the first time i held the tattoo gun, i was confused because of the weight and the machine vibrates. it's a lot different from holding a brush or a pencil.
i was happy i did the practice because i learned a lot. i learned a bit on how to tune my machine and about applying colors. i also discovered that i improved my technique. i'm getting used to the vibration and the weight of the tattoo gun. i did good on the lines on the pig skin but i know it's still different when i'm actually tattooing.
i felt good after the pig skin tat because i think i'm ready to tattoo on humans. here are pictures of the pig skin tat.




i noticed a lot of you are checking this out so here's the link to the final tattoo... Tracie

Hi that looks really good! I have done a few tats on people but i like to practice a lot and my partner is running out of skin so i have got myself some pigs skin but how do you prepare the pigs skin before tattooing it? i think i have to boil it ?
i don't boil it. i just wipe it with alcohol.
