THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT ON THIS VIDEO! FOR THE SERIOUS ARTISTS! LEARN THE BEST TECHNIQUES FOR BEGINNERS, INTERMEDIATE AND ADVANACED ARTISTS! WITH MY NEW AVAILABLE COURSES NOW LIVE AT: www.tattoocoaching.com 🙏🏼🖤
I've been tattooing for years. Really i believe your videos are very well put together. Very informative, and the fact that you show the techniques as you explain them is probably very helpful to those watching. It's very relieving to see someone make these videos with others in mind. Most artists are very secretive and rude about showing people things. Even through my apprenticeship I myself honestly never gained any true knowledge or understanding of the right ways to do things. Mostly learned by observing others, and trial and error. So i very much appreciate you dedicating your time to help those with the same interest!!!
I watch your videos with my morning coffee on the daily. You are so incredibly talented and informative. I’ve worked in shops for years prior to opening my own and it’s mind blowing how secretive tattoo artists are! You have created such a positive platform for us tattoo artists working towards perfecting our craft, I appreciate you so much! ⚡️🤍
Honestly had no idea you could shade on skin pretty much how you do on paper.. I thought it was all circles. Thanks for the enlightening tips. This opens up a whole world of tattooing for me! Maybe the best tutorial Ive seen really
Most informative tattoo videos I’ve seen to date. These are similar techniques to what I learned in the pen. Came home 8 years ago and never fully adjusted to coils. Tatted all over the world, including England, btwn RAF Lakenheath and Mildenhall. After watching your vids, I junked the coils and went back to my roots. Feels just like old times. No longer trippin over my gradients or stressing over portraits. Keep doin the damn thang homie. So many artists are stuck up and stingy w information. Your contributions are greatly appreciated. Your craftsmanship is superb.👌
Really impressed with the tips . I’ve been tattooing for a while, but never had a proper tutorial. But your videos teach a lot just like learning from school . 🙂 Thank you Oliver.
Nice work and great video! at about 8:50 you mentioned using a liner with quick motions for stipple-type shading instead of using mags. I think that's a great idea for smaller areas and I'd take that up one notch by suggesting what I do, which is use a 9RS for that. It works great and helps to keep hamburgering to a minimum. Love your work!
did anybody watch whole video, you guys asking him a stupid question,he explaine everyting from voltage for stppling to stroke. watch then ask. Thank yoU OLIVER
Thanks for this video, I've been looking at this style of shading for a while and I really want to change to it completely rather than mags. This was super informative and I'm on it tomorrow !!! 😎
I’ve learned a lot from your video sir, now I’m stoked to tattoo someone with lighter skin. I’ll better try this awesome techniques and knowledge you teach great clip anyway
That slowmo effect your camera is making is caused by a combination of a fast shutter speed and the frame rate, if you slow down the shutter speed it will give the motion blur effect that our eyes see and make the video look real
thank you so much for this amazing video the question that I have is I have been a scratcher quote for the last three years and I've never done any on real skin fake skin the foam but I've been practicing for 3 years and it doesn't seem like I'm getting any better it seems like I'm stuck please help any kind of advice would help and you have an amazing voice. Thank you.
Oliver first off thank I for pouring into us all your patience and and skills I appreciate u 💯Bless u... quick question what speed was ur power supply set on for that shadeing
Hi this is Carrie again I just left you a question but I've been watching videos and practicing and practicing for the last three years this is the first time I ever seen what this technique that you're doing right now is this the first time I seen it so last night after watching this video I went upstairs in my tattoo studio which makes me mad to unbelievable terms that a prisoner can do this tattooing with a staple pee water should from a pencil and a deck of playing cards I have a whole studio a whole complete Studio inside my house I have three different kinds of rotary five to six different kinds of eight coils I have about 10 to 15 different kinds of 10 coil machines but after watching your video last night my artwork has improved tenfold thank you so much I didn't think that you could shade with a smaller needle like that I've been using a 7 flat 13 flat or a 15 flat trying to get my shading so much smoother I ain't going to use them no more I'm going to use your Technique and thank you so much I appreciate it. so I answered my own damn question thank you.
Hey great video, nice to see someone in the UK Stippling, did you say your needle depth voltage and stroke is the same for stippling as when you line please? I whip and dotwork but I'd love to add stippling to my portfolio, respect 👍
Woow I feel so dumb 😅😂🤦 I've always been trying to do this type of shade work with a mag but it's so much harder^^ can't wait for my next client 💉✌🏾🙏🏾 Thanks soooo much for this tip 🙏🏾💯💪 you're amazing 😎🙏🏾💯
Me personally I take distilled water for safety and cleanness and run the needle through the water until all the ink is gone and dip or use different needles which ever is better for you.
Hey Oliver thanks for taking the time to share this information Question : Do you change the voltage on the machine when switching from lines to stippling shade ?
Thank You so much Oliver for that videos! You are awesome! I have a few questions: How do you clean the needle so there isn't any water? What to do when cartridge splashes? Do you use always same voltage for lining and shading? or you change it? Do you change voltage when you use other colors? Do you use dettol to reflect the pattern? I've heard some tatuators put their elbows on their knees to gain better stability, Do you think it's a good idea? What do you use for the pattern so it won't go down? Thank you so much again!
Looks amazing!Thank you for all the tips you sharing with us. I am a beginner tattoist and would like to know what you use during the tatto to wash it with..is it like some sort of cleaning solution ?
I probably should start paying you mentoring fee's 😂 I knew about tattooing a little when I got my machines but your videos are so helpful and in depth! Anyone that I've spoke to about techniques and set-ups is very much held to their chest which is irritating but I get it! Keep making these vids man! You're a boss 👍👍👍👍
Hey Oliver, thank you so much for all the videos, I watch them every day. It is very helpful, but I have one question and if you can answer me it would be great, if you have time of course, So I am a beginner, and sometimes (not all the time) when I do tattoos ( line or something black ) there are not black and bold enough. It falls off when it heals. I told my friends to come back for corection, but I want to be better. is it hand speed or smth, that I should work on more?
Hope all is well...big fan of your work...when your stippling in a light area and dark area, can you go over it with a mag without overworking the skin?
Reigan Farber Make sure you use alcohol before you apply. Use A1 transfer gel. And the transfer machines work better with sticking on skin, rather than making them manually with your hand.
@@diornde9704 okay thank you! I usually use stencil stuff for application and I already use a thermal printer the lines are always much more vibrant and less work to try and make a stencil
I was always told best to shade with round shaders on small parts like the gun details part you done. Nice work though i struggle with smooth shading is it all to do with hand motions and practice? I can do it no problem with pencil. I use curved mags and the right technique. I must just need to practice more.
hifi 88 yeah man, I used to use round shaders when I first started but just always found myself chewing skin up while trying to cover the area I was in
@@OLIVERAYRE Cheers yeah and machine to hand speed has to match. Been using the cheyenne pen at about 7.5 to 8.0 because my hand speed ain't as fast yet. I reckon it's all practice though I don't tattoo enough as need more clients currently. I think the Chewing up with round shaders must be needing to move hand faster but I know everyone has there own way.
When it comes to switching needle sizes during a tattoo how do you go about it? Do you use the same gun and just switch the tube and needle ? Sorry if my question is not so clear.
The tubes he uses are for cartridges. Switching needle is as easy as changing the tip on the grip they twist right off and you can twist another one in. It doesnt have a single bar running from the needles to the machine like traditional needles. Look it up pretty nice bit of technology for the industry.
Great info on techniques which is the style going on seems Eastern European and didn’t think to use different shades in stilpling shading but on other pieces that look like you actually have to staple dot by dot ?Have you ever used the actual dot by dot technique before ?
It seems like no matter what technique I use, or how much volts I use, or whether I use round or magnum shaders I still need to go over the area about 20 times or more in order to get a full dark shade. I'm using Dragonhawk two coil shadding and colour packing machines with Starbright Ink. I've seen so many professional and even beginner artist get a full dark shade with much less. Do you know what I might be doing wrong, or have any ideas that might help me?.
Thanks for this! Question. When you’re doing the stippling, how much needle is going into the skin? Is it the same as if you were lining? I’m having trouble registering solid looking dots.
Hey brother good video and information. Could you share what type of machine you use and i caught the needles just not the ink you use. Maybe where you get them as well if its not a huge hassle.
I've been wanting to tat myself for far too long, I'm itching...I love your videos...I'm doing it. I only want my art, I want it done my way. I have been hunting for machines, honestly I really want no wires, no petals, a pen, is this a big no no?
What if you start from the top and wipe going up so it doesn't mess the stencil up?.I'm still new and early in the game but been liking starting from the top lol
What’s it matter it’s about how much pressure you apply at the end of the day it could stick out 20mm or 5mm only difference is it wouldn’t be supported meaning shaky if it’s out further from the tube
Can i ask..I thought needle should stick out only about 2mm. I'm trying to teach myself by watching videos like yours. I'm from East Midlands derby so I know a pound coin is way more than 2mm I'm only asking cuz I'm hungry for knowledge many thanks.
Ryan H hey man, my voltage is between 10-12 volts but it will vary from machine to machine, depends what the motor inside the machine is rated at, and 5rl bugpin, so more like a 3rl
at 7:20 or so where you can see the skin throbbing looks so weird since its not capturing all of the movement due to frames and such. im not grossed out by gore and stuff usually, but for some reason the skin moving like that gives me the queezies.

Hello Oliver,Which stroke you use for stippling?
wow...thank you for sharing the knowledge...
thank you so much for this amazing video the question that I have is I have been a scratcher quote for the last three years and I've never done any on real skin fake skin the foam but I've been practicing for 3 years and it doesn't seem like I'm getting any better it seems like I'm stuck please help any kind of advice would help and you have an amazing voice.

Awesome video bro ive been using this technique and the results are amazing thanks for all u do bro your really appreciated i know i learn alot
Oliver first off thank I for pouring into us all your patience and and skills I appreciate u 💯Bless u... quick question what speed was ur power supply set on for that shadeing
Really love the explanation - lot better than the others here. + your voice/speed is amazing for narration!
Again thank you for all this informations. It's really clear and very interesting.
Hello brother, do you run on a lower voltage, when you stappling shading, while using the RL ,or is the same as you doing the lanes.
slow down the voltage or increase hand speed. both would result the same
Hi this is Carrie again I just left you a question but I've been watching videos and practicing and practicing for the last three years this is the first time I ever seen what this technique that you're doing right now is this the first time I seen it so last night after watching this video I went upstairs in my tattoo studio which makes me mad to unbelievable terms that a prisoner can do this tattooing with a staple pee water should from a pencil and a deck of playing cards I have a whole studio a whole complete Studio inside my house I have three different kinds of rotary five to six different kinds of eight coils I have about 10 to 15 different kinds of 10 coil machines but after watching your video last night my artwork has improved tenfold thank you so much I didn't think that you could shade with a smaller needle like that I've been using a 7 flat 13 flat or a 15 flat trying to get my shading so much smoother I ain't going to use them no more I'm going to use your Technique and thank you so much I appreciate it. so I answered my own damn question thank you.

Great work very informal

I always run to your channel bro every time i need to know or learn something new keep up the good work bro support your works and channel
Woow I feel so dumb 😅😂🤦 I've always been trying to do this type of shade work with a mag but it's so much harder^^ can't wait for my next client 💉✌🏾🙏🏾 Thanks soooo much for this tip 🙏🏾💯💪 you're amazing 😎🙏🏾💯
What do you use now
Great technique an very well explained!Thank you very much,Oliver!
How do you clean up the ink from the needle, to dip into a lighter shade?
You just have a cup of water?
Me personally I take distilled water for safety and cleanness and run the needle through the water until all the ink is gone and dip or use different needles which ever is better for you.
What voltage you run your machine ? Are you going in lighter then lining for this technique?
Thanks man love the videos.
Hi Oliver absolutely eternally grateful for your videos and sharing your secrets
What needle do you use for packing when you're not shading? 🙏✨
Love yr videos bro!!! Please keep them coming i look forward to each one....id like to see a longer video on black and grey....
So very interesting, at 8:44 you suggest not using Mags if you really don’t have to. Is there ever a time you do choose to Magnums ?
thank you so much oliver, tought me alot.
The camera thing is called the shutter effect. It's kinda like the wagon wheels on old Westerns looking like they're going backwards.
Hey Oliver thanks for taking the time to share this information
Question : Do you change the voltage on the machine when switching from lines to stippling shade ?
Did you post a video on how to rinse your tip for colors?
Thank You so much Oliver for that videos! You are awesome!
I have a few questions:
How do you clean the needle so there isn't any water?
What to do when cartridge splashes?
Do you use always same voltage for lining and shading? or you change it? Do you change voltage when you use other colors?
Do you use dettol to reflect the pattern?
I've heard some tatuators put their elbows on their knees to gain better stability, Do you think it's a good idea?
What do you use for the pattern so it won't go down?
Thank you so much again!
Very smooth and unstressed Work for skin👍
Looks amazing!Thank you for all the tips you sharing with us.
I am a beginner tattoist and would like to know what you use during the tatto to wash it with..is it like some sort of cleaning solution ?
Great tutorials everything explained right to the point god bless brother and thanks for sharing your knowledge you got a subscriber 🤝
Valentina Ramos thanks Valentina! If there’s anything you want me to make a video on. Let me know
Thank you so much. I learn a lot with you. Merci 👍🤜🤛
❤️❤️❤️ best teacher on UA-cam
Such an informative video thank u so much!

Anyone that I've spoke to about techniques and set-ups is very much held to their chest which is irritating but I get it! Keep making these vids man! You're a boss 👍👍👍👍
you have such soft shading, if you had a consistent light source, your tattoo's would be amazing!
Solid information. Appreciate everything bro.
Hey Oliver, thank you so much for all the videos, I watch them every day. It is very helpful, but I have one question and if you can answer me it would be great, if you have time of course,

Hope all is well...big fan of your work...when your stippling in a light area and dark area, can you go over it with a mag without overworking the skin?
I'm getting some dark and lighter dots when doing the method any tips of how to improve whether it be hand movement, voltage?
You dont get ink pooling when lining can you explain why you dont get pooling on your first insertion thanks
Hi Oliver, is it up and down strokes you use or just one way strokes , thanks for your amazing videos
Do you maintain the same stretch for this? The same as you would lining? Great video
This is very helpful🔥🔥. Thankyou Sir!!
Hey great videos man, can I ask if you lower the vaults when you stipple or keep them the same as when you line? Regards
what are you using to keep your stencil down? it's so vibrant and sticks crazy good!!!
Reigan Farber Make sure you use alcohol before you apply. Use A1 transfer gel. And the transfer machines work better with sticking on skin, rather than making them manually with your hand.
@@diornde9704 okay thank you! I usually use stencil stuff for application and I already use a thermal printer the lines are always much more vibrant and less work to try and make a stencil
Hello brother,
Nice video btw!
What about is you stappling using a curve magnum it is less damage on the skin???
What is the needle size on the rose when you shade ? Rs5? Or RL5
I was always told best to shade with round shaders on small parts like the gun details part you done. Nice work though i struggle with smooth shading is it all to do with hand motions and practice?

xlizzieduu yes man! I use the same machine, but there’s no stopping you using more :)
The tubes he uses are for cartridges. Switching needle is as easy as changing the tip on the grip they twist right off and you can twist another one in. It doesnt have a single bar running from the needles to the machine like traditional needles. Look it up pretty nice bit of technology for the industry.
Awesome thanks guys!!
you mean a semi automatic tattoo rifle?
Can you please tell me what stroke ur machine is running for this tattoo you said 9 to 10 volts but what stroke ?🙏🙏🙏

Do you use a greywash when stippling or just stack dots with pure black?
Thanks for this!
Question. When you’re doing the stippling, how much needle is going into the skin? Is it the same as if you were lining? I’m having trouble registering solid looking dots.
thank you so much! its very useful for me ,and i want ask how much power dose the power supply have to drive when you shading like that?
do you keep the same intensity for stippling than for linning ? (10 or 12v)
Hey brother good video and information. Could you share what type of machine you use and i caught the needles just not the ink you use. Maybe where you get them as well if its not a huge hassle.
James Paul hey man in my other videos I have all those details :) thanks for the support bro! 🙏🏽
@@OLIVERAYRE anytime thank you . mad love from Albuquerque New Mexico
great work ... i got a question about the grip, what wrapped around it?
Badong Ardez hey man! Thanks for your comment, the black stuff wrapped around my grip is disposable grip tape
You should do a video on how to rinse your needle out tbh I struggle with it lol
I've been wanting to tat myself for far too long, I'm itching...I love your videos...I'm doing it. I only want my art, I want it done my way. I have been hunting for machines, honestly I really want no wires, no petals, a pen, is this a big no no?
Great video. I just discovered your page and I am going to subscribe now
Awesome stuff! Subbed!
What if you start from the top and wipe going up so it doesn't mess the stencil up?.I'm still new and early in the game but been liking starting from the top lol
What neddle you recoment
I used a 3rl but thinking tryn bigger sixe
Voltage information ? Unless I missed that part. Thanks mate.
Love it!
huge thanks bro!!!!!
Amazing video 👌🏻 but definitely had to speed your voice up lol learnt a lot from this
Rad, thanks dude.
In terms of millimeters, how would you say hangs out from your cartridge ? Great video
khouri Edwards thanks for the question! Errrrm maybe like 5mm?
What’s it matter it’s about how much pressure you apply at the end of the day it could stick out 20mm or 5mm only difference is it wouldn’t be supported meaning shaky if it’s out further from the tube
I think that’s what there saying Oliver because how far you put it out doesn’t matter to you only the support and you don’t bog down to the tube?
where can i shop all the supplies and material needed , can you do a video of what equipment needed for tattooing , i'll be grateful
Oliver what voltage do you used in that lines? And tanks for share your art, sorry for my english
Hi Oliver, how deep you go with the liner when you shading ? The same as when you're lining but moving the hand faster? Thank you
Cristian Ionut Cisma I just touch the skin, lightly
My mentor just taught me a lot of the same things you said lol
Can i ask..I thought needle should stick out only about 2mm. I'm trying to teach myself by watching videos like yours. I'm from East Midlands derby so I know a pound coin is way more than 2mm I'm only asking cuz I'm hungry for knowledge many thanks.
New to tattooing , so do you actually prefer to use a grey washing kit ? Or do you just use one shading ink ?
do you still use the same voltage when strippling
Maybe I missed it, but what voltage are you using to shade and what is the easiest needle for it? 5RL?
Ryan H hey man, my voltage is between 10-12 volts but it will vary from machine to machine, depends what the motor inside the machine is rated at, and 5rl bugpin, so more like a 3rl
@@OLIVERAYRE does it have to be bugpin?
Dude thank you!
tks for your video but can you put engsub ??
at 7:20 or so where you can see the skin throbbing looks so weird since its not capturing all of the movement due to frames and such. im not grossed out by gore and stuff usually, but for some reason the skin moving like that gives me the queezies.
what would be the best tattoo equipment for a beginner to purchase
