What IS this horrid thing?

So you’re tattooing already? Dude.. you are FAR from being ready for that. Trash that gun of yours and work on your drawing skills. You need the practice.

Yes, I looked at the rest of it. As I said, you need to practice and practice hard. Learn how to walk before you start Olympic Running competitions.

That’s very good, and you should definitely keep working at it. But butchering people’s skin and picking up very poor work habits is the last thing a future mentor wants on his apprentice’s record, not to mention the whole disease and infections issue you got going on there with that kitchen job.

You truly want to become an apprentice? Truly? Then torch your crap gun and paint your house with your inks, and then start drawing more. Your lines are uneven and your perspective is wank. You need to practice with erase’able mediums for a long while yet, build your portfolio and start working at finding an apprenticeship. There is a very pertinent thread about that issue somewhere around here. I recommend you read it.

Palm to face* I hope Chen doesn’t see this
