Does anyone here own a Tattoo gun or have a tattoo? Im somewhat surprised I hardly see mention of tattooing considering how majority on here see themselves as struggling artists when the tattoo industry is growing huge and a lot of money can be made from it.

Or, you know, we're not retarded sheep who ruin our skin with blotches of ink just because it's trendy.

>sketch has solid structure
>tattoo is a wobbly mess
How? I thought they just print out the sketch on that indigo-like shit and paste it on the skin, and then ink over it. How can you fuck that up so bad?

>>2697785
Got one. Will have more. But posting will induce way too much of a shitstorm. Also surprised there are no tattoo artists around here

I built a machine years ago. the people who know how to do ut well ALL learned in a shop as some sort of apprentice. As such, they don't just make tutorials or whatever so fucktards don't go fucking up their friends. Fucktards still do, but a lot less of them than would if there were a youtube tutorial or whatever on tattooing. You can give people aids, tetanus, etc if you dunno what you're doing.

The tattoo industry is self regulated and they all want it to stay that way, so they're super xenophobic.

>aids, tetanus, etc

all people that are ok with getting dirty needles in them deserve what they get.

Choose one.
I have yet to see an artist that can draw well. Sure they can do neat lines, trendy tribal stuff, but that's about it.

Daily reminder that tattoos are scientifically linked to low intelligence.

then you're not looking. there are tons of talented tattoo artists. why wouldn't there be? the demand is there, so artists will meet it.

I live in a mid-sized city and we still have awesome tattoo artists (pic related).

waste of skin

everything else is alright. a strong reminder to all artist looking to get into tattooing, all you actually need to know how to do is render

>>2697773
Wtf is up with that belly button?

>>2698396
neat I need something to take me down a peg. hook me up with the study senpai

tattoos are bullshit fampai.

>>2698585
That's fucking retarded. The vast majority of tattoos are super simplistic and rely on basically all art fundamentals but rendering.

If something correlates it means it is unto the percipient to measure the material. Causation is the material originating unto the percipient.
