Mind blowing how you just show us these tips & trick for FREE. Some of us don't have the funds to pay for apprenticeship much less an IN-STUDIO session with our local tattoo artists. Times have definitively changed for upcoming artists with videos like these. Thank you, on behalf of everyone, for what YOU do. I'd like this video a million times if I could. ❤ Keep doing you.

i use an inkjecta machine as well, and recently i started holding the machine spun around so the weight of battery and motor is pressing straight down instead of wanting to fall towards forearm. way easier on wrist after hours of tattooing. cant imagine im only one who does this, can't think of any negatives either. love your channel, its helped alot. keep it up

Hey man I started tattooing a few years back man I really do appreciate your videos. So many ppl keep this like its a damn secret and I get it to some degree. But anyways I appreciate the fact that you take the time to help ppl to learn. I started souly bc I thought it would be easy bc I can draw great....oh how wrong I was the it became the pursuit of overcoming the problems that I encountered. But anyways again. Thank you I know how hard it can be after 13 years of tattoong to answer the questions like how deep to go....lol...keep it up man I watch you even now for you option on things and you've helped me with stupid problems I've had before in the past.

It seems a lot of vets don't want to share their knowledge with new artist, especially this new wave of artist who pick up machines off Amazon with zero respect or knowledge of the tattoo craft or its history. So thank you very much Brandon, I believe you're doing your part for the tattoo community by making sure that new artists are at very least, doing things properly and safely, because if a person wants to tattoo this day in age, they simply will, because everything is readily available for them online. But also thank you for sharing your wisdom and the knowledge you've gained over your years of dedication to the craft. You're giving new tattoo artist a real shot at learning the right way 🙏 all respect man 💯💯 thank you

I'm new to tattooing and I can't for the life of me feel comfortable holding the "right" way. The only way it feels comfortable is basically holding it more like a pen with my thumb and pointer way closer to the tip. My lines are way more straighter doing it this way. I also have really small hands, not sure if that makes a difference or not. Can someone let me know if I should be trying to do it the other way or just do whatever works for me?? Thanks in advance for any help :)

Have you guys seen his videos where he sacrificed his leg for the sake of educational purpose of tattooing on a real human skin/1st trying out on yourself before you put ink onto another person's body? that's a banger of a video, yeah the live session, he has incredibly fast hand speed with the voltage set just right, i wouldn't for the sake of me miss it, but i think if you're starting out, fake skin's the best, the real skin part will come naturally

I've just finished my HSC exams and I've been interested in tattooing for a long time, I've done art as my main subject and currently waiting for my Cambridge exam results, what should I do to get into tattooing? Should I wait for my results or should I make a portfolio and start going into tattoo studios and apply for an apprenticeship? I need help to start.
@Tattooing1012 жыл бұрын
It's good that you have a background in art, the first thing I would recommend is for you to start drawing tattoo flash designs. Look up some tattoo artists whose style you like and try to start drawing your designs in that manner for practice. You'll quickly find out that drawing for tattoos is a different thing altogether. Once you've practiced enough and feel like you're ready to begin with your own flash designs, start to create a portfolio with all your completed designs. Most tattoo studios will only want to see finished designs and not works in progress. Most studios for the first 2 years of your apprenticeship will have you doing menial tasks like working the reception counter, taking down appointments, cleaning the shop, buying supplies, etc. If you feel like you can't wait that long to start actually learning how to tattoo, I recommend you check out our Artist Accelerator Program which is a fully online course that'll teach you everything a traditional apprenticeship would, and more!
