@bcrawfordflushing my advice is don't try to start tattooing till you have your portfolio consisting of at least 20 to 24 pages of your best work to take to a tattoo shop to show them and maybe they will give you an apprenticeship if your drawings are good enough. If you buy a kit and start doing it yourself you will most likely develop bad habits and techniques. A tattooist will want to train you from scratch making it harder for them as you have got bad habits already. And their is no website
I gotta question, I'm just starting out and I bought Blacker Tattoo Ink 8oz to practice with. How thick should the ink be? And when I tattoo on the practice skin, Inks splatters alot? And lastly, were can I find a website/fourm about everything you need to know on tattooing. Or perhaps a book?

what do you put on the napkin when you whipe the extra ink away?? what can i put on it to keep the stencil there but have a clean look?? Im using practice skin too btw
@kaysqueeze I am the guy on the video i used my sisters account to post it, used a lot of petroleum jelly it helps to wipe out those excess inks, goodluck
@GMApplemonkey I am the guy on the video i used my sisters account to post it, thanks man i am currently working at a tattoo shop now and its been great been working there for 2 years now thanks again
whats best skin to get am in uk and the skin i have used you have to dig right in and doesnt wipe off easy, it just crap any one got a good place to get skin like that cheers
hey idiots this guy said rubber bands....not gloves.and no...the bands dont change shit.they make the needle more stiff in the tube.u gotta leran to tune up ur machine man.....pretty good job...
@youngstarrzzz what about if the bands are too tight they pull the needles slightly upward and ya get ink spatter?? and you say the bands dont do shit...you know nothing
@zeffman99 if they are too tight yes you get splatter. but thats why they special size bands for this reason. so they arent too tight most ppl run two but i usually run one of them
One the rubber bands are not to high. Two if you knew anything about tattooing that sounds exactly like he has the voltage just a tad low but some people like to run like that, its pretty much a matter of personal preference .
wally on second look.. yea you're right abouthte rubber bands.. but I still disagree about the sound of the machine... I run my machinses high low and everything in between and they hummm... i'm just trying to help out.. and yes I do know a bit about tattooing...no need to be rude..
why are you bouncing all over the place? you work one area at a time. shade in a area for 5 min. move over to another area and then go back and finish the first area after the skin has cool off. the skin will get red and if you dont move away for a minute you cant judge the value of grey .
really nice, im gonna try and get my self a complete kit and start practicing. not looking for a career just a fun thing to do on the side. maybe get good and do tattoos for friends and shit.... looks awsome for practice skin dude =D
id say bend the 2nd skin over your knee or on someones arm that way you have a more realistic feel. no ones body is flat so your ganna have to learn to flow with the body
the practice skin i got cant be cleand the ink drys on it and it fucks the whole thing, ink all over, what skin do u use and plz tell me do u use any soap when whiping the ink out of the skin?
yeah what that guy said, use petroleum jelly to clean it off...i had the same exact problem with my first practice skin, it fucked the whole thing up.
Dude! You got it going. Great fucking shading. Thanks for the video. I 'm learning how to tattoo on my own cuz you know there are just assholes out there that don't want to teach you, but thanks for sharing this. It's amazing! A+++
thanks daantheman76 , theres a lot of instructional video but the best way to learn it is to practice, practice, practice a lot of practice and try to see a professional tattoo artist and watch them tattoo someone or get an apprenticeship ,....GOODLUCK !
sweet tat those skin mats aint cheap! like the dio remix playing in the background i was thinking! practice on my legs i got 2 huge tats already so a few more cant harm :P keep it up <3
actually this is my video i just gave it to my sister so she can upload it but anyway, im using petroleum jelly to wipe it clean and smoothly....im on the realskin tattooing right and just a friendly advice for you workhard,focus and be patience dude you'll get there never let your confidence down and don't listen to those A-holes just keep moving alright.....goodluck dude

your machine doesn't sound right and your rubber bands are too high.. (that MIGHT be why its not running smoothly)
