lol your true fans know your a really good artist my friend and don't worry about the the hate we appreciate your videos u help alot of artist wish your videos where around when I started tattooing
Hey my bro thanks for the support currently I’m using xtreme ink white wash set and dynamic triple black for black (All White wash sets are great from the top brands as well so don’t stress if you can’t find xtreme)
@@therealbronson thank you so much ma brother you are very humble person. Yeah I am already odered xtreme ink and empire ink set . I have TBK one. thank you so much for your help . Do what you do as best we are always with you. your channel os so help full you are such a good person . much love bother ❤️❤️❤️
Hey thank you best just to google inkjet stencil (solution) for the ink and (paper) to find your nearest supplier feel free to send me a message on instagram and I’ll send you photos if you can’t find it. But if you have already normally printed images it won’t work you need the printer ink lines to be clear and new.
Working from light to dark is a new concept I’ll have to explore. I literally do the opposite. How much would you charge for a portfolio critique? Thanks bro!
@@Joec23tattoo hey bro I still go dark to light but not rushing to my darkest value “black” is a great way to get really accurate values without over using the black values. And allowing values to build up slowly so they are really solid. I don’t charge for anything like that bro just send me a dm on instagram
It would be dope if you had a Google meets or live chat and while your tattooing actually engage the handful of people in the conference video. It might be a little chaotic in the beginning but would be worth it. I'm relatively new to the tattoo industry and only worked on my own skin and family. I've used fake skin but using the fake skins is counterintuitive from there perspective of tattooing real human skin . If your just wanting to do art with practice skin then artificial skin serves its intended purposes. I've got a ton of questions about technique and tips on how to prevent chances of overworking the skin . The difference in body area where the skin is drastically tougher then others would the machjne be set lower 6.5v or would you increase voltage 7.5 etc. Regardless I am thankful for the content you upload and have improved greatly because of the things I've watched in your videos.. You always bang out awesome tattoos bro mad props 🔥🔥🔥
hey appreciate the comment & support bro, I find taught to tattoo areas its best to slow down I won't really drop my volts but just slow my hand speed allot stretch more etc some places are just slow but trust the process. yeah forsure bro id love to do something like that for you all i can see myself doing lives every so often so I can help everyone out with their questions. but im unsure if it would line up with everyones time zones especially when I hit 10k subscribers I think then I might at least get 150 people on the live. but definitely keen to make something like this happen!!!!!
@therealbronson you make a valid point. If you ever decided to take on an apprentice I'd be eager to learn . Not just the tattooing but all of the art . I still have the same mentality in if I never make a dollar from a tattoo I'll still be tattooing until I physically can't anymore. Seriously if you ever want to take an official and traditional apprenticeship I'd be willing to chase that opportunity.
beautiful work man I have a fold pro, unfortunately I've been noticing it really starts to struggle to pack solid after a couple hours to the point of needing to up the voltage by 2 or 3 volts from the starting 7v i like to use..It's still a great machine i was in love with it at first to the point of using it over my flux max, great battery life, unbelievably smooth shading with the 2.5 stroke setting but it takes me at least double time to line or pack solid compared to the fk .Do you get the same with yours or is mine defective, it's not the battery because I've got 2 .Also ,in some stroke settings the needles don't retract fully unless you run them so short you have to basically ride the tube..
hey bro thanks for the comment yeah at 1st I was thinking battery problem if it happens over time in the session, have you tried writing to them to get a new one? I stay around 7.5v for lining and shading with 3.9mm stroke maybe up it 0.5 if im pushing a larger liner. (I wouldn't line with it under 3.9mm stroke as that's not the hit you want for lining). weird mine lines really well almost a strong point of the machine & and its crazy how smooth they are aye. write them an email and let me know how you get on maybe I can try assist you with it all. personally I would just buy a new one as they are pretty cheap I would take that trade of on it being so cheap that maybe they need replacing more often. in saying that iv killed some really expensive machines.
Appreciate you bro currently editing part two I can’t wait for you to see how this healed. I use a white wash bro from xtreme but All White washes are great I also dip into an opaque at times with my white wash to really push that grey in areas but never by itself .
LMAO..... for real huh. One second of missed recording and obviously you had time to bring back Da Vinci from the dead, show him how to tattoo and let him finish....LOL Good stuff bro, dig the work.
Loved the work.. beautiful.. and good clear breakdown of what you were doing as you moved.. One issue.. Branson.. PLEASE take care of your lower back… I thought you were maybe just standing at start, but noticed you still standing at the end.. it’s fine if you (or anyone) wants to think I’m being anal.. I’m not, you absolutely Wiill begin to suffer in the future.. please don’t be like I was.. and think “I’ll be ok” .. Great work though
Hey thanks for the support no I know what you mean I had afew days standing to this prior so had a pretty sore back even at the beginning of this tattoo definitely important amto look after it if you want a long career thanks
my clients are paying me for the TATTOO not the stencil, they don't care how it gets there they care about the final result. 99% of tattoo artists that can get this kind of results from this kind of stencil could do it with no stencil at all, but probably 90% of tattoo artists can't get this kind of result with ANY stencil. Work smarter not harder, if you're up to stenciling for an hour before an 8h tattoo to get the same result you would get with a 2 minute stencil for "artistry" good on you though, I'll use anything I can in my advantage and still work 12h a day
I think for me hand stenciling was the connectionor like a bond to tattooing. Like hand stenciling is the essence of beginning the journey of becoming a successful tattoo artist. If as a artists I draw the design and then take a photo of it so it can be ran through a stencil printing machine it most likely will only be to save time ....personally I wouldn't know the difference because I've only ever hand stencil but completely believe if I had a printer my quality would improve , the process would be shorter and designs wouldn't be as limited to my drawing skill....
@@Justincochran-m6lif you are new to tattooing you should ABSOLUTELY hand stencil everything, it gives you a first go at it that will "train " you for the upcoming line work or it's a great opportunity to figure out how one will approach the tattoo, HOWEVER, if you're an experienced artist you 100% hand stenciled everything for YEARS, some of us are from a time where we made our own needles, tuned our own machines, had to get books and magazines for reference material because no pinterest (or internet!) and had to go print out designs in several sizes because no one had a printer at home. If you run your own studio and tattoo for 8,9h straight,plus give client in person consultations, touch up sessions, paper work,social media consultations, posts and a family and you're wasting half an hour doing something you could do in one minute, in MY opinion,you're a fool.
