 Testing testing Testing how's everybody doing welcome back to my channel this week. I'm gonna keep it nice and simple I'm gonna be explaining how my tattoos healed and the setup that I used to record my videos a first question is How my tattoos are gonna healed and the best way that I can answer that is the way I tattooed personally I am not gonna be talking for other artists or that way they tattoo is just my own setup is what I like using is Solid black ink and True grays, which I just mix white and black I don't dilute anything and I the way I tattoo is I just pack everything and I'm gonna And I think the best way that I can explain this question is The way I'm gonna put it to perspective a lot of my clients that come in to get a cover up done They got a tattoo done by their homie. You know, they just come in and they say hey I got this done with the homie. He didn't have experience He just wanted to practice and I just got this done because I was already there And they come in 10 to 20 years later to get that covered up and that tattoo looks solid Black the lines are still there nothing faded the tribals I was 17 I was still in high school and one of my buddies had a He told me he had an uncle that got a tattoo machine that he was doing free tattoos one of his friends Came out of jail and he had some nice work done on him, but somehow he burnt your my chest You see it's a lot of stupid stuff, right? And it goes all the way up to like right here Oh, I got this one. I was like 39 38. I got this one. I was like 18 17 years 20 years Now imagine what an artist can do that has a lot of experience in applying tattoos that tattoo I promise you it's not going anywhere because the way they know their setup. They know how to apply the tattoo They know their handspeed needle depth Although those little things matter the best advice that I can give you is that if you're thinking about getting a tattoo Make sure to check out the artist he'll work and if you see they're working person even better Question number two is the setup that I used to record my videos and take pictures First of all when it comes down to an iPhone, there's so advanced that you can do everything That you do on a camera on an iPhone. I mean they have similar qualities Like an iPhone has 120 120 frames per second. It has 60 frames per second 4k you can do so much in an iPhone But when it comes down to a camera The only reason that I like using that camera better is the fact that I like having options when it comes down to lenses I mean if I wanted to get a micro lens that I wanted to show that needle in action I can get a lens that can do that if I wanted to get a lens that I can be up close But still show me the whole entire picture I can get a 20 millimeter and I feel like having a camera allows me to Control my settings and I just had I just like having those options Comment down below and let me know what you like using better either an iPhone or a camera and tell me your pros and cons about this topic With that being said now I'm gonna compare how my tattoos look with my Canon 90d and an iPhone now with my Canon 90d I use a light that my fiancee gifted me in Christmas Saying the lens that I'm using for this camera is a 20 millimeter with the polarized lens That goes on it at the same size 20 millimeters And I'm gonna compare it to my iPhone that I'm not gonna be using any polarized filters No special lighting just the camera's phone the phone's camera The phone's camera. I'm just gonna be using the phone's camera I have seen a couple comments on my videos saying that That because I use a special set of with special lighting and polarized filters And that my tattoos look different than what they look like in person, which I understand that concern Nowadays we have so many applications or apps that allow us to alter the the pictures and videos And yeah, I mean it's becoming a concern in the industry because now some people doubt that a tattoo looks the way It looks and it definitely hurts all their artists that put a lot of effort into their tattoos and for somebody to question their Their work is that it definitely hurts, you know So definitely I feel like this topic is really important to address. So yeah, let's get to it Okay, so here what I'm using is my Canon 90d with a polarized lens And as you can see This tattoo healed up the way I wanted it to I use true blacks and true grays So basically what the polarized filter does it deflects the light from the middle of the tattoo to none So basically the the whole purpose of it is for it to just show the skin or the tattoo Nothing special about it. So here I'm gonna Turn it and you see that there's a glare in the middle of the tattoo Which definitely affects the way the tattoo looks now because in the middle all you see is just a white glare you see that So all it does a It deflects the light so as soon as you turn it you see that So now there's no glare in the middle now. You're able to see every detail all the white highlights are still are you hungry now? I can I can hear your stomach So This is already what maybe like almost a month healed the bottom of it and if you've seen this video comment down below let me know what you think about this video all freehand and The top here we have the chimpanzee that we did at the body our expo if you haven't checked out the video check it out It's really cool like very informative So yeah, this is already two months healed and it's Perfect. I mean the black still there's solid, you know, there's not much I can say So now I'm just gonna record a couple shots making it look cool with some with some intense music So it can look more entertaining ready So now I'm gonna start recording with my iPhone and show you guys the way my tattoos look on my iPhone nothing special just my Just the camera's phone or the phone's camera. Oh my god The phone's camera, so here it is and record dang. All right, here you go So switch over to my iPhone. So this is the way it looks See that the blacks are still there. There's a little bit of glare in the middle not too much But yeah, I mean you can tell that Solid nice But yeah But yeah, I mean other than that, I feel like it's it's very important to talk about this topic because there's a lot of There's a lot of tricks and softwares out there at this time where you're able to you know Adjust the videos and alter the pictures and it gives a false perception of How tattoos supposed to look it was very important for me to talk about this topic because I Put a lot of effort into my tattoos and I wouldn't want anybody to down my work and the way it looks in person Like it did not nothing faded Solid blacks are still there. The true grays are still there.
