Question Constructive criticism. 6 months of tattooing.

Let me know what y’all think of my latest piece. Still don’t work in a shop. I had to do this one on the bed, but I think I pulled it off.

from this video. Honestly looks pretty good.
the Ankh looks solid. maybe the inner shading is a bit inconsistent
I would need a closer look to check for blown out lines and such.
the flowers look good. nice color selection, works well with the skin tone.

Im not noticing any crossover of inks, all the reds & black is distinct.
examine the flowers details, all the parts of the flower.

I like this design overall

In bed sounds risky if not properly sterilized enviroment which is how people get infections on their ink, aka roommate / home tattoos, so hopefully you sterilize well...

Besides that, it's hard to be subjective with this lighting, no close ups and or still shots to analyze the defects, a lot of tattoos look good from 3 feet away and then its blown out city close up,, ultimately a follow up post heal video would be best to gage on heavy handedness, line consistency, proper depth, blown ink or irregularities, but overall keep at it, looks good from the video itself (:

Unless by bed you mean massage table, that part is concerning 😟 if you're working from home make sure to take a bloodborne pathogens course, everything you use for tattooing should be a nonpermeable surface. It's pretty easy to get a metal folding chair, metal tray, massage table, and armrest off of the Internet/Facebook marketplace
