Hey guys!
Today is my 6th day since I’ve started practicing tattooing.

I’ve been trying to post here every time and get a feedback from fellow artists!
So I also have been trying the same designs in different days.
These little birds are from day 1, day 5 and day 6!
I have been trying to work more on saturation and machine control.

The last times I didn’t know much about needles, fake skin, etc, was just freestyle everything.
Now I’m doing more research and really put effort in learning more. This last design I used a 1005RL on a really shitty fake skin from Temu haha.
*I bought my Skinz and am waiting for them to arrive!

Also, please don’t mind the shadowing on the last one, I dropped the machine and messed the needles, so it started to rip the fake skin 😭

Okay, so what do you guys think? Is the improvement visible or not really?
What else can I improve?
Thank you so much! You have been so helpful and kind 🥹

This is my day 5! Yaaay
I realised I’m getting a better control and the depth is getting a bit more uniform (first 3 images). Also I’m trying to improve repeating the same design (last image) this is a 1 day difference work

I wanted to ask some questions for you guys:

1. How can I get a better control?
2. How can I get the same depth all along?
3. How is it looking? What can I improve?

Hey guys! I have been posting my practice work here every day!

So the first image is my very first tattoo on fake skin (day 1), and today (day 5) I tried to trace it again and put a bit of shadows…
What do you guys think?
An improvement?
What else can I do?

Today is day 4 practicing!
I’m very excited about tattooing and I’m practicing literally every day.
I was thinking about going back to basics, lines, circles, etc…
But I see a lot of controversy on that: people saying it’s pretty good, and others saying it’s a waste of time.
What do you guys think?

Also, as always: what are good and bad points about these designs?
Thank you so much in advance guys!

Day 3 practicing on fake skin
I asked about the difference of fake skin and real skin on some posts back them, so for the moth, I’m showing how it looked before I cleaned with Vaseline.

For the three bottom ones, I know they are pretty inconsistent, I was just trying a different thing haha
But yeah, I’d love to know bad and good points and how my progress is going 🥹

Today is day 3 of me practicing!

I wanted to ask the artists that already changed to real skin:

How different is it from fake skin?

I have this problem that I do the lines and they look ok, very saturated before I clean them (with Vaseline) on fake skin, and then they look soooo weird after that. Then I have to line again and again on top of the ones that I’ve already done, but it doesn’t look right (final result on the pics)

I wonder if this is just a fake skin problem? Or is it like that with real skin too and my technique is shit? Lmao

Also, I wanted to ask about what I can improve. Good and bad points of this design too :)

Day 2 practicing!

Please let me know the bad and good points of this :)

Hey guys!

I’m new here, and this is my very first time getting my hands on a machine.

How is it? Tips to improve?

Thanks!
