Hi eveyone

[Alrethian]

Hey all,

I’m a 36 year old man from antwerp/belgium, i’ve been tattooing a little less than a year now.

I’m what most of the pro’s call a “scratcher” :x

I’ve been drawing my entire life and since i was young i always was facinated by tattoo’s. i’ve even drawn tattoo’s on my toy’s with a marker when i was a little kid :D

I’ve tried endlessly to get a apprenticeship to no avail.
I’ve then said **** it and went to the tattoo school in antwerp and learned the basics and bought all the equipment and after my “education”practiced on friends and my wife.

I’m definitly not the worlds greatest tatto artist, but i’m definitly not bad either.

I am constantly practicing on fakeskin (can’t keep on doing friends and my wife, eventually they run out of space :lol: )

So i got it down for the most part.

I’ve got all the licences i need to start my business but i still want to learn from a “real” pro.

sorry for the loooong introduction, just wanted to get this out.

so in concluding…

Hi all ;)

Welcome, and don’t over rate the “pros”
Ceaser the Hun is a admited completely self-taught “pro” and imo one of the absolute best black and grey realism artists around and now the “pros” are taking tips from him! Funny how that works in this business..LOL>…
