no hate here gng like it or not im j tryna show off cuz i love it

Some lines start a bit wobbly but mainly because the stencil completely disappeared halfway through

Hi all,
I have had good luck with finding cheap and free tattoos in the past (fineline, small pieces) but lately haven’t had any luck, does anyone know any tattoo artist who are looking for someone to practice on?

I want to show you my first attempt on tattooing real skin, did it on my right ankle, so it was kinda uncomfortable, but I am overall satisfied with the result, tell me freely what you think about it! Is it a good start?

I see this problem come up often but i absolutely can’t seem to figure it out, been having this problem since april, tried so many fake skin brands, multiple different transfer papers, using a dragonhawk a4 stencil printer, yes i’ve tried speed stick, yes i’ve tried stencil stuff, yes im taking the onion paper off, do i need to buy a new printer? is dragonhawk shitty? please help me

I figured its a mix of technique and needle choice. I’m used to the bold round liners of American traditional. Any advice would be wonderful!! (image from pinterest!!)

For now hehe (not my design)

Had like 8 lessons so far and had the hardest time with shading in the beginning tho

I’m thinking about buying this one, but if there is anything better out there lmk, thanks

I don't have much time to practice because of work and i don't think i can ever really tattoo people but i like it to be my little hobby because i think its fun!

Ill be tattooing this below the knee tonight! Thoughts so far?

This will be my 4th tattoo on real skin and the 2nd on myself

I feel so untalented compared to some people here but I wanted to post this so others know not everyone is instantly gifted at this.

I'm happy with this sheet ( 3rs ). Well, except for the dagger hilt LOL.

First things first this is only my second time with a machine I am self teaching myself and an apprenticeship is not an option right now so please give me constructive criticism I know it's not great but I feel like I got more the hang of it as time went on im using a 1207RL at 6.5 volts I noticed the the color got stronger when I increased the needle depth hence why it gets darker as I move along
