Thank you for all the good info!! I’ve been tattooing now for about 3 years so it feels good that I’m doing some things right! But getting the stuff I need to work on highlighted is most helpful 👍🏻

@16:22 - only spots that are wet is what I was taught. eyes, maybe lips, teeth, but totally less is more.

@20:30 - it looks like a bootleg gameboy screen while drunk. I've done a couple of those 8Bit/16Bit tattoos, and they have to be so much larger than you expect - as I restenciled one of them twice to resize bc it was just too close together for longevity. So fastidious, but it looks sick.

@24:54, I stand corrected - not teefs, haha. That said, I also don't do portraits, but good observations and info.
