 How's everybody doing welcome back to my channel this week my client flew in for the next three days to get his inner Sleep and his chest covered up. So with that being said, let's get this day started. Let's go How you guys been been good man? Enjoying life. I see a little bit Not as much as you Hey, you look good, bro. Thank you. You've been losing weight. Yeah, I see it last time Mm-hmm. That's time. You said, uh, I reminded you of a wrestler I was all right. You look like a wrestler, bro Okay, I'll take that and I was like, wait a minute. What kind of wrestler What I'm thinking is maybe uh using just one image and extending it up because I feel like You have wide arms so if I can just Maybe extend it with one single project going from here to here and I'll do background going up Not not necessarily black but something that flows with it because you have open skin right here So I want to use that. Yeah, this one just catches your eye that one. Yeah, it's the it's the look the The image. All right. Well, other than that, you guys are set. You guys can enjoy your day We you guys have all day to enjoy It's hard to tell how long it's gonna take me. Yeah, I already know but I'm gonna try to finish at a good time So you guys can enjoy your time here tomorrow. We'll find you. Let's do uh 8 a.m. 8 a.m. Yes Ready, it's time Follow me, sir. That time, man. It's time. Damn. I just noticed your shoes You're looking nice today Did you shave? Yeah. Oh nice Take care of that for you So we're gonna be doing the inner sleeved in the next two days covering up the Superman logo It's gonna be an easy one Just because I'm gonna be using the headdress of the concept to cover up the logo of the Superman And yeah, I mean it's it's gonna be a fun. It's gonna be a fun concept Not stressful for sure I could do better. Nice What a stencil Yes, sir, look at that Oh I haven't even started and you can't even see the Already covered it up. Yeah, I already covered it up without me trying. That's gonna be fire. This is not even considered a cover of this So we finally put on the stencil here the The placement is super dope. I like the way it is. It didn't distort anything It's placed on the perfect area to whenever he moves his arm around. You're gonna be able to see There's times where when somebody plays a stencil on this area, they focus too much on going too far onto the inner That for you to show off your tattoo, you have to twist your whole entire forearm and we don't want that I'm really happy with the placement on the face. That's where I'm really going to be showing The way I'm going to be doing it the voltage my needle selection and all those little details And close-ups of how I'm moving my hand and things like that But as far as this this bottom area Not so much explanation. So let's get it Here all I'm doing is with solid black Just kind of shade it super lightly that way it creates some sort of dimension to to the shape of the necklace here and And continue with all the black Throughout the whole necklace because I wanted to make it look a certain a certain way Once I get to the neck and the face that's going to have a different look To separate it Just start doing the lips now the whole neck area. What I did is I grabbed my 13 curved mag and I used nothing but solid black to be able to achieve a different kind of texture And I'm going to continue that texture on the on the face And then once I get to the armor part on the on the chain area and the nose area I'm going to switch to my true grace because I want to separate it But With my solid black, this is how I'm achieving soft look And I'm using it With a voltage of a 5.0 And barely brushing the skin Barely brushing it Once it heals this tone is going to stay the way it looks Fresh and that is why I'm using it that way I I got to see the way this technique feels after four years and I love it. I love the way it heals is a the longevity of it. It looks amazing And I take my time You know because if you if you brush this technique, you're going to be able to see the scratches on the skin, so Just take your time build it The nose is probably one of my favorite parts about doing portraits or any any kind of face Because when it comes on to doing the nose, that's what really gives the face personality And the way I'm going to be doing the nose is using my 13 curved mag And still using nothing but solid black But I want to create really high contrast on this area It's much contrast This this whole thing is going to be almost solid black So that's going to create like an illusion that the sun is hitting from this corner And it's it's just going to look so though You've got to be really gentle with this area Make it dark but not go too dark because you can definitely lose the nose super easy But the more contrast you have the better Day one of tattooing I was able to complete the forearm part of this inner sleeve And I was really happy with the outcome and today I'm going to be finishing up the inner sleeve and wrap it all the way around to finally complete the full sleeve for my client The headdress right here because this is an extra thing. We don't need that I'd rather use it for the ego instead And create those feathers It's your turn on. Oh, there you go That's just wild. That should look sick. Uh, this is our second day on this, uh, inner sleeve Project and today what we're going to be doing is pretty much the inner bicep Yesterday we finished the whole entire forearm, which is I love the way it turned out now I'm going to have to match the techniques that I did on the face the armor on the face On to the headdress and then we added in the mexican eagle On the top we're going to start with that and it's going to be an easy day And what I got to do is the eagle area and my approach is going to be with the third 13 13 curved mag and I'm going to be running at a 5.0 as well So this is the last part of the inner project. So I'm excited to get it done and it's going to be an easy Area but also tough for the client. So it's going to be very important for me to navigate I'm about to start close to the armpit super sensitive area. Take your time. Don't be too Brutal with it. I know it's painful for my client But he is tough Right, tell them tell them that you're tough No, you know anybody that has gotten tattoo on the armpit armpit know this feeling of like feeling helpless Feeling like you can't do anything about it. But just feel the pain if you get through the armpit You can get through anything. I'm about to finish The piece I'm just doing the tricep here, which is uh a little bit of time consuming I left this at the end just so I can kind of finish it up and send them home So he can go rest or go enjoy the rest of the night I like the way everything's turning out and I can't wait to do the chest The inner sleeve is completed now on this day It is the final day with my client and I'm going to be tattooing a whole different part of his body Which is the left peg. I'm excited for it because he's been having this tattoo for a while And he's been wanting that cover-up for so many years So I'm excited to get this done for him and it's the final day. So I'm going to have a lot of fun today Your last day. How do you feel my last day? I miss this place We're gonna make it happen. That'll work. That looks tight bro. That shit looks sick All right, let's go. No fucking around today. No fucking around That's the that's the uh quarter of the day quarter of the day. We're not fucking around today. We're doing business We got a whole bunch of lettering going on So the first thing I'm going to be attacking is under the chin and applying my grays and my solid black That will let me know how bright I can make this piece look and it's going to give me an idea on how to approach the face So now that I'm applying the black I can already see that the lettering underneath is not as strong as I thought so far This this is a good start because the lettering are not showing right through the black I'm applying my gray tones now Skin is it's just taking it in super easy and so far it's covering up easy So still a pretty good sign Once I start doing the beer I'm gonna apply first my solid black With all the little textures and go back with my grays and I think I as in right now I'm very confident that it's not gonna give me any problems But if it does all I gotta do is just change my my contrast and my highlights and adjust a little bit of my details Um, and that's pretty much it this area is super important to be super sharp Because I need that neck to stand out from afar now starting the beer First thing I'm going to be doing is applying my contrast here with all the little details using my 14 mile liner to give me that Hair on the beer kind of look and I'm going to be using what here already has to my advantage Like for example, this little swore right here can be A little curl on the beer Continue that follow it Also use this as well in the opposite direction. I like this right here And I start giving a shape, you know, you don't have to completely follow your reference for me I I don't usually follow my reference a hundred percent I probably use like 30 percent of it and then I go And I do my own thing throughout the whole tattoo because I feel like I can Whatever the picture shows me it won't translate the same on skin So I have to make sure that whatever I tattoo it translates To make it look good on skin not just as a picture I just finished applying my solid black onto the beer With just using black I was able to almost cover up the whole entire thing So all I got to do right now is going to be Applying my medium gray and my light gray with a little bit of white highlights to make the beer pop And that's all that it needs because I'm very surprised on how easy it was to cover up that lettering and I'm just glad that the lettering didn't give me any problems any struggle. It was easy on the lip area There's already some lines going across but it's actually they're actually going vertical So that's going to help me out a lot to give it the illusion That it's the wrinkles of the bottom lip So I might use it to my advantage so that I'm glad that the lip landed where it did It's just those little things when that you place the stencil. You don't really plan ahead. It's just something that happens This area where the stencil landed because it landed right where the cheekbone is supposed to show the features of it So I'm I'm really happy that way that landed as well like That's when you know, you place the stencil on the right spots without even trying So, uh, this is going to help me out to create this as a highlight and The eye is going to be able to identify where the cheek the cheekbone starts Yo, it's pretty much almost gone It's like it disappeared Little the all the lettering that I put right that that he has right there Boom and you can kind of see the lettering coming out right here, but It was crazy. I was I was uh, when I started doing it I'm like, man. It kind of looks complicated. Yeah, but I just went through it like nothing. I went what just happened. I just went through this like Nothing That made me really happy. Everything else is cake I to achieve the texture of the crown here I want to make it look like it's made out of branches like wood So I'm going to be like doing the scribble technique But the difference is that I'm going to be doing kind of like lines going across Random so that way starts creating that effect. I am doing the background of uh I'm doing the background close to the neck One tip that I can give everyone is that on this area Move very slowly. I've seen Artists make the mistake of uh, they're just moving too fast and thinking too fast and doing too much at one time that Sometimes they don't notice the neck is too close to the to the area. So they end up accidentally poking the neck area I mean, obviously if you do that then The client's not going to be happy You might get sued And very slowly just start Take your time on this area. It's definitely a very tricky area. You don't want to accidentally poke the client on the neck Just be patient No rush Right there Almost done with that cover. Oh, we're fucking winning hard Thank you. Thank you All right here. Look it. I think I have a picture over right here Thank you. Thank you Gone That lettering is right here on the beer It makes me um, it makes me feel pretty good. I'm before you know, I never uh, my tattoos, uh, unfortunately they weren't As great as I would have wanted them to be and Didn't want to show them off too too much You really want to be proud of your the work that you have done on your body and And I couldn't really say I was really proud of the ink that I had before But now I have no doubt in my mind that Um, that I'm proud to show them off a matter of fact for the first time I have people always coming up asking me about my tattoos and just compliment me on the on the work that I got done So I'll be I'll be coming I'll be coming back for years to come
