@@ArtSomething That's exactly why I do all my tattoos on my thighs. I still have a tan line I can see on my feet from going river tubing this summer. It was the first time in 20ish years that flesh saw the sun, and boy-oh-boy it was traumatic!!!
Voltage and hand speed can cause blow outs as well, not as simple as just depth. High voltage with slow hand speed physically pumps to much ink in an area and can cause puffy lines and blow outs, just like how low voltage and fast hand speed can cause a tattoo to disappear when healed.
Thank you soo very much Alex as I really do appreciate the kind words and support!! ITs people like yourself that keep me going!! So keep Rocking my friend!! 🤘🤘
I was getting a cover up of letters on my hand we stoped working on it after 3hrs The net day when it came to covering up the older tattoo my hand was swelled and was not takeing ink any reasons why Now my artiest say wait till it heals then we will go over it again
@@ArtSomething You're Out Of Line. You're Giving Tattoo Knowledge Away To Scratchers And The Like. Get The Ball Ping...😉Have you gotten those comments yet? I used to make tutorials and alot of the "Pros" gave me alot of Shhh... But that was back in the 90'z. Today, I think artists are a little more laid. Back now. I still sling the ink at night while being a Welding-Engineer by day. Wanna get my own shop going once I can settle down. Anyway, Cool video man. I respect what you're doing, on the real man. ✊✊✊
As being a teacher as well as a tattoo artist, ''contre-exemples'' are such a great way to learn. Thank you for being brave and share this to the community.
Normal tattoo artist: You have to get an apprenticeship and be our shop b for as long as we say and you might be able to tattoo. Yt artists: here's how it's done 🤣 love your channel
1 word RESPECT. I know I was grimising in pain just from watching and hod knows I don't think I could have done it but THANK YOU for the sacrificial lamb of your leg for the knowledge you pass on with everyone.
NO problem Dennis im happy to hear the video was helpful. And yeah it was kinda cringe at times lol but again im glad to know the knowledge is being passed on and hopefully it helps people out!! Thanks again Dennis and Keep Rocking my friend!! 🤘🤘
Yeah the sweet spot isnt to deep and im glad this video helped you gauge your depth a little better. Thanks again for watching we appreciate the support! 🤘🤘
Glad to hear you could see it as well. I wasnt sure if people would be able to see the blowout or not. And I too am happy the channel has helped prevent things like this from happening for you. Keep working hard and Keep ROcking Kayla!! 🤘🤘🤘
*Me tattooing my thigh thinking I had a blowout* *art something riding the tube with the needles thrown out further than my setup and still not getting a blowout* The feeling of relief that gave me after watching this was incredible, now fingers crossed that mine heal ok too
In my experience blowouts don't always show up immediately either, which I didn't see mentioned in the video. Chances are the last 3 or 4 lines should end up with a ton more color around them a day or to into healing, I would be interested in seeing a follow up video with how they look in the next week or so. I love your videos thank you!
I saw the title of the video and I thought "No way is he gonna do the leg!" You proved me wrong. It was good to see it happen on proper skin and it looks so obvious on thick skin. Thanks for this 🤘🏻🤘🏻
HAHAHA yeah i couldnt go back on what I said so I figured I better do it sooner then latter so I dont talk myself out of it lol!! But im glad you enjoyed it and im glad it was good to see. Thanks again Stephan appreciate the support!! 🤘🤘🤘
The fact that you do this for people learning. Dude thank you so much! I have “friends” that tattoo and I always get the round around it’s like no one wants to teach the basics of their trade. Everyone ends up having has their own style regardless. So I’ve been learning everything from you appreciate it teach 💯
Your videos seem to come for me at just the right time. I'm getting some various thickness in my line work on my leg and thought "damn how am I getting a blowout" but nothing looks even close to these. I think I'm just struggling with inconsistent depth but nothing that is actually causing blowouts whew quite a relief
Happy to hear the video came out at the right time for you. One of the hardest things to do and I still struggle with it, is getting and keeping smooth consistent lines. I find the more I line the better it gets but i still get thrown off sometimes depending upon the clients skin. So keep working at it as it will come in time.
one day i realized that tattooing was going to be my dream career, and i told my mom about it, and for my birthday she got me a tattoo kit, i’ve been watching your videos left and right, making notes, going back to make sure i didn’t miss any important advice, and now watching you tattoo yourself so that i can make sure i don’t do any blowouts my first time, means so much to me, i know there are many youtube’s and many artists, but you’re the one i’ve been watching for months, learning, and grasping any information i can. so thank you so much for being a kind soul and helping another soul thrive, i think it’s because of you that i may be able to grow and get better overtime, so when the time comes, i’m going to come back and credit you. thank you.
Man, I really admire that you are willing to do that in your own skin just to teach us. So much RESPECT. Thank you so much, you earned a new subscriber.
This was such a morning treat! Thinner skin would’ve been easier to achieve your mega blowouts. I’ve done it to the inside of my left ankle, cheers from Ontario Canada Dave
HAHA happy to hear it!! And yes thinner skinned areas tend to blow out much more dramatically if you will. Sorry to hear about the ankle tho and Cheers back at you brother!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Hey man just an idea but you should do a video series of your subscribers sending in pictures of their own tattoos that they have done and you can and tell us what we could do different or what we could do to improve the tattoos! Great video!
You know what many people have asked for something like that but I was finishing up my fake skin series. But with that about done I think I may look into this as another series. Thanks Powerstroke. And keep ROcking my friend!! 🤘🤘
You're currently teaching a tattoo artist in the making bro!!! Thank you so much 🙌 I'm gonna leave a lil leg space just to carry on what you did for me and hopefully teach someone someday lol.
Apologies for the massive lack of comments, but that doesn’t keep me from watching your vids. I will say that I have very much enjoyed your journey I’ve seen you take on YT, my journey is about to start as well and I want to say ty Dave. I get to start my apprenticeship at the ripe age of 49 lol. You pushed me brother and I can never say thank you enough. Your vids help guide and direct me to help me change my life not just for me but for my family as well, ty again keep up the outstanding work brother, lataz
I love your channel. Your so sweet and nice to watch... Not cocky know-it-all like other tattoos artist who are trying to teach you but talk down to you the hole time. It's nice to have somebody out there not only willing to walk you through the steps but show you. You're awesome!!
Dude RESPECT!!!! Taking one for the team so we can see the difference in a good tattoo and a bad one.... now thats Dedication. Love the videos, keep them coming
My message is not related to the theme but I wanted to thank you for your videos and work and say how much it means to me. I feel I am learning a lot. Before the lockdowns started I was looking to see if anyone from the business would take me in. I think I have the art skill, but I am missing the tattoo skill. And I got a lot of "I'm sorry we don't take apprentices" For someone who wants to learn how to tattoo I felt really hopeless. But found your videos, got myself a coil machine and some tools and here I am. Practicing on fake skin. Praying that I get this right :))) So thank you. They are really helpful.☺️
I’m in the same situation! Except I had a teacher but he vanished on me after 5 months. I was learning how to draw. I didn’t want to lose hope so I bought a tattoo kit and all the stuff I need for a beginner and I’m practicing on fake skin. I did my first stencil of Spider-Man. The trace looked good but the stencil not so much lol. Don’t know if I used too much stencil stuff or pressed down too hard on the stencil but it was kinda off. I think my first tattoo came out bad but we gotta start somewhere! The needles are confusing to me. I have to learn more about them as well. Good luck in the future!!
Thank you. And like you said. We have to start from somewhere and we have the time to practice too. Being in lockdown and furlough gave me lots of free time. Which I am grateful for😊.
Bro respect. Trying to show other artist how blowouts happen while giving advice and educating everyone on how skin works by give yourself blowouts is insane but awesome. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to more videos
I have perfect examples of blowouts & scarring on the first couple tattoos I did on myself. The scarring is bad too- bumped out throughout a whole tattoo.. I used a 1rl standard needle on a rotary machine. I had no clue what I was doing. This was right before Art-Something made his RU-vid debut!
Oh DAMN man sorry to hear about that graffics. But hey I guess sometimes thats how we learn and im happy to hear it was on yourself at least. I hope all is going good for you brother. I know your working hard and its paying off!! SO keep pushing. And thank you again for all the support you Rock brother!! 🤘🤘🤘
HAHA aint that the TRUTH!! Sounds like you learned from experience... And sometimes thats the only/best way to learn. Thanks for the support Jay and Keep Rocking my friend! 🤘🤘
SO much love. I thought that the images were plenty enough, but seeing it happen (bless your self-sacrificing soul!!!!) in real time, is super helpful. You are going to be one masterful piece of art by the time you're finished teaching. Again, I am beyond grateful 🙏 I love the passion you bring to the art.
Dude, you are awesome. Best thing what i like in your channel, is that you show how to do it and how it looks in real life. You don't show pictures or tell only stories, but you realy show and tell what is what and how it looks. I realy like your channel!
what i find sad that are people on Facebook groups which are triyng to discredit you , mby you're not the best tattoo artist but definitely you know how to explain , with your videos i started to get in this world of tattooing, already did 2 tattoos on my friend and it went pretty nice. thank you for your videos !
Dude.. This makes me feel better about what ive been practicing on myself, I'm pretty sure I'm not going deep enough on some color packing but definitely havent blown out yet. Appraciate this vid man 👏 no pain no gain brotha
You a real one tattooing your leg to teach us mane, I got done my first tattoo in my leg last night and everyone says it’s great. I’ll keep watching ya vids as I progress keep it up brother 💪🏽
I just gotta tell you how much I appreciate you and your videos. I’m learning to tattoo on fake skin before I attempt to tattoo myself and I have learned SO SO MUCH from your videos. Thank you for your patience, dedication, and your amazing videos. I drink them up like water every time there’s a new one! Have you ever thought about releasing a book? Maybe one for beginners? I’d be the first in line to buy one if it covered technique, sanitation, equipment, etc. I’ve read a few books but I feel like they don’t spend enough time on technique aimed at beginners. Anyway, now I’m rambling! Thanks again brother, please keep this up!

SO thankful for these informative videos, I been tattooing on and off since I was 18, now 30 and wanting to go professional. it's always great to have someone willing to help with information as we are always learning and open to learning more. Blow outs have been a slight issue over my years of tattooing not always but have had them and want to avoid them by new techniques and insight. thanks for being here for us man.
My skin blows out extremely easy so I don’t get mad, I also don’t ever get nice full coverage..... always have a few really weird blotchy almost like blown out in the middle of color packing spots. It’s OK though I still like my tattoos :) Figure they’re like little “dings on my chassis” that show the fun ride I have gone on in my life :)
Thank my friend I really do appreciate the support!! And at least I only had to do it once now its out there for many to hopefully learn from. Thanks again and keep rocking!! 🤘🤘
Wow I cannot believe you did that to yourself to help educate us! Massive kudos to you, thank you for all the hard work and dedication. My work has improved massively thanks to your videos!! 🙌
Dude I cringed hard every time you tried My tattoo artist is pretty heavy handed I don’t have any blowouts but I know them deep needles don’t feel good at all. Much respect man love your work!
Dude, hilarious man. I enjoyed this video immensely. Hist my 5-cents, I also had an experience where the client actually hit a corner of a table a day after her tattoo session and you can see the impact and the way the lines of the furniture turned out. It was crazy, but I learned that it's still sitting on the skin and any impact can make a blowout as well; and of course that artist as well. Great stuff man.
My man. I've said it before and I'll say it again, your the most unselfish and probably one of the most likeable human beings anywhere 👍. Could you either cover how thin the skin is on the wrist and back of hand? I'm ready to do the back of my hand but I have no body fat, seems a third of the depth you just did would blow out on back of hand
Oh I'm so sorry for the pain you went through making this video. I'm trying my hand at tattooing and damn, you went above and beyond. I've haven't even started on myself yet and I could tell that the first time you moved the needle was to much.
Man I know that hurt! I've blown out a few lines on my thigh practicing. Thanks for the new video, I'm always able to take something away from each one. Keep up the great work 🤘
Greetings to you from Lebanon, you are really a wonderful man, my friend. You continue to do a good job, and we appreciate your sacrifice of your body for us.
Thank you friend,well i am self though artist for over 3 years now ...had maybe 2 -5 blowouts but small ones that almost dissapeared over time in over 300 tattoos in first 3 years..but i was watching guys like you are that helped me to understand,now they call me gentle tattooer :D hahaha i really like to go gentle and just enough to leave ink into the skin...thank you maestre for good video regards from Serbia!
This one just comes up when I'm twisting my head as hard as I can around just this! Respect man! 🙏 I really cringed when you did the last 3 lines 🙈 I seem to struggle a little with this, and I know it - I basically hate lines, love shading tho. I can say I have seen max 10 blowouts on my work when I have been doing them(mostly dots, from where they move, my muscle jumps over a longer line etc). But lately I have gotten soooo much hate because "I only blowout everything" yet, I didn't notice ANYTHING on those complaining about it. I know my hand - machine speed it right, I adjust my hand speed according to place and skin(usually 9v on Q2). This really helped me understand more how this can happen 🙏
mad respect for you dude 🥺 esp tattooing blowout on your own skin! looks painful- but thanks for teaching this!! ur amazing and keep up with the awesome videos 😊
Dude... Thank you for all the vids and podcasts... I've learned alot from watching and listening to what you're putting out... I've been in to all sorts of art and ink since I was a kid and thanks to my wife, just recently decided to go for it and started teaching myself to tattoo... And thanks to you basically, it's going alot better than I ever thought it would... So thank you again man... God bless... 🙏🤘✊
Wow thats awesome to hear!! And if it helps my wife also pushed me to purse this journey as I was a bit hesitant. I can tell you now I am very happy I took a leap of faith. Im happy to know the videos have helped you out along the way!! Keep working hard my friend and thank you for all the support🤘🤘
Ur The Best teacher and great Human being man love u form India ❤️❤️ learning lot with ur videos I m completely new but now ur my teacher n learning everything hope soon I m also good tattoo artist
