younger I felt like I was cheating for some weird reason . Lol . Tends to hold up better over the years , I guess because of more ink pigment saturation
Having said that below, the softer shades do look smoother!!! 👌
What white ink is best ink. Some white inks are faded away after tattoo healed. Which white ink stay longer without fading. Thank U Sir.
I prefer star bright white. I haven’t tried all the whites but star bright white is definitely my favorite.
This gave me a lot more confidence, I was useing a simple 3 cap set up, will definitely try, thank you for the video it really helps out a lot
Glad it was helpful! And thank you for the support!🤘🙏
Love the white added, it adds a beautiful soft effect. Great video with amazing samples as usual!!!
I agree I really like the look with the white added as you said it really softens it up a little. Thank you so much Brielle I appreciate the support!🤘🙏
@@ArtSomething your videos are always informative, well explained, and well done with the editing and real life applications. Your channel’s inspiring even to me, a painter, who doesn’t have a single tattoo. The art of tattoos has always fascinated me, hence I discovered your channel. It inspired me to purchase a tattoo machine last summer and have done faux hands with the help of your videos. Just wanted to share that not all your viewers are tattoo artist or even tattoo owners :)
Awesome. Thanks man, I really appreciate you and your videos. :) I'm going to give this a shot.
Omfg thank you so much
Thank you SO MUCH! I have been struggling with this a lot - to the point where I just do linework and shade with some stipple. So this helps tremendously!!!
That is AWESOME to hear!! Really glad the video came out in time to help you out. Keep working at it and Keep Rocking!! And thank you for the support!🤘🙏
I wold like to see a work with 3 tones of black.is it posible?
IT is absolutely possible. Most of the time I only use about 3 caps of my set up for some tattoos. I still poor all my caps as I do each tattoo but it doesn't mean I use all of them for each tattoo. I hope this helps and thank you for the support Irvin! 🤘🙏
Nice , thank you sonmuch. I'll try it 🤙🏼
hello can u expalin I saw some one makes gray wash
black ink with distiled water
black ink with white and distled water
black with light blue or green and distillled water
whats the best for dark skins?
The black with distilled water is how I made my grey wash for a long time and it works great.
Black ink with white and distilled water like in the video is the same as just black and water only the 6 drops of white in each cap will allow you the user to better see what each tone looks like rather then all the caps appearing black. As far as the blue and green I have NO idea what that is about seems strange but hey there are a lot of ways to do things. Best for dark skins would be to work more in your darker tones as the darker the persons skin is the less you will be able to use/see those really light tones. So try to stick with darker tones throughout the tattoo. I hope this helps and thank you for watching and supporting the channel! 🤘🙏
As always, a solid video brother! You are helpful af! Always using your leg in the name of science 😁.
You should make a video about shading on darker skinned clients.
No problem Brian always happy to give up the leg for TH-cam Science lol. Thanks again for the support!🤘🙏
Thank you for all you do brother. Thank you for your service as well! As a fellow vet and artist I appreciate what you do for the Community and especially for the beginners. I will be sending my art soon I’m just picky as we all are! Stay awesomeness brother

well this is fckn usefull. done subscribing. yeah!!
thnx btw for this😂
How much % is in every single cup? Pls.first is 100% and next cups? Thanks for answer.
Hello, it's a bad idea to mix black with white, not every white paint is suitable for mixing, and it's impossible to predict how white paint will affect over time, it's better to learn to work without white paint and learn to paint by working with contrasts.
This technique will work well, but not in all styles where greywash is required.
Do not forget that our skin is a living organism where there is melanin, and it primarily affects the light color and distorts it over time.
-------------------------------------
Привет, это плохая идея мешать чёрный с белым, не каждая белая краска подходит для смешивания, и невозможно предсказать как белая краска будет влиять со временем, лучше учиться работать без белой краски и учиться рисовать, работая с контрастами.
Такая техника вполне будет работать, но не во всех стилях где требуется грейвош.
Не стоит забывать что наша кожа это живой организм где есть меланин, и он влияет прежде всего на светлый цвет и искажает его со временем.
How is this different than opaque grey?
If you know what opaque grey is then you would easly see the difference between them. Opaque greys have NO water in them and loads of white. This setup has a few drops of white and the rest is Water. SO really they are nothing alike. I hope this helps Damian and thanks for watching and supporting the channel my friend!🤘
How big these ink cups? 15-17-18mm? Maybe i use too small and thats why my 2 drops cup is still too dark for me. Just an idee 🙃
Hell yes! Brilliant! Needed this big time!
Glad it could help Kayla and thank you for the support!🤘🙏
Hey buddy! I’m from brazil, so sorry to my bad english lol! But here, there is a man teaching how to make a simple “diluent”! Destiled water, gliceryn bidestiled, alchool 70°. He says “This is the BEST OF WORLD!” His name is TUZINHO TATTOO
gd shet !
🤘🙏 🤘
Love it. That was a great idea. It seems like a softer pigment but way easier to use or apply.
do u need to wash the needle everytime u use different tone sir ???
Depends upon what your doing. If im using a light tone and move to a darker one then I dont see the need in washing the light tone off just to add a darker tone. However if it was reversed going from a dark tone to a light one you would prolly want to do a quick rinse before doing so. hope this helps and thanks for watching and supporting the channel! 🤘🙏
Imo I think no matter what diluting any of these with water just makes the healed look like it's faded, not gray, just faded black. Could you try this exact same process again with JUST drops of black and white? It makes sense right? You just color with 100% color? This would be a dope tattoo TH-cam science experiment 🎉
There wasent much difference as you added water, just do them all just white and black then you get your opaque greys that actually look great and good for cover ups
Hey sir i got alot of learn from you thank you micro tattoos need black wash? like using 1rl needle with dot shade.
Thanks for using your leg again very helpful and interesting your aussie fan
My Aussie Fan!! Thank you Jason glad the old leg could help you out my Friend and thank you for the support!🤘🙏
It’s such a good idea but I’m nervous about switching my set up. How did you handle that? Are you going to switch it up?
I have also been told adding white to black and making that grey is called Opaque gray and it’s not a true “grey wash for black and grey tattoos” what do you think?
This is not opaque grey wash. I think there is some confusion around this as opaque grey washes have no water in them. They are black and white added to give the grey you want then packed into the skin like you would pack color in a color piece.

You pack 6 drops in 14 caps, I would be interested to know if we pack in 30 ml bottles how many drops of white color you would have to put in
I've tried this technique.. few years back.. out of just curiosity and a kind of bored of the norm interest I guess.. it didnt change much for me if I'm honest.. the white sinks.. the black/diluted blacks rise.. so you end up with the same thing.. looks great initially.. but made v lil difference for me personally.
Often of recent years I do personally often (not alwats) like to add a couple of drops of opaque grey to my black & my diluted tones .
(Note: as with adding white, opaque greys will also sink after a while.. so be aware. May need to stirr a few times during session.)
.
Using medium sized cups ..
Black (outline & triple x) - 2 drops dark opaque.
Dark grey - 2 drops dark opaque
Medium grey - 2 drops medium opaque
Light grey - 2 drops of lightest grey opaque.
2 x Diluting ink cap also.. to thin out & lighten further if needed.
I also put out a cap of intense platinum dark and light.. (I find it great when I want a slightly different tone in the greys..
I also like a cap of lightest grey opaque available in my set up as I find it great for highlights, over just using white which "can" (not always) yellow over time, especially if seriously packed in, it is more apparent next to grey wash tones if it does. (others may disagree.. just my opinion/experience) .. the lightest grey creates a good highlighting tone.. 👌🏻
I find the addition of a lil opaque in my washes in pieces really helps with the look of the healed work.. I've never really been one to conform, I'm not a purist. F that.. I like to do what works for me and whatever looks best and creates work the clients love.. a lil opaque in the grey washes seems to get em in alot quicker to.. and it doesnt mean you cannot use pure grey wash in your gradients with no opaque added still.
I find the addition of a couple drops of opaque darkest tone in my blacks really gives a good smooth well saturated finish.
I will just state though that if you've not used a set up like this before.. go gently.. as the more passes you make it can easily build up to a heavier saturation of the pigment tone.. but, with practice and fine tuning.. I've found it to be a fantastic way to work. Heals absolutely beautiful to .. works really nice when shading into and off black.
A lil drop of turquoise in each cup, alongside the opaque greys can also produce a really beautiful blue grey tone to work with.. it heals to a very aesthetically pleasing look.
There are no rules.. only the ones you choose to be conformed to.. think OUTSIDE the box of normal.. be unique.. try stuff out.. on yourself first if your curious
Just MY earned experience though 🤷♂️🙂 others may.. and can.. disagree.. we all work a lil way different.. that's what makes us creative artists.
Peace
My friend, then you recommend this technique of adding white to the gray wash, yes or no? thank you!
Again.. depends on the job.. opaque greys alongside grey washes work really nice..
Give it a try.. it might work really nice for you..
😊
@@djs9315 i love you
You're super helpful and really make me feel like that this won't be impossible to achieve, as long as I put in some effort. Thanks
Nothing is impossible with the right mindset. Keep at it and Keep Rocking!!🤘🤘
Thanks for the video!! i try to find a greywash for my first tattoos and i try i my leg this: 1large cup full black, 1 large cup 50% black for dark tones, 1 large cup 12drps black for medium, 1 cup 4drps and 1 cup 2 drps! and look great!!
It would be great to be able to you share some healing tattoos with your greywash!!!!
This is so dumb!
Instead of compromising for lessor work, we need to get the RIGHT quality equipment back (needles I'm referring to)
That's a great idea I think it would certainly help out with trying to get the right shades where you want them, great video, be safe and have fun
Thank you Al appreciate the support as always!! 🙏 You be safe as well and Keep Rocking brother!🤘
Would you mix say for example "dynamic white" with intense black.or eternal black ? or do you keep the brands the same when mixing the white and black ????
I dont tend to keep the brands the same. I use starbrite white or fantasia white to mix with my dynamic black, and if I had dynamic white I could use that too. So no worries.
@@ArtSomething thanks man ..lv your channel your a top dude ..lv from Ireland !!
You could do it once with the white and just take a picture and stick it above your station
Did you use dynamic white ink?
I use starbrite white for my white and starbrite mixing white for the drops added to my grey wash.
What if you mix some blue in there .just couple of drops .the tone will be awesome
Its insane how valuable this is to me! thanks man. AWESOME WORK
That is Awesome to hear Snapshot really glad the video is valuable for you!! Thank you for the support my friend and Keep Rocking! 🤘🙏
Me too!! This single tip single-handedly just improved my work. No more guessing if this is the right tone. I now know immediately!!
B4 making my grey wash, I always go by my clients skin tone. Of course the whitest or creamy skin tone is the easiest to tattoo on but when it comes to black skin or dark brown clients I create my grey wash based on them because not everyone heal the same.
Definitely drop a like for this man. Sacrificing his own body for our educational purposes 👏👏
I think adding white is not the way forward. Great video. Educational. 👌
it is so funny, i do the same to test a new wash XD. My upper leg looks like a DNA test XD- Thanks a lot for sharing. big hug from Germany:-)
Hi. I want to make gray sets in 30 ml bottles. How can I mix Dynamic 8 oz 2 triple black and white? thank you.
The only concern I could foresee is that I’ve heard a lot of people have bad reactions to white ink.. ? Any thoughts y’all?
I dont think any pro has this problem. Also mixing white with black isnt black and grey work. I mean technically it is black and grey but black and grey is supposed to be black and watered down blacks. No hate but this just seems dumb and bad advice
Just curious have you done the giveaway winners, I’ve rewatched all your recent videos and didn’t see it. Love your videos and appreciate the leg sacrifice!!!
Great question as I am recording them this evening and should have that video out on Thursday or at the latest next Tuesday. And thank you Derrick appreciate the support my friend! 🤘🙏
@@ArtSomething thank you for the info! And I really can’t say thank you enough for teaching me a new craft that I will enjoy forever.
How do you make the exact same wash value when you start to run out? Do you just fill a new cap? Asking because you add in a ratio variable when trying to assume how many more black drops to add to a partially filled cap to maintain the same value. I assume the more experienced you are the less of a problem this is but we're all not megapro. :)
I was thinking black and white mix till get gray take art in college . It works 4 drops of black white 4 drops
Will you is this mix for japanese waves and clouds? Is this mix easy to solid pack than standrd sumi mixes? Thanks
I used to use distilled water, I think I'd buy it ready made tbh. I'm not tattooing ATM but hope to soon.

WATCHING AFTER VERY LONG BUT U SHOULD PLS SPECIFY WHAT NEEDLES ARE BEST FOR LIGHTEST SHADING
In college i was practicing black and white makes gray how to make different types of black I get free college tuition my GPA trying fix it didn't was in to tattooing
Could you do this mix for a 1z or 4z bottle? It would be cool to make a white wash set to save!!
Just wondering why can't you just use white and black ink and no water ? That's what my current artist does. Is there any disadvantages to this ?
I say no you need more practice on gray wash it white gray values it's like college mixing
Try to mix black and teal by starbrigth and white for tattoo greywash
I followed this to a T and they all looked the same. Is my white junk? It would whiten up even a drop of black.
Actually that's pretty good. I always wondered why using the "white" version to the watered down version.. thanks a million for this =)

Nice vid! Could you make a episode about making stencils by hand, not printed? I know there will be difference between those lines - especially on fakeskin, but maybe you have some cool tips about this topic
Thanks for the support Gitrox! I have a video about how to make a stencil by hand two ways not sure if that is what your looking for?
@@ArtSomething damn, how could i miss those two... Thanks again! One question - does the type of paper matters (on real skin and fake skin)? Is ordinary white printing paper good as well as thiner attached to stencil sheet?
How do you not know which ink cap is what tone you should pour it out the same way every time , and that thing you’re about to try is not black and gray, grey wash
Way to kick off the year 🤩👏🏼 Thanks for a great head start into 2022 !!🙏🏼
This is actually a very interesting idea 🤔... actually a great idea lol. I would ask if you thought it changed the technique in your application compared to a typical greywash setup?? Thanks for the video bud, always awesome stuff
I have been using this set up for a few weeks now and really like it. People tend to get this confused with opaque black and grey as this is not an opaque black and grey but rather just a little white added to the caps so you the user can better see your shade values. I dont think there is enough white in the caps to really make much of a difference over all. I do notice its a bit softer when healed with the lighter tones but no difference when using them. If these where opaque black and grey it would be a totally different story as that is more like just packing color. Hope this makes sense and thanks for the support! 🤘
@@ArtSomething Yes that does make sense and i guess my mind went straight to opaque . Side note bud, sent ya an email with a couple tattoos im gonna send ya one i did for my wife on new years
I just number my washed with a sharpie on the paper towel

Hey your video was very instructive I've been tattooing 18 years but I've been in prison homemade ink needles
Thank you Corey glad the video could help you out. And im sure after tattooing in prison all the machines, needles and inks have to be a lot to take in. Best of luck to you my friend and Keep ROcking!🤘🙏🤘

As an observation, your complexion is on the pale side. Do you think the results would be any different on darker skin? Great video, and props to your leg!
Your VERY CORRECT I am extremely pale lol and im sure it will be a bit different on darker skin just as normal grey wash needs to be adjusted for skin tone. Thanks Adam appreciate the support my friend! 🤘🙏
The results would be the same, just adjust your shading contrast based on whatever skintone you're working on. I use this system with all my black and grey and it goes in the same as regular grey wash regardless of skintone; you get your gradients built up more quickly with the addition of some white in the mix.
@@deadweight2049 very cool. I have to try this. Thank you

hello bro, i'm from brazil, can you tell me the amount of white in each toggle
Put glycerin instead of distilled water, it will be even better.
What the cup size ???
the size should be pinned to the top of the comments on that video.
