thanks for watching! I used to use clip studio paint and I know that tattoo smart makes some brushes for clip studio, but not all of them are compatible. but its worth checking out their site and seeing if they have some stuff you can use!

yeah I think the spit shade is more expensive now but thats because they added some new features from back when I bought it. it's worth every cent!

thanks for watching!

yo! thank you dude!!!!

thank you! it took me so long to really figure out how useful the smudge tool is

thats a great idea! be on the look out ill try to get a video going on that when I can!

@@bigtextutorials appreciate it thank you :)

I think it's the "Tranesca Ergonomic Grip Holder for Apple Pencil" on Amazon, I bought it a while ago but you should be able to find it there! Thanks for watching!

yeah it does get pricy. i'm working on trying to find a cheaper/free alternative. if I find anything super helpful ill make a video about it soon!

a long time ago I used to use the "airbrush" brushes that come with procreate and you can do a similar technique where you set one to the smudge tool. I'm not sure of an exact dupe though, I'll look into it!

procreate

if I remember correctly I think I used the "no use this to paint" brush from the tattoo smart spit shade kit to do the painting!

@@bigtextutorials Can i have tips of how you Spitshade in procreate because for me hard to fade the ink I always end to mess up 😅🤦🏻

I think it just looks whiter in the video because I'm not using the best camera. when I wanted to lighten my paper I click the icon in the top left and mess with the brightness and tint until I get something I like

the iPad Air is great. i updated to the pro because I like having a larger screen but the drawing experience feels about the same to me

it's all up to you! some artists stay really true to the original reference and recreate old flash as accurate to the time period as possible. for example, professor york does a great job of this and is really knowledge about tattoo history. he posts a lot of his references next to his interpretations which is a great learning tool to see how he's developed his style and flash and draws on those references. other artists like Bert Krak, Jay Roth, Dan Coy, etc (the list goes on an on) will either trace or redraw a classic piece of flash and maybe take the shape of a skull or panther and embellish it, maybe change the colors or make it more modern looking. and then some people like Mark Cross, Ryan Mettz, Wan Tattooer take those ideas and get really wonky and funky with it. there's no rules just do what looks cool to you! I will say that tracing flash, even if you don't make a final piece of art with it, is a great way to warm up and/or train your hand and eye to the proportions of certain images and helps you get a feel for what goes where and will help your designs get better and better. I know this is a really long explanation but I hope that helps!

@@bigtextutorials Cheers for pointing us in the direction of some artists to look at! I’m not very knowledgeable in the subject matter, but your guidance and having points of research is super useful.

its an AirPods case!

I think it's called "plain"

I usually use a combination of screen and linear burn at 20% opacity. sometimes I use multiply, depending on what looks best

unfortunately you have to buy it from their site. I can't put it up to share on here because you have to pay for it and I wouldn't want to steal tattoo smarts product!

im not sure! I bought mine a long time ago and I think they have recently updated the pack so maybe the stuff I got is a little different than what's included now. if you dont see it maybe send them an email thru their customer support. sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

I think the palette that comes with it uses a black that isn't 100% black so you can pull up the color wheel and select the darkest black from there. sometimes I color over a section a few times or if I want a quick fix ill just duplicate my layer once I'm done and then combine the two copies and it makes it darker

@@bigtextutorials thanks so much! Keep up the good vids
