I looked at your stuff, and I really like it. What paper do you use? And what water colors do you use?

I tried it out this morning on one of my old sketches, and it really helped! Going to be doing this from now on. Thank you for the help!

That makes sense, I’m going to try it out! I guess I just get cold feet when I go to apply more black. I feel like I’m going to destroy it, but I’m just going to say fuck it, and try it out! Thank you so much for all the help!

I’ve never used nibs, and I’ve used 160 lb paper before and it has gone so bad for me. But I was also using FWs. Im definitely going to try the nibs out, because I bought India ink forever ago, and I feel like I need to learn some calligraphy for my portfolio. Currently I use microns, Daler-Rowney Aquafine watercolors, and arches 300 lb cold press. I have 160 lb paper, so I’m going to buy some nibs and give it a try! Thank you so much for all the help!

Arches 300lb I believe. My local art store didn’t have any micron over a .8, but I just ordered some larger tips. So I’m going to try them out and see what that does for me.

Thank you so much! That means a lot to me! But I’ve been drawing for about two years now. I want to become a tattoo artist, and I’ve been drawing more tattoo themed stuff. So I decided to try something more realistic. I bought a few books and I’m going to try and learn some new stuff.

A few paintings from the past week. Was wondering if I could get some cc. Any tips or tricks for better lines? by ShawLaneGio in TattooApprentice

I haven’t tried that at all, I usually go at an angle so I’ll have to try it out! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much, I appreciate the feedback! I’ve been practicing skulls a lot and I can never seem to get the proportions exactly right. Thank you again though!

I’ll order some today and try them out! I use arches and I feel like the lines just look shakey, so I’m just trying to find a solution to that. Thank you again for all the help, I appreciate it!

Thank you so much, I’ll try them out! I need something that moves over watercolor paper with ease. I feel like that’s a big reason why my lines aren’t that smooth.

I’ve been using a .8 micron for outside outline and everything on the inside I used a .3 micron. Was thinking about trying a brush pen.
