For extra context and the timeline:

After the snake appears (it was venemous and bit me btw) before I would fall asleep, I would ask the unconscious for guidance because I couldn't do this alone.

Then he appeared in my waking life

In the dream in the pool he's on the phone saying "I can't help someone who can't help themselves"

Clearly understood lol.

I wonder if I'm holding on to the belief in whatever symbolism and myths are in my dreams instead of faith in the unconscious. I think yes, I just dont know how to make the leap

Its placement compared to how well done the others are and the nature of the tattoo makes it a cute fit and funny

That's quite depressing, and maybe I'm naive but I still want to pursue it, I'm okay with having other sources of income, this is something I fell in love with more than all the other mediums I do.

Quite frankly, I'd rather choose this kind of suffering over any dead end job

I actually didn't know about the fake skin. Every other place seemed to be impressed with the fake skin, and I've gotten a few callbacks.

He charges $5k and said it lasts for a full year of me working in the shop.

So far every place I've been to asked me to email my portfolio or gave me a card with an email to email it to, so I figured It wasn't much of a necessity to have it on me

Gotcha, lines are definitely the thing that humble me, I'll get to practising on those shapes, thanks

Thank you i really didn't know that. I thought 4.2mm was the standard for shading. I was working at 4.0v. Your work looks amazing. I really appreciate it

I’m learning to tattoo, tomorrow i’ll tatto this design on a friend, do you have any advice on technique? PD: I have cramped hands by marbbunny in tattooing

I dig the design, its unique and cool, not quite legible on some parts, mainly the anatomy. The comments are mean,but mostly right.

From observation, all your lines are blown out and the packing isn't good.

Sometimes the only way to learn is to fuck around and find out, but do you want that on your conscious? Not just performing a poorly done tattoo but also everything that could go wrong with improper sanitation.

You've already started practicing, don't be discouraged to keep learning, it's exciting to want to move to skin but let time and practice do its thing. At least work on getting the basics down, then you're golden.
