Hey Guys and Gals… My name is Wayne I live in pittsburgh pa, I have been airbrushing since I was 12 and I have a awseome steady hand and a good eye so learning wont be that difficult i hope… Im looking to do tats and eventually would like to do my own business so…. I need to know what is a decent begginger set for under 200 bucks… any other info would be greatly apprieciated!! Thanks!
Ahhhh good ol’ pittsburgh, I love that place, i have quite a few friends in lincon place.
I miss it there.
But best of luck on your tattooing, i’m looking to begin too but i’m going through an apprenticeship myself. I just feel it’s the right way to go about things as far as becoming a tattoo artist is concerned…
Welcome to the forum!, i’ve been here for like 2 days, and from what i can tell, it’s a pretty sweet forum. Lots of good people.
Hahaaha!! Thanks Zane!! So far I like it too! I want to do this soooo bad!! So Im looking foreward to finding an apprenticeship I just sent out an email about 1hr ago to a place called Rt. 60 tatto! So im hoping they will do with me!! Anyhow thats cool you got friends up this way! where you from or located now??
Nice, nice… I don’t know alot about the tattoo shops there or anything like that
but you should definitely check out the work they do and make sure that they’re someone you’d like to show you the ropes
And when i went in about 2 weeks ago to talk to someone about my apprenticeship they basically asked me to bring some other art in, whatever type of art really, Pencil and paper, Airbrush or what have you…
But yeah i have friends in PGH, i met them through wrestling… I’ve been wrestling pro for about 4 years now and met them 2-3 years back, spent some time in pittsburgh to hang out with them and stuff and had lots of fun there…
I live in Lexington, Kentucky myself, but due to wrestling i travel alot.
Good luck with the apprenticeship man, if they give you any suggestions or tasks such as “Maybe try drawing up some wingsets and something a little more tattoo-esque, then bring it back to me” I wouldn’t take it as an insult or anything, From what i’ve gathered through stories of others getting an apprenticeship they pretty much test you and your dedication… Just a heads up, because at first i thought it was more or less there way of telling me that i wasn’t quite cutting it and needed some work, Not that i don’t… but you know. lol.
Like i said… best of luck to ya man, keep us updated, and post some pictures of your art work whenever you get a chance, i’m a big fan of airbrushing and i’ve done a little bit, but i’m far from proficient… So i’d like to see it… (i believe you have to have atleast 10 posts to upload pictures however… there is a post about it in the general board)
