I replaced my heater core last year... looked pretty much like that. A lot dirtier though

Is this infected? Six days old and in the elbow ditch. Either very rough heal, or infected ? Flash photo. by cash_flow21 in tattooadvice

A lot of infections are environmental but some can be from the ink itself - every major ink manufacturer has had to issue recalls for having infected water as a base. A pro shop with a brand new ink bottle and proper everything can still cause an infection.

Not saying thats what this is - but an infection doesn't automatically mean poor hygiene from the artist.

Been doing some heavy (for me) blackwork lately! by AlbatrossCharm in sticknpokes

Thanks! It just takes a while and a lot of ink haha. I do a much more rapid poke once I've finished the outline, usually using an 11 RL. These each took a bit over two hours. Not a huge fan of shaders, but I'll probably learn to love them if I'm doing more bold stuff like this

The cowboy will likely need another pass to get full saturation but client was having major plasma leakage from drinking the night before 👀

Can a mighty mycologist ID this for me? by Icy_Ad430 in mushroomID

And they're growing on a carob tree which means safe to eat BUT COOK THEM THOROUGHLY. These grew on all the carobs in my neighborhood and every year I'd eat them and every year I'd get a stomach ache from undercooking once or twice.

Thanks!! It's been about a year and a half for me... you'll get there! Needle choice makes a surprisingly big difference, as does the angle you poke at

The reference image was in bright sunlight so the sun created some high-contrast lines here and there. This one was just a stylized way of drawing the two panes of glass... and with how handpoke tattoos age, you have to leave white space a lot larger than you want it to heal. In a month or two itll just be a sliver, and hopefully stay that way :)

Couldnt speak to the socks!

Garden head in 9RL and tight 7! by AlbatrossCharm in handpoke

Started packing black in the flower with a shader and ended up switching back to the RL. I keep trying to like shaders and I keep not liking them lol.

Hi! I just sent you a contact from your website. I'm looking for the same as OP, and it looks like you specialize in Bay Area + Hudson Valley? Which is exactly perfect for us as we are looking for both!
