lettering tattoo



THIS IS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT LETTERING AND IT CAME OUT REALLY WELL , DECIDED TO USE A 5 LINER AND GOT A MUCH BETTER LINE THAN USING A 3 IT SEEMS TO BE MUCH HARDER WITH A REALLY SMALL NEEDLE SOMETIMES LINES CAN BE A LITTLE WIGGLY BUT WITH THE 5 PERFECT.

ALSO USED TALENS BLACK INK WHICH IS A PRETTY GOOD BLACK, IT CAN ALSO BE THINNED DOWN TO MAKE SHADING INK.

SOMETHING ELSE THAT I HAVE REALLY FOUND USEFULL IS DIAMOND TIPS THEY ARE BRILLIANT THE INK FLOWS SO MUCH BETTER WITH THEM AND YOU HAVE A MUCH BETTER VIEW OF WHERE THE NEEDLE IS GOING.

latest tattoo




Started as a shamrock then kept adding to it, the celtic fish was put around the top,done the fish using a 3 tight liner because it had such fine detailed lines.
