I was a full-blown scratcher in my teens (decades ago). I put down the machine. Saw your vids in 2019/2020 and made the exact mistake you're pointing out. I rushed into black and grey realism, luckily my legs was the only skin to suffer shaky lines and bad saturation. You've confirmed what I know I should do - starting again from the very beginning - can I freehand draw a straight line in every direction with a normal pen using the same grip I would with a machine? No. Can I draw a near perfect circle or figure of 8? No. If I can't do that, how will ever pull a clean line. I get practising with a real machine on fake skin as important as the shaking was always a problem for me even at lower voltage. I printed off 50 sheets of simple flash and even found that getting a freehand clean stencil is a challenge. I have a passion for art and am generally creative, but there is a science to this as you say, and it is a trade with serious implications...hopefully this time round I'll have the patience to build up to where I want to be. Thanks for this video.

I’m a 2 time award winning airbrush artist, and I’m never happy with my work, ie realism. I’ve also had my tattoo studio for almost 3 year. Like airbrushing I’m learning every single day. Awesome video Oliver

42:00 minutes in and still watching this video! For the last 2 years I’ve been strictly practicing the fundamentals and I still haven’t touched shading. Probably have tattooed over 50 skins (honestly just giving it my everything) and so many more already planned out. You really can’t skip anything, please don’t. Loved the video so far and couldn’t understand and agree with your opinion more! Killer video and opinion man and killer tattoos, I look forward to seeing what else you have done. I love what you said any different needles and all these things that don’t matter.. only if people knew that they can’t buy experience.

I'm trying to get there bro. I've been doing art most of my life I'm 46 now lol. I've been mainly airbrushing realism portraits and oil painting but transitioning to tattooing.

I was extremely fortunate that Chris Ravage came to my studio and gave me a 2 day seminar. I’d be buzzing if I got one with you dude

I hear you on the basics but it really depends on the artistic ability of the individual .. everyone learns at different speed .. some people will always suck for life .. while some may come out the gate like Michael Jordan.. granted MJs are rare af .. but the industry is chuck full of people who will always be straight garbage no matter how much time and effort they put in

@OLIVERAYRE hello I have a couple questions I just started tattooing and I have a 3 cover up tattoo on my right forearm how would I go about covering up the tattoo that's on my arm plus I have others that need covered up but I would like to know on your answers on how I should go about doing that cause the ones I have done or after I done the tattoos the lines aren't dark enough so I feel like I'm not pressing hard enough I would send u pictures of the recent ones I did on myself and my fiancé but don't know how to so I can get your opinions the one that is on my right forearm is going to be hard cause I'm not left handed but if u could comment back to let me know I would be super Grateful and I'm new to your channels I've subscribed as well :) but the first big tattoo I did on my fiancé you would be probably be amazed because its my very first tattoo I've ever done!:)
