 How's everybody doing welcome back to my channel this week my client is coming in to get a cover up done He has a dragon that looks like a snake on his left upper arm with a few stars on the shoulder area And it is my pleasure to do this cover up for him. So with that being said, let's get this day started Let's go That's a helicopter I'm going to put a good song Los Kangris Damn, yo no soy tu marido soy tu marido ni tampoco tu hombre solamente el cal gris que cuando tú llamas te responde ni tampoco tu hombre Tell me how you got this tattoo Okay, so I got the tattoo the dragon it was supposed to be a dragon. I mean I was 18 young dumb and stupid So I asked the homie The homie came through for 20 bucks I Get there puts the stencil on and he does tell me he has to go to a party doesn't tell me what time he just like Hey, I gotta go to a party He's like look, I know it booked you bro, but I got plants. Yeah, well I'm not thinking he's gonna rush through this and then His old lady starts nagging. I'm like don't even do it cuz we got to go to the baby shower Just tell him to come back and all this happening in front of me And I'm like, are you kidding me? So he tells her, you know what just give me 20 minutes. Give me 20 minutes So this mother does this in 20 minutes And then he tells me hey, bro, like I'll just finish the stencil and I'll get you back next week that next week never happened I'm glad And the stars came after the or this was before the stars were Literally like maybe three weeks before Yeah, so with the same homie same All right, so this is the project that we're gonna be working on today We got the dragon we got the stars where I want to place the stencil is I want to make sure the The end or the face here the cheek area the eyebrow the end of the beard here lands Right before the stars so I can use the background to cover up the stars because if this lands on the face It's not gonna be possible for me to cover up the stars with the end of the face because this side here is my contrast I mean my highlight area That's a good stencil. Let's go All right, check out the place to make sure you like it Yep Quick little update I did not record the other side of the face because it was very hard to position my camera. I'm using a 14-round liner With the voltage of a 5.0 and I just dipped it into my medium gray so I can start creating that effect as it gets closer to the eyelid to make it look like a There's an eyelid And on my reference it is not that dark It is on this area here. It is very light So what I'm gonna do is make it a little bit darker because I want more contrast in it I'm gonna make sure that it's vibrant and legible And I'm gonna leave a tiny little negative space here as before The face ends here so right it right before this area. I'm gonna leave that negative space and Once I'm adding white highlights I'm gonna do a very bright line right there and it's gonna stand out like crazy And that is gonna separate the hair and the and the eye socket. There you go That's the way I was looking for the eye socket later on. I'm gonna do white highlights right here To make the eye look glossy or at least the bottom eyelid Here we go now that I have I'm gonna grab my medium gray I'm gonna mix my medium gray with my lightest gray And I'm gonna start tackling this little corner here. It is to be very sharp So I can make sure that the beer stands out Since I don't have anything to cover up on that area. I'm actually gonna switch to my 11-curve mask and I'm gonna brush it And I'm gonna give it a different look that way it stands out I'm gonna take advantage of the fact that I have nothing here to cover up So start brushing it and it's gonna look like the face is glowing so kind of like mixing a little bit of a gray wash and gray tones With this shading it looks very square. So the way I'm gonna smooth it out is just get that little corner And just lightly fade it out So it won't look too brutal And it looks has a little bit more of a curve To it. There you go Just enough Thank you guys for coming back and watching this brand new video. I really appreciate you this project was definitely fun I had a lot of fun throughout the whole process You know having to go from color transitioning into gray and on top of that it was a cover up So I definitely challenged myself on this one in other news I am excited to announce that I'm gonna have my own website I am grateful and I'm I feel so blessed the fact that a lot of you want to book with me and I got too many emails to the point where my inbox got full and I couldn't receive any more emails So definitely got a little bit complicated to book appointments through that website You guys are gonna be able to book appointments and if you're an artist and you guys want to attend to my seminar There's gonna be an option there to reserve your seat.
