- What is a grey wash? How is it different from a grey shade? How to make a grey wash?
If you have any of these questions, then this video is for you!
In this video, I have explained what is a Grey Wash in tattoos and how it is used in tattoo shading for black and grey tattoos. You will learn how to use grey wash in tattoos, how to make tattoo grey wash, how to mix grey wash for tattoo shading, and much more.
A grey shade is made by mixing black and white pigment whereas a grey wash is made by mixing the black pigment with water. The power of transparency is much higher than grey shades in the case of tattoos and grey wash for tattoo shading, thus, gives the desired output.
In this video, I have explained this in a simple yet very detailed manner.

Thank you mate, this is the best explanation of gray wash on youtube, I have been following your videos and they are highly educative, really motivating. Thanks a lot, I want to be good as you, I know it will take time, but with your help I will get there, saving up to enroll for your online classes. Thank you mate. You are doing amazing work.
The information you provide is worth gold. Even though there is no Turkish translation in the video, I combine what you say piece by piece, and the information that I cannot find from Turkish sources comes to life in my mind. I really thank you, your videos make a lot of people light.
Great Grey Wash explanation. It was simple and straightforward. Good argument on why use a wash. There is a time and place for different variations of grey colors. There is also a proper use of grey-wash as applied to different colors of skin.
Thank you 🙏 I am glad that you find this info useful
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I learned so much - being an apprentice myself. I was researching a lot on the difference on the two; grey wash and opaque grey and this has really made me understand it fully, so thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! :)
You are welcome :)
Thanks a lot, Sunny! These tips are priceless

You are welcome
What a great explanation thank you
DR. BADFISH thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you! I've never heard this explained this deep. Now shit is starting to make sense on greywash I've practiced on my legs. I'm getting ready to do a few years in federal prison & figured I'd get a head start with black & grey work. I'll have plenty of time to practice.. even if it takes a year to get a homemade machine together- I can practice on a daily basis with pencil & paper until then!
I am glad that you found this video insightful, thank you 🙏🏻

Hi i just saw this vid and its very helpful. Now my question is when i do greys especially 30% or 50% its kinda hard to tell if its too dark or too light.. is there a way to tell if it will heal with the shade i want? Or u really just have to wait till it heals
Thanx sir
Pushing white in a uniform manner while difficult is far from impossible. Though the best way ive found is tedious at best just using #1203RL/LT and do the absolute smallest concentric circles you can. I do first layer without puncturing the correct depth to get a "primer" down then I go like normal. It can take forever but it works and works well.
Thank you for your suggestion, I will try it out for sure, I have never tried packing medium to large area with 3RL
Tnx
Love you Sair.... 💓💓💓💓💓❤❤❤
Love you too my friend
hi. thanks for this video. im researching about something that is between those two techniques. shades of grey dilueted in water. grey sumi? what would you say about it?
Hey Sunny! Just wanted to say LILA is awesome and I'm learning so much, I did have one question for you, do you happen to know where I can get LOX in the US?
I'm not able to find any, and I'm hesitant to try other possible replacements since I know LOX works really well for you all.
I hope all is well, keep up the good work!
Thanks,
Ben
Thank you Benjamin :)
You can try to find Xylocaine or Lignocaine ointment/cream in your local drug store, it is the same as LOX
@@SunnyBhanushali awesome! Thanks a bunch, I’ll see if I can locate some. 🙏
Спасибо друг! Что делишься своим опытом, это бесценно!
Thank you
Thanks for the video. Can you use distilled water in any ink color to change its tone?
Yes, you can use it to dilute the ink
Thank You so much sir, which black ink is best and color brands are best for skin? Brands?
I love Eternal Ninja Black and sometimes I use Dynamic
Thank you,very.by
Si pudiera poner traducción al español se lo agradecería muchísimo
It wasent that bad but hoped you would go into opaque grey in more detail, it was mainly todo with grey wash…
I was wondering can you still get that washed effect with opaque grey, surely if it’s light enough it won’t look like solid colour
Thank you, it will always work like solid colour, unless you use it greywash.
Sir it's really really helpful video for beginner if there will be subtitles in hindi or use little bit hindi in some places because everyone properly can't take the things what u r saying sir?
I will get the subtitles done soon
How can you get black when fully saturating with lets say 40% dillute ? if you heavily saturate with 40% youll actually get 40% meaning it wont get any darker than 40% ?? if you use black for saturating- you can actually softly make 20, 40, 60%ect all the way black. (ofc stroke and needle depth plays alot).
Sander Virki if you take 40% black and add your first pass it would be 40% on skin, and if you again add another pass then it will add up to become the darker black, and if you do multiple passes, you will end up getting 100% black. That’s how greywash works :)
whats your take on a machine that is constant running `` battery pack `` , when dipp for greywash tones . i feel like if the machine is constant on- the needles would mix up every tone in the ink cup very fast if you dip for in between tones `` lets say middle tone grey and a little in the light grey `` would not that light grey become darker and darker over the session ?
You are right, and it does get darker and darker over time, however you get used to it with experience.
@@SunnyBhanushali humm , wonder how i will get use to something that gonna heal up different every time hehe , i guess footpedal is the only way to go for me then
@@Denka187 or just use a rinse cup.
@@benjamindains6906 see what you saying but that dont take away that you mix up the tones in your ink cupes alot faster if you have a machine that is running constant . even if you rinse out every time you pick up a new tone you still gonna blend all those greywash tones together in the ink cups faster
@@Denka187 Yes I completely agree, and actually I think I misread your first comment, sorry about that. I would get them as thoroughly mixed from the get go so you're not trying to deal with that issue (at least when first starting out).
What about artists like A. D. Pancho that have so much white and such big areas?
That only works on real good white skin, and honestly only handful artists could do it properly, I would only 1% artists can handle neutral grays ans whits on larger tattoos, one of them is definitely Ad Pancho
Heard somewhere that if you’re tattooing. On a white skin you need 5 cups from ur solid black to ur lightest gray wash , while on a dark skin you need only 3 cups from your solid black to lightest gray wash. Is that accurate sir ?
No, it is just personal preference, it depends on how much you wish to divide the blacks into shades
How did u turn the picture opaque to gray wash to show transparent in the skin ?
Felipe Sousa I reduced the opacity of the photoshop brush to explain the transparency
@@SunnyBhanushali thank you so much , and congratulations for your videos
@@SunnyBhanushali I asked about the woman picture, original is opaque , and u putted transparent to show in the skin. How u did this?
Felipe Sousa changed the blending mode to multiply
Subtittles plis
Hi Sunny, I went to the site, signed in with Google account, started free trial, it keeps telling me to verify my email, country, and state, but there are no states to pick from in the drop down. I went to make a different account just using my email and it won't let me because my other account was used via Google. It's a mess.
Hello Benjamin, extremely sorry for the inconvenience, can you drop a quick email to support@lila.art, I will get is sorted :)
@@SunnyBhanushali thanks! I think LILA did get it sorted, I was able to watch some of the courses and they’re great. I think I’m going to upgrade because I want to watch your master realism courses!
is it really possible for 10% gray wash to eventually reach a 40% shade of gray wash? i dont think it can get much darker.
Try it out :)
@@SunnyBhanushali I’m afraid but I’ll do it on a spot that goes completely black haha Thank you, your videos are really informative and really good.
Water ka nam kiya hai sir
Distle water
I wonder how It would look on a dark skin person🤞🏿🙏🏿🙏🏾💪🏾
Sir, agli baar hindi me speech denge to or a66e se samaj me aayega .. kyuki sabki englis power full nahi hoti aapki tarah.. i req to you sir.😅😅😅😅

Aap hindi me video dalo na😊

So question: if you have a 1/4 cap of black; you can build up layers until you get a look that looks like it was done with a full cap black.? The point being that not all shades in tattoos are made with the shade they look but actually multiple passes of a lighter than seen shade of black.?
