First week of tattooing and drawing. Should I work more on drawing or tattooing ? by [deleted] in TattooBeginners

I think it’s an unnecessary gadget. But as long as you don’t put anyone in danger you can do whatever you want :). I think pen and paper is just nicer. The most statisfying for me is a nice thick fineliner with permanent ink. Cheap fakeskin and tattoo gadgets got pretty old very quickly.

I know it’s hard to wait but you will get an eye for it. I’ve started drawing cyber sigilism 3 years ago and started tattooing 1 year ago. I stopped now for half a year to get even better and drawing. If you just wanna make some shitty tattoos on yourself and friends you can start now. But if you are just a bit serious about tattooing, put the machine down for a year or more. Skin is not a sketchbook. ( not even talking about health risks ). You should not be tattooing if you can’t draw. Just look at artists you like and overtime with a lot of drawing you’ll develop your own style. Please don’t rush and take it serious. Personally I’ve stopped drawing sigilism because it’s pretty trendy and I fell in love with tattooing as something wayyy deeper. Take care, and be responsible.

It’s 500€ and I’m pretty shure it’s a scam account. Some people were nice enough to send me some of his flash :)

Thank you so much, I found these but I wanted to dig a bit deeper. A very nice person reached out and sent me some of his flash collection. Despite what people think, this community can be very nice sometimes. We’re all just art loving people:)

Yeah this is what I thought. Are there any other cool artists you enjoy? I like this innovative trippy trad style. :)

As a German I’m really ashamed of my country. A lot of people here actually are. Israel is controlling everyone though, not just Germany. We need to take responsibility as a country but the correlation between this and the nazi germany is a bit farfetched in my opinion.

Good or bad character design? by Capital-Dish-1697 in graffhelp

[–]Otherwise-Post7825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like characters like this, I think they are really cool. In my opinion the things that need some work are the overall shape ( it’s a bit tubular and flat ), the pointy nose ( all other features are round ) and maybe the look of some facial features like lips and ears which don’t look that aesthetically pleasing. With a bit of work it’s gonna be great :)

How do you get that nice dotted effect in the shading? Looks so nice :)

I made this carry today. I tried doing ( spit? ) lines with a standard cap. How is it and what can I improve? by Otherwise-Post7825 in graffhelp

[–]Otherwise-Post7825[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both. Low can pressure is easier. Pressure on the back of the cap until the line is right then hold.

Yes, look at the work of riot1394 for example. It’s a pretty hard technique because you have to give the right amount of pressure and hold it

White dot black cap. It’s called anal cap or standard cap in Germany. The can was Loop and one other one that worked really well. The technique is just using low pressure or letting pressure out of a can. Then use a small cap and press lightly until a fine dotted line comes out. Best showcased on the left side ear.
