Artist's Comments

This is a piece of flash I think. A pic of the healed tattoo (that I hardly ever get..) This shows my struggles with blending the shading. I'm watering down the ink and even dipping in water, but its not coming out smooth. This is from quite a few months back, but I still struggle with shading.

Maybe someone has a pointer for me.

Its funny how DA flash goes round and round, lol

not bad line work....here's a tip for shading.... You want to run your machine faster for shading, and use quick strokes, not going over an area more than 4 or 5 times (you risk chewing up the skin too much) ....also, try thinning your ink with alcohol (just a few drops) or with a mix of greensoap tincture and water...it makes the consistency of the ink more uniform and less wash (like watery)
