 How's everybody doing welcome back to my channel this week? I'm doing another cover-up, but the concept is gonna be insane So with that being said, let's get this day started. Let's go. I can't believe it. It's cloudy Excited to head to my consultation my client wants a cover-up and it's a start of a horror sleeve Look at the tattoo bro Going After talking to my client we decided to cover up the ego with the homie Jason The reason why is because I'm gonna be using the bottom of that jacket to cover it up The bottom will have so much dark tones that I would use the top of the axe and the mask to create contrast and prevent it from Looking way too dark at the end to the point where it's no longer legible It was so easy to come up with a design. It was not stressful. I didn't have to customize anything It's gonna be an amazing day with nothing but good vibes. We need a song the matches that energy Look at look at this I'm excited. I mean I haven't done this concept in probably three four years Maybe I'm gonna be making adjustments as I tattoo because I do feel like there's some area see the need some Separation right like this corner like this this whole thing needs to be separated with contrast and highlights The mask looks a little too plain for me to be honest with you. So I'm gonna be adding texture to it because Yeah, and it's and it's more and it's more It's missing. It's missing something the main thing here is That it's gonna be so sick my dude Midway of me doing this thing. So I realized that I hated the mask So I had to find a different mask with more contrast more texture and to replace the one that he had My name is Ivan Rodriguez, you know coming from part of the Springs. I was gonna cover up a little ego I had you know one of my friends is getting started tattooing so I thought we could do it But I've always wanted a horse thief just because I've always been into the horror movies We're gonna meet with Kevin. He's gonna be all ready for you And then by the end of today You'll have this taken care of be gone How long do you want me to go on this tattoo? As long as I want I don't know if you know I was about to say I don't know if you know but I'm a damn good ass shaver look at my skills when I when it comes I thought it cool. Look at that. Look at that technique the finesse, bro. You are white. Yeah, I'm what it's My arms a little bit darker for me now in the son of the kid You see this? My mom's super white too. Nobody believe she's Mexican sometimes I don't want to say it looks a little nasty Way hair it looks like I when you pick up like hair from the faucet. Oh, yeah Taking a shower I'm gonna pull your girl. Yeah, you gotta pull out. You gotta pull out your wife's hair. I don't know. Yeah Scrubbing your hand you're like, wait, what's the water to my English? Sabara sabara sabara bigger Not even gonna lie. I think it's a it's a good sense Angel I'm doing good. I'm gonna have you stand up. Let's check out the stencil easy Yeah, that's it right there That is crazy Yeah, you gotta be careful with this one cuz I got nerve damage in my knee from when I was younger So put you there right now. Oh, yeah Probably the teacher is gonna help me out with some texture I'm using a nine-curve Mac with the voltage of a 5.0 so it can allow me to pack in the colors faster and more consistent It would also help me to navigate through my tones a lot more smooth When I started doing the pocket I switched to my 14-round liner because I needed that area to look wrinkly and I use my solid black in my medium Gray and like always I'm using my scribble technique. Drop a comment if you have used a scribble technique before Stretch spicy man I drink like three water bottles back to back so I've been holding on to go into the bathroom for the last 30 minutes I'm doing this for you Brahm only here like my bladder is I waited to explode has he gotten to any part that you felt like oh This is this is this is a little spicy. Yeah, right here back like where the Achilles is intended on top That's where they got Yeah, pretty spicy it but it's worth it though man can't handle yet And I like to book Everybody live in London though in London This gloves gonna be looking fire than a mother fucker this glove I know and I already know I Started doing the glove I started mapping out the shape of the glove because I forgot his tensile that area But I was not worried because I actually freehand or improvising every tattoo I do so I'm pretty much used to this I am mapping everything out with my solid black once. I'm comfortable with seeing the shape of the glove I'm gonna commit and start applying my tones with my medium grace my light grace and my solid black Finishing just seeing half of it done is crazy hold the detail and texture Excited and nervous both yeah, you know just because yes, it was kind of rough, but we'll get through it That's crazy bro, who did that? Who is this guy I Can day what I'm gonna be doing is pretty much Doing the middle starting here on the bottom of this tattoo, but I'm gonna make sure that I that I That I wiped trying to figure out the work. I gotta make sure that I wiped either this way to the sides or that The reason why it is because if I'm if I wipe down I'm gonna get some ink on the bottom part of this tattoo And if I do that it's gonna hurt him whenever I try cleaning the bottom part of it So the number one thing is avoiding putting ink on the bottom part to avoid irritation I'm using the scribble technique to make the ax look deteriorated and old this area is key because there's so much black Already that I need to separate the dark part of the ax from the jacket It is very important that when you're using this technique to be mindful about your contrast and your highlights because if you're not aware of Where everything is there might be a chance where everything's gonna look flat I am so comfortable using my fortune-mild liner that I can create texture so easy and efficient And it also helps my client with the pain I was debating if I should use texture or soft tones for the face But I didn't notice that I had used too much texture throughout so I made the mask Say my soft so he can stand out from everything else Thank you so much for coming back and watching this brand new video. We appreciate you. I Said that thing so fast Thank you so much for coming back and watching this brand new video. I Had so much fun with this project.
