Tattoo for Beginners

Tattoo for Beginners

“In the final project we will tattoo an alternative surface to the skin. We will transfer a design to an orange, and in it we will apply the techniques seen in the course of line, fill and shading based on points. It is important that you remember to check that all your materials are working correctly. Remember to check the machine calibration videos in case you have a coil machine. An important part of this project is the design, do not forget that to start it is ideal that this is simple for your first attempts, little by little you will be able to make more complex designs. Ideally, go slowly affirming the hand. If you don't know what to design, I'll attach a flower design that you can use as an example. This design is intended to apply the three techniques named above. It is also good that you look for references, you do not necessarily have to occupy the attached design, you can fly your imagination and try everything you want, remember that we are playing with a fruit and we can make mistakes without problems. It is time to practice. The idea in this project is that you approach the surface of the skin, that you become familiar with the vibration and weight of the machine, and that you learn more than anything to affirm your pulse and firmness of the stroke.

It is always good to ask and advise yourself because more than one has happened to you. ”
