Helmutt Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 whats the scar from?Think it may just be some inflammation from the fresh colorwork, its typical to get some mild swelling and irritation the first couple days after tattooing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmutt Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Here's a start to my first tat... Finishing color on Tuesday.. About 2.5hrs in it with an hour or so to goWas this a newer artist? 2-1/2hrs and that size of piece should've been done, shading, color, etc. Looks like he may have used too small of a needle group ( 3 or 5 round ) and the solid black sections could have used a bigger 7 or 9 mag to pack more color.The different angles here and there show a lack of a consistent perspective and linework is a little shaky in places too. Sorry man, I'm not intentionally nut punching your new tat or negatively picking his work apart.....but these things are what stand out to me and I'm just seeing where improvements needed on the artists work.If you dig it, THAT'S what matters most.....your body, your wallet. But this does appear to be semi-beginner skills, imo. I like the idea, and the overall concept - just lacks application, personally speaking. He could make it a much better piece once he shades/colors it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 It's already shaded and colored.. See above post Like I said, I'm happy with it.. That's all that matters to me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hate all you want, but im happy with itIt is better after color and shading, seems more complete now. What other plans do you have for around this? You said it was the beginning.....now you're hooked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Not sure yet.. With getting ready to move soon, this is all I can afford for now.. Plus, I am so indecisive about things.. It takes me awhile to come up with something I like and will be happy with.. Any time I get a tat idea, I wait a few months instead of doing it right away.. That's why this is my first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
