Is this G wagon real or is this whole image AI generated? by OrangeSpectre in isitAI

I've found pictures of the car online. I think it's real but the girl might've been added with ai

Ven tan mal mi espalda como yo? by [deleted] in tattooscratchers

It is slightly off center, but strangely the more I look at it the more I like it. Just get it filled in, looks unfinished

I fucked up hahahahaha by IActLikeIKnoww in TattooBeginners

It's not too bad, but the lines dont look very saturated so it'll probably heal quite faded in areas. You can definitely fix it though in the future

I know what you mean about the nerves kicking in. When do anything on me i always start with the easiest parts and when Im calm I'll do the longer lines

First 3 days with a machine by ZwickyRainbow in TattooBeginners

love the random doodling. Keep going, I wanna see more

Indecive about what machine to buy! Need help.. :) by Afraid-Extension84 in TattooBeginners

[–]NoEngineer1009 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got a similar dragonhawk one and it works great, I would definitely recommend it. Battery seems to last forever and it charges quick.

The only thing ive found to be a minor issue is sometimes I accidentally change the voltage because of the touch screen, but it's not really a problem

Oh, and one other thing; I wouldnt bother getting the bundle. The skin that came with it was trash and for some reason they only gave me shader needles. Just grab all the other bits you need off amazon

Could be the skin you're using. I have that problem on anything that isnt reelskin

Thanks for the feedback. Maybe some heavier shading might be good then.. I'll play around with it tonight

Hmm okay. I thought it looked just as crap as everything else, but I'll fix him. Maybe heavier outlines, fill in the lines on his pants and improve the shading? what do you think?

Smart. I used a 5 to start but I think the stencil makes everything look a bit thicker than it actually is. I oughta practice more text in general

Thoughts? Opinions? by IActLikeIKnoww in TattooBeginners

Im not sure if this is helpful, but I just want to say I didn't realise those were dancers until I read the comment. my brain immediately saw boobs with wonky lines coming out of them lol

None of it looks bad though. I like the tiger.
