Oh my god When I saw his email, I was like Yeah He needs my help He definitely needs my help but first thing is first for the first time in my videos I'm gonna show you guys a little bit of how we book appointments and how it goes down. So let's get this video started First thing is first Hahaha Man that sounds great, bro. You're like an angel in the skies Like you say Let's go I ain't scared Goes back and smells it. Make sure it's fine She has a better digestive system than I do honestly All right, so new client now. Okay new clients Hi there I am looking to get this covered up. This is something that can be done. Also, what are the rates and availability? Is it that okay, there's two nipples Nipples to nipples technically they don't belong to the same person Yeah Hello mysterious, my name is Alejandro and I live in Texas I would like the possibilities to have a booking session done with you. I would like a full right leg Cover up with a galaxy space I got so excited galaxy team with Also looks like you already had like a galaxy thing It's a cover up, huh? It's not a it's not a clean canvas I'll take it. Yeah But did the fox thing go all the way the fox It was it was it a fox? I thought it was a wolf It's a wolf All right, do you have any stories like how you got this tattoo? I want to always want to oh with a crown right my name is Oscar. So let me get a nice oh with a crown So I didn't go to work one day Right. I'm I go I go chill with my boy. We had this house and he was like man My boy he down the street people he fresh out. He been doing tattoos And in the in the jail So then we just go around the right right around the corner and he's there and We go to the backyard And he gets a the little the bristle from the from the thing that you cleaned The grills with to use that as a needle Made the crown and the oh with that So that's why you touch it you can feel it because that's what that's what he used Use that that's what I came from You were bleeding, huh? That's what he used right here He I wanted a I wanted to be different. Let me get a rose With a skull coming out the middle of it, right? So he was like yeah, I can do it So we sit in there in his apartment He was sipping on some some lean So he started he get the paper he put it down he was like that size gonna look I'm like, oh, that's gonna be sick But anyway, but then his daughter come out She was I think she was like Like maybe five no five maybe maybe four or so five She comes as he's tattooing and hops on his shoulders. No As he's tattooing and I'm sitting I'm like, I'm like Yeah, I'm like is that cool he was like don't worry. She does that all the time. Oh, I said, uh, all right, you know what he's doing 15 Oh, so it hasn't been that long ago We're gonna be focusing on the helmet right here my goal is to place the neck area With his whole armor Around the hole with the crown because it is the darkest part I mean this this is very scarred if you guys were to feel his skin You can feel every single line and then luckily the The cross here is not as dark. It is not scarred up at all. So that's good The wings here they're not scarred either Just and then they seem a little faded but not too much Man this tricer bro is like out there Making me work extra Nice nice That's gonna be insane. It is. It's gonna be In particular nothing we're chicken. No, nothing in particular. Oh, nothing in particular How does it feel after a couple years of not getting tattooed? Oh, it's definitely sore. It's definitely sore What do you feel so far like what area has been like it's kind of like a little tricky a little painful I think uh the back part the back area the tricep, huh? Yeah It's your fault you give that one The number one thing about cover ups is that once you're in it like you don't know what obstacles you're gonna come across Because the only way to know how severe or how dark or how scarred tattoo is is by actually doing it And that's what's scary about cover ups because you don't know you don't know and With this one there was a lot of gaps and because there's a lot of open skin you have to be consistent with your tones across the whole entire thing and Obviously it is a cover up So you have to make sure that everything's covered up But also you got to make sure that to not make it look like a cover up make it look like it's a normal tattoo My concern in this piece was the oh because they they were very severe on his skin like you can feel everything But as soon as I started doing it, I realized that because it's been a couple years Even though it's scarred It's it's pretty weak So I was able to just apply darker solid ink and Counter it with some tones around it and I was able to cover it up very easy So I'm very happy about that and now the easy part the cross is gonna be easy Now I see that the oh it's not really that scary anymore Now it's kind of like I got it, you know, but you got to keep in mind that you have to Be ready for whatever Especially with this kind of projects, you know having a lot of open skin A lot of tattoos all over the place Stay consistent my guys sounds like an atom Sounds like I'm promoting something Oh, that's a little tender there I'll run the corner up the back a little back here That tricep was killing you yesterday for sure. Oh, yeah The placement is super though, too It just fits the form This is a good spot to explain What I'm doing Take you guys Through my thought process then that's like a tongue twister Take you guys Through my thought process. So as you can see, there is a lot a lot going on here Star lettering Line the outline of the california state a lot but the one thing that I gotta point out or The one thing I want to explain is that Even though it looks like a mess You can use certain parts of this area use the previous tattoo Towards my advantage or to my advantage How do what is what sounds better to my advantage to my advantage Got to practice So in this case the edge of this star I made it into a whisker I'm just gonna keep going And now I'm gonna kind of curve Dark part of this Area I'm just gonna curb it just a little bit Just so we can take the shape of This corner here of the star because it is Such a straight line that you gotta you gotta erase that there you go I'm using a A 14 mile liner With 5 5.0 voltage and if you're new to My channel I use 5.0 voltage for every tattoo with every Cartridge needle any size Any part of the body no matter never changes. So I'm gonna carry this all the way down here Do the same thing over power that black I'll see this a little opening right here. Make it into a whisker. Why not? and erase that little corner and then There is a straight line right here and I see on my reference that there's like little spots around the The whiskers or around the Mouth area there's a lot of spots. So I'm gonna take advantage of that and I'm gonna do my own thing And on this corner I'm gonna add one solid one here. Here you go add another one here Then do a longer one on this area that was not the same size every time It's not like a straight line of dots here. I'm a Distract the eye by doing one two and a longer one A couple more spots here It's all about distracting the eye From the whole entire shape There you go We're just gonna keep doing the same thing adding my gray tones and making sure that it's not Doesn't look dark I'm gonna make sure to We have to keep in mind the contrast of the whole thing and um Yeah I bet you're I bet you're sore, huh? Yeah, man. You're tired. Look at your eyes. I am tired of being right in my eyes, man You're tired six hours today and then yesterday was Seven 13 hours 13 hours Pain pain pain 13 hours later That's considered torture in some places There you go Kinda Yeah, how does it feel you're not having to stop anyone? Man, I don't even I don't even want to think about that stuff Well, you're gonna have a whole last youtube video What was the most painful part the whole sleep the most painful was It was the back here the tricep and then there were some areas right here It was real tender somewhere right here All right, you made it man. You made it Got my hands swollen your hands are swollen You don't got a wrist anymore. It just goes from forearm to hand like
