colour work

Posted by tat_man on 06.14.11uk

Hi, I have been tasting for around 5 years now and have my own studio, just bought a stigma hyper and its wicked for all jobs. I am mainly a black and grey artist but I am moving into colour realism, I am wanting to know the best way to put for colour application with blending etc? Usually I run it at a normal depth, I use fusion colours and 11 mag 00 textured needles. Am I best of running the machine at a fast speed and a shorter depth or a slightly longer depth and plough it in?, I simply want better blending results like mikes and a quicker healing time..... love your work mate. Cheers

Stop using textured needles, use bugpins. Don't "plough" anything in, only gonna cause trauma and skin damage. Over lap and mix colors. Use water like a wash even. Figure out what works best forthe way you tat. Same approach as black and grey with full saturation, same machines, same setup. Practice makes perfect ... Got 2 legs to work with. nobody said it was easy, but you'll get it. Read more of the past forum entries.
