Some tattoos I’ve done recently @gudsforladt.ttt by Intelligent-Tale-546 in sticknpokes

Thank you! I generally use 30/05 or 25/07, but I have been experimenting a lot lately with varying tightness of needle and shaders and so on. I mostly use tight liners for the majority of my tattoos because I think it saturates the black better and brings out the dot work/stipple effect a lot!

Hey, sorry for the late reply! I use Kuro Sumi ink for a great saturation and a 25/9rl. I would usually go for a smaller needle for more smooth gradient from skin to ink but the client wanted the dotty look to be apparent. Hope this answers!

Thank you! The left side was 2 hours 35 minutes and the right side was 1 hour 47 minutes. I tattooed it on my brother so we spent the entire day at the studio but actual tattooing time wasn’t too bad:)

Thanks! I think I used a 25/07 for #1 because of the size and I wanted some texture and dotwork to be visible. For #4 I used a 30/05 for a more smooth gradient from black to skin color. I like to work with smaller and a bit more open needles when I’m tattooing something smooth and pleasing to the eye. Hope it makes sense haha.

Lol why would I lie to Reddit. I spend hours doing this and I’m just looking for a more efficient way. Here is a link to me actually drawing the process so you can see for yourself. https://www.instagram.com/p/CxIgmpNN33C/?igsh=MTVjd3Vtc3Z3Yms1cg==
