[@PeanutButtHair]

This is it, brother man. I don't skip your adds either and I like the videos. This is dope as hell.

[@orangeuchiha1729]

thanks big help!never skip your ads.

[@BrittanyRaeHof]

I love the color videos, I want to specialize in color and these are so great! Thank you

[@virgilthewolf8950]

These are great and your teaching approach is extremely easy to understand and adapt to my own tattooing thanks

[@florenciajerez8108]

Do you wait for the shading first to heal or you just continue right away with the color after it? and for example black and blue, cleaning needle is enough or you change needle?

[@ItsLucy]

At 4:58, you mentioned to never do dark colors first. I thought that dark colors always go in first, and then the light ones. Is it incorrect?

[@maxdev-9322]

I second that question

[@RidingWithGaryB]

Yeh, he deff kinda miss stated that. Dark colors later will always muddy up the tattoo. Which he also said just a moment before saying this...

[@Tattooing101]

My bad! I meant to say "always".

[@Tattooing101]

I've made the edit to that part! 🤓

[@aboriginal.man.1492]

Thank you !

[@jadeclark1884]

Would love to see a video about your thoughts on battery grips like the Peak Forge or Inkclaw Phoenix. They're a cool idea, but a lot of artists have concerns about sterilization, would love to know your thoughts on them

[@RidingWithGaryB]

Like i was taught...a color piece is first a completed black n grey piece. Create depth and tattoo longevity...

[@DevinLepine]

Hey Brandon, I know you used the bishop, but was wondering if you could recommend a disposable grip for the inkjecta flite nano you used to use. Having a rough time finding good disposables for it or even adjustable disposable ones. Loved the video as always and look forward to the next each time!! Cheers!

[@Zebra_Cakes]

One of my biggest fears in doing this is tearing up the skin from going over top of the shading or another darker color and over working it

[@Inkjunkygaming24]

Always use the darker colors first before the light so you can avoid this situation

[@redarsenal3744]

Run 10v’s and do quick passes

[@Zebra_Cakes]

@@redarsenal3744 10 V?? lol I’ve barely run at 8.5 before

[@Zebra_Cakes]

@@Inkjunkygaming24 for sure, I always use the dark before the lighter shades

[@kylieschwartz964]

so my artist recently did a green vine on my and now I think the green is a little too much. could I ask them to do some shading with black over it to tone down the green? would that work the way I think it will to reduce the amount of green that is coming through? It seems like it could also add dimension to the leaves which I think may be lacking from the piece

[@Tattooing101]

Yep, adding some black shading over the green can definitely tone it down and add depth. It’s a solid way to balance the color and bring in more dimension to the leaves. Just talk it through with your artist-they’ll know how to blend it right for the effect you’re after.

[@huaweinegro6160]

Disculpa que voltage usas ?

[@101adamdrummer]

thanks for this . when i start packing in a lighter color over black.the black starts to go into the lighter ink from the fake skin...is that normal?

[@Tattooing101]

Yeah, that’s pretty normal on fake skin-it doesn’t hold ink the same way real skin does, so colors can mix more easily. Just clean the area thoroughly before switching to lighter ink to minimize it

[@101adamdrummer]

Thanks I appreciate your response. It was frustrating when my yellow was going green from the black shading😅

[@dshanbutler2807]

What's the best color to use

[@RockitRy]

I need to order more curved mags 😅

[@DeeJay91]

What fake skin was this you are using and where can i order it from?

[@silviotattoo3725]

This is linoleum.

[@slowboy4101]

What type of fake skin? Pleeeass 🙏

[@MvPx_Dream]

Reel skin

[@MykennaPavich]

Pound of Flesh is awesome too

[@Kumarcool123]
