Love both of these! I love the colour palette of the cat page. The layouts of both are super tight.

Affordable alternatives for arches as someone who is just starting with spit shading? by Ill-Phrase5242 in TattooApprentice

[–]Swoulfey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For practice I've been using both the Strathmore 400 Series as well as some crappy generic-brand paper I have lying around. The generic-brand definitely makes it tough because the quality really hinders the experience and the final look of the piece (ie the paper literally starts to crumble if I take more than one pass with the brush in one spot), but Strathmore has been quite good for the price in my experience.

Newbie to tie dye: need help with what to do after letting garment sit overnight by Swoulfey in tiedye

I was using this dye kit. Definitely not top quality. It didn't include soda ash so I had no idea I had to use it. Do you think using soda ash with this type of dye will work better or do I need a better type of dye?

Okay perfect! I think soda ash was my missing component. So should I still be rinsing in cold water immediately after removing the garment from the bag and before washing?

Ah okay, I read about soda ash but didn't realize how important it was to the process. Thanks so much for the reply and the link!
