I can’t stress how helpful
Your videos are because you are not only showing what you are doing but also explaining the thought presses and techniques behind what you are doing! I really appreciate what you do! Thanks Dave!🙏poppy
Wow thank you Poppy much appreciated and I’m very glad to hear this type of video is helpful. I just enjoy sharing my experiences and I’m glad others can learn from them. Thanks again my friend 🤘🙏🤘
Definitely going to try this thanks explained very well 👍
My first tattoo on skin was a watercolor style tattoo. I had fun with it.
Oh that’s awesome to hear Kenney and I agree they are really fun to do as long as you relax I think. Thanks again brother appreciate the support🙏🤘🙏
What’s trippy is how you start with lighter colors and then go darker unlike other color tattoos you start with the dark color first. Great tat!
Yeah some pieces I will work light to dark and other I just feel better working light to dark. Glad you like it and thanks for the support Jose!🤘🙏
It’s very beautiful…Ty for sharing your tips❤
On ya Daveo.. another blessing from you . 🍻🤝💯
Just a beautiful piece of art! Loving everything going on in this tattoo. I really enjoy your voice overs, your work is amazing!
Well thank you so much Crystal I’m glad you enjoyed the style of video as I enjoy sharing the process in this style as well🤘🙏
Thank you ! I did a basic line Koi and I’d eventually like to take the watercolour style to it add some bubbles etc and this helped me understand the process a lot more !!
Great content ! You giving out some good good Gems 💎
Awesome job. Looks amazing. Thanks Dave for another great video!! 🇺🇸
Thank you my friend really do appreciate that and for all the support🤘🤘🙏
Great vid with great tips! Thanks much for puttin this out there, helps a lot! 🤙🏻
Thank you Jessica really glad to hear this video can help in someway. And again thank you for your support it’s much appreciated🤘🙏
I like the look. I agree with your statement on the fact that it would be hard t color outside the lines. I’ll have to practice some of that. Thanks for the content. Much love ❤️
Definitely listen to Andy on this one and give it a try as it is a lot of fun and as you get comfortable which doesn’t take very long in my opinion you’ll find going outside the lines is not that bad in a controlled manner. And thank you again contrasted for all the support my friend!🤘🙏
Before I started learning how to tattoo, I was a watercolor/gouache painter. I've been really wanting to try practicing these types of tattoos because I adore watercolor so much. So happy to find a tutorial. 🥰
Oh, and if you happen to see my comment, I also have a non related question. I have 2 small tattoos on my practice leg. One was lined with a 9rl the other used a 13rl. The two tattoos have the same line weight (line thickness?) I'm wondering what I did wrong? Is it a case of the needle not going in deep enough or am I moving my hand too fast?
@@IHaveNoLaifu you either havnt gone deep enough or hand speed to voltage isn't right maybe turn voltage up or slower depending on your hand speed just play about and see what works 😊 eventually your get it iv been self taught on and off last couple years and iv only just got it properly from trial and error hope this helps
@@cindyjames1468 ahh, thank you. 💕 It's more likely than not a case of me not going in deep enough. Although none of my practice tattoos have blown out, needle depth still makes me more cautious than it probably should. When I get around to fixing it, I'll try going in a little deeper.
So happy you said ‘anywhere a drop drop’
Haha I didn’t want to but felt I had to finish the song lol. Thanks for the support Chris🤘
This is really helpful
If you use too much water these tattoos fade too fast. You are better off using a full spectrum color pallet that is full saturation. Make sure to include the tale-tell darker richer tones where paint gathers and dries. I suggest looking for actual watercolor paintings that you like and recreating them, as opposed to imagining what watercolor actually looks like. You will find you are using the inks at full strength, and that you choose a bigger pallet. The look is phenomenal, and causes less stress on the skin. I would be happy to teach anyone the best tricks to have a watercolor tattoo that has staying power.
I'm certainly interested in learning those tips!
@@mikerettig4445 Hi Mike. What more do you want to know?
I'd like to learn those tricks too if your offer still stands :)
How do you get the transparency feel when you use the full saturation?
😢😮😮😢😢😢
looks like a piece you can free your mind doing while listening to some Pink Floyd lol.. Nice work Dave your like the Bob Ross of tattoos 😆 🤣
So very true Danik so very true. Certainly relaxing experience also tattooing like this makes the coloring process much faster as well. Thanks again brother🙏🤘
I appreciate you Dave
It’s like watching a bob ross video, so fun to watch and very informative
lol thank you Kiersten and glad you enjoyed the video, now I just need to grow me some bob Ross hair and I’ll be happy.🤘
Thank you so much for the info bc iv been wanting to try water color but was scared to try it .but you showing me how. made it look more easy .I will be trying it out tonite on fakeskin
I agree you have to loosen up on your strokes. That is key to good blending at any ink strength. But I will argue a full color palette, as opposed to watering down ink will last longer. I have seen tattoos I did fade badly because I used the waterdown technique. Putting water in dark colors is fine, especially in black, but warm tones and pastels will just not have staying power. You are better off mixing a full spectrum palette. Take some time and study watercolor paintings you like. Look at what the artist was doing. It will help you make better decisions about your color palette. Looking at watercolor tattoos will not help you get better at watercolor tattoos. You have to look at an actual painting to understand what is happening with the colors.
Haha great drop song😂 Started the same song in my head, at the same time🤦🏼♂️
Thanks for yet another great video, they help a whole lot🙏🏻 The piece turned out really nice, good job Dave🤘🏻
Thank you Dennis I’m really glad you enjoyed the music as well my friend. But most importantly I’m glad The video could help in someway and thank you so much for the support!🙏🤘
Most things become a bit more enjoyable with a little humor👍🏻🙂
I have been thinking about, how to make a watercolor tattoo, so it was nice to see your take on that🙏🏻
No problem, and thanks for all the time you take, to help out all of us my friend🙏🏻🤘🏻
Awesome work
Thank you my friend much appreciated🤘🙏
Looks good.
Thank you Randy I appreciate that and I appreciate your support🙏🤘
Cute little sleeve with simple stuff like flowers, hearts, paws & nicely chosen colours. How do these water colours do when practicing on fake skin tho & is there anything important to remember? Hope you're having a great week & staying safe! 👍👍
Thank you smoke much appreciated brother. I look forward to getting a look at this in the real world healed and see all the different things I can learn from that as well and share that in another video. This is also just one way to do watercolor you can also do it without watering down your ink and in that way you don’t have to worry about it fading as much. Sadly I have not tried this technique on fake skin but that is a good idea. Thanks again smoke and you stay safe as well my friend!🤘🙏
Bad ass
What about using clinical grade "witch hazel"?
I'm hearing many tattooists prefer using distilled clinical grade witch hazel over distilled water because it greatly reduces skin irritation and redness when making transparent colors or diluted blacks/grey wash!
I got a watercolor once. The artist obviously did not know how to do it! It looks kinda like crayon scribbles. Good job by you! Thank you as always for the informative video.
Well that’s cool to hear you had a watercolor tattoo done at one time. Sorry to hear it didn’t turn out the way you wanted it though. This is only one style of watercolor there are other ways to make watercolor tattoos. But thank you again dark eyes really appreciate all the support you’ve given🤘🙏🤘
@@ArtSomething Yours actually looks like watercolor. And your video makes sense!
Great video
Thank you so much tone really appreciate the support🤘🙏
When it’s fully healed and you could get a picture of would that be something you could flash on the screen in a future video? Looks great man! Keep up learning and great work, and thanks for the lesson my man!
Absolutely my friend I can’t wait to get a photo of this healed so I can share that with everybody and also share what we learn from that heeled photo. You’re very welcome my friend and thank you for all the support🙏🤘
I love your videos!! They’re so informative and I’m so excited to get more into tattooing. I’ve done art on paper and canvas for so love and think ill love tattooing.
Thank you SO much Jams really glad your enjoying the channel! And I wish you all the best as you continue down this awesome journey. Keep your head up and Keep Rocking!🤘🙏
Very cool tattoo and the type of style I’m trying to learn. Im having a hard time practicing this technique on fake skin though, using Reelskin at the moment. For some reason it won’t take white either. Very, very pale. I’ve tried all the dynamic whites but not much luck.
I do know from experience white in Fake skin is a real tricky one. And as far as watercolor in fake skin I have yet to try that so I wish you all the best as you struggle down the journey. And I appreciate all the support Jon🙏🤘
Good to know about the white, I was wondering. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much🎉❤
just one question, is that distilled water👀?
Sweet
🤘🙏🤘
Dave!!! Sorry I been away for a while, it’s been hell in life
Would you run the pen on a lower voltage like when color packing?
Beginner here.. I see your not using Vaseline. Will it make it different? THIS is the technique I want..thank you. Great video
I have this same tat 😂
Do you have to do it this way the technique like brush strokes ? Or can you also do watercolour with the colour blending technique you showed on a separate video where you sort of packed it then whipped it out ?
Yes you can pack color however you want you can pack water down color however you want. If you’re comfortable doing something best to just stick with that. Also this is just one type of watercolor where you truly use water in your color. Another way instead of using water you could use a lighter pink and then where you want it darker use a darker pink to give me a fact of water color.
Can we have that stencil to this tattoo? It would be fun to practice on fake skin
Savage
🤘🙏🤘
@@ArtSomething ill be trying this technique
I don't know where to ask this, so I'll do it here.. I remember you recommending a certain needle cartridge brand.. what was that brand?
I prefer and use CNC police carts, good quality at a decent price. Also I have a link in description of my videos to safe 15% at check out.
Do you have a healed pic video of this tattoo??😲💜💞❤💜💚💜❤💞
Que máquina utilizas?
Do you need any specific kind of water? Machine and needle recommendations?
Distilled water just like gray wash?
for this method of water color you would use distilled water just like grey wash
What water do you use to water it down
Can you show graywash portrait
Eventually I will do a live video or just a video about Grey wash portraits. I’ve only done a couple of them so far. But the next chance I get I will certainly make a video about that.🤘
Any ink brand recommendations??
All the usual suspects. Eternal, Intenze, Starbright, Fusion. I do watercolor tattoos, not as many as I would like, but those are the best brands.
I agree with Dale as those are great recommendations and I use and/or have used all those brands and agree they are solid brands.
How do you know how many dips in the water is the right consistency for the color you want?
You kinda have to figure that out for yourself and depending upon the client skin. That’s why I said a couple times in the video that in the beginning I went with more water than I needed and then put that in the skin and if it wasn’t dark enough if you will I would get back into my color and add less water until I got the result I was looking for. So you kind of have to mess around a little bit and find what works for each client and their skin type.
@@ArtSomething is it the same for fake skin as well or is that a whole different process all together? Lol
Do you use sterile water?
Have you ever tattooed on loose skin? Im wondering if there's an easy way to tackle it?
It looks like you are beating up that person's skin 😱 I would never do that many passes. I prefer using a slower voltage. Wiping over the skin like that too AND no lubricant?! Goddammm
Looks nothing like water colour!!! Pretty tattoo but seriously nothing like a watercolour
It’s color with water in it. The point is showing how to use water in your color. It’s water color lol 😂
@@ArtSomething no , the whole point is for the end result to look like water colour, you know that, don’t be daft
@@neilwilliams4420 ok Neil you win buddy 👍
