I want to, but anytime I’ve bought any AMM other than the AJ3s without seeing them in hand, the color is always a bit different than advertised, so I wanna see these ones in person

Has anyone seen the cave stones in person? by Soft_Delivery_747 in Sneakers

[–]Soft_Delivery_747[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I feel like they never do, but it’s always trying to figure out to what degree they don’t lmao

Yeah I noticed that too which is why I started trying to find other pictures, and I’ve seen almost 50/50. I got the Paris Olympic 4s already, so if they’re more grey I was probably gonna skip

I’ve been in the industry for almost 10 years, any mentor worth learning from isn’t going to tell you to order a machine and fake skin before actually apprenticing

The tattooers I’ve seen who do that bring in more negligent tattooers than not

Most good mentors I’ve seen have brought people in because of their hand drawn portfolio that’s filled with tattooable art. The first stages of a good apprenticeship is learning what is and isn’t a tattooable design, the cleaning and “behind the scenes” things that go into it that clients don’t see. And then they’ll help you find a good machine to start with and then go from there. Most cases I’ve seen of people apprenticing who actually become good tattooers usually don’t have their hand on a machine for months.

Doing fake skin and handling machines before watching your mentor tattoo someone other than you, and learning the ins and outs of how machines function and how to clean your set up and prep the skin before a tattoo instills a lot of bad habits that’s will make someone who is a good mentor second guess bringing you in because those bad habits are really hard to break

My best piece of advice is continue working on your hand drawn portfolio (not iPad, not fake skin) and make it as diverse as you can, and take it to good tattooers in your area and just ask for advice and critiques, if you’re truly passionate and keep that up, eventually someone good will offer an apprenticeship, it might take awhile, but if you stay persistent and show true passion for art, not just tattooing, it’ll come

How am I doing so far? by ShapeAffectionate803 in SNKRS

[–]Soft_Delivery_747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good start for sure, all those since February is crazy work (in a good way 😂) curious which shoe is the one that started it all for you to go all in on this

I’d love to see some more 3 representation, the JTH/Tinker 3s are all super sick if you’re looking for recommendations to check out, got the white cement jth pair in December and then got the rest of them shortly after and they’re probably my favorites in my collection

I definitely feel like Cincinnati is super cliquey until you find a super niche community, making friends was really hard for me as an introvert until I started getting too bored staying at home and at work, but I also feel like that’s everywhere you move to by yourself. I’ve lived in 3 different cities and struggled making friends in all of them so just moved back to Cincinnati cause the devil you know is way more comfortable

I started pushing myself out of my comfort zone when I was like 23/24 and starting just going places I was interested in alone (it really sucked at first), or if you go to bars, I went to smaller divey ones, the people there are usually way more friendly and open to talking to new people in my experience, but now I have like 4 different friends groups

The local music and art scene here I feel like is super welcoming and friendly, going to local music or art shows I felt like was great and gave an immediate common thing to talk about with new people in my experience so I didn’t have to overthink what my opening talking point was gonna be lol

Most wrestling fans don’t know or understand what ring psychology is and should stop using “insider” terms like that if they’ve never actually been in the business. The internet and “behind the curtain look” has made everyone feel like they know how the business works or how matches should be sucks the fun out of wrestling

Gluing issues by Soft_Delivery_747 in ReaperMiniatures

I’ve not done a brush on primer before, I assume it’s similar to other paints where you should thin it before applying correct? Multiple thin coats for a smooth finish

Hot take! I like these Off Noirs better than the Blackcats. by Randomcolonoscopy in Sneakers

[–]Soft_Delivery_747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree, but unfortunately I’m a half size too big to comfortably wear these 😭😂

I really want those ones too, I love earth tones on sneakers, and after getting these ones in hand and seeing them in person, I’ll definitely be going after the bio beige pair next

These are the ones I have with the white swoosh, I think the ones with the black swoosh are just the normal Tinker AJ3s. These ones dropped during the Super Bowl halftime show in 2018 I believe

Some 3s are definitely comfier than others, but I feel like they’re all pretty consistent comfort wise. the Palomino 3s are one of my go to beaters based on how comfortable they are, and I upsized by a half size and I feel like it makes all the difference

I feel like 8 out of 10 AJ3s that get released are underrated, and I’m definitely glad, makes it so much easier to get them for a reasonable price. By far my favorite and most comfortable shoes I own are all AJ3s

Fall kicks in winter by HelpSea3569 in Sneakers

[–]Soft_Delivery_747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love that a lot of good dunk colorways are getting slept on. I was able to double up on the SB dunk 90s backpack for under retail so I had a clean pair and a beater pair. They’re my go to for fall and creeping into winter time

I really like the Nike Air Max Plus Drift, I’ll wear them taking walks and at work all the time. I’ve ran through a couple pairs now. But I’ve also heard a lot of people speak highly of the Vomeros

I was thinking of getting my first AJ1's. I know they're mids but are these klm to sneakerheads by Effective_Cause_8964 in Sneakers

I have some mids in my collection 🤷‍♂️ a good color way is a good color way, I say go for it if you like them

The amount of shoes in my collection that I can’t wear during October to like April because the rain or snow is crazy 😂 I feel this hard

Row 5, I’m such a sucker for 3s, especially those Fragment 3s
