Motivated to Learn Everything
Hey guys!
I recently have started to follow my dreams with tattooing and bought myself a gun. My goal is to find an apprenticeship but San Francisco is no easy place. So as of right now i'm trying to learn everything i can from online resources and diving into it myself. Although i know "DIY tattooing" is looked down on i feel like if you want something bad enough you just have to go for it. As of right now, i'm lost on how to tune, shade and color. i would love video tutorials, but they are few and far between. I would love some advice and some reference websites if you have any knowledge to lay down, i'm totally open for it.
I've done two tattoo's on myself so far and the line work looks good. But i have no idea what the proper needles to use are and i'm starting to go crazy!! Please share the love guys.
here's my deviant art showing off some drawings of mine and the tattoo's i've done.
I'm starting to draw flash for practice, but that's all the work i've really done so far.
Much love,
Sativa
