not one of you in here were acting like a professional, as a SCRATCHER by your definition is one who use the stupid friend to get stupider tattoo’s , if you read my whole post I am working on getting a new mentor to finish out my apprenticeship and till then will not use a human as a canvas.So much for professionalism eh guys if the way you guys got your as you have put it licence then you can have it as , would rather be a SCRATCHER than be linked to your kind of professionalism where you don’t even read the full post , I am not perfect but I not a Asshole IDIOT that is willing to ruin anyone’s skin I have more respect for this craft than I have read from most of you in here , atleast I can admit my short comings and limit myself the capabilities I know I have and stay within my limitations , most you in here seem to have swollen heads and I can only assume assholes from all the time you spend putting down on here LISTEN TO WHAT YOU PREACH AND MAYBE PRACTICE IT YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY LEARN SOMETHING

Actually this is my last post , it takes a big person to say I can help and do so than someone who ust says you aren’t doing this right . I have no plans on being like the nay Sayers here if a person has the passion and is trying to do some thing they love and believe in then if I have the answer I will give it . It is pretty petty when all I asked was a opinion on inks and such things , yes I asked for pointers but sticks in the mud like most of the people here are the people that give the true Tattoo artist a bad names that shows me that they don’t love the craft but the glory the craft brings them so good bye to all of you I will one day come back and show you just how wrong you were about me by doing it the right way with love and respect for the craft

This will be my last post due to the fact that you all seem to be defeatists who would rather trample a possible good tattoo artist because you can’t see past your own short comings of short shortsightedness Please by all means the next time someone comes in just tell them to get lost because that is the message you sent to me in a round the bush way and I don’t need people who might be afraid of someone with something to offer to the tattooing community

although he is a she, that was a very kind thing when you read my whole post ,saying I was using practice skins ,and yes I have a specific part of the house set up with Autoclave and is very sterile with all the amenities including a health unit issued certificate so thank you very much you are kind

Thats a very nice reply, but what you call someone that learned lots of diferent things from several diferent places, has a sterilized environment ina specific part of the house, with certified sterile equipment, and knows what he is doing, and doesnt have a licence (honestly that part is a major fail since there are several countrys that still today don’t have such thing), and they actually are even doing their practice in sintetic/pig skin instead of real people till they are good enough to do so, love all there is about tattoos and do it for their love to it and not for fame and fortune… you call those scratchers? You kidding me?

You say all that stuff and still each 1 out of 2 albums in here, are with personal works, are true abominations, even lower than “scratching” and still i don’t see anyone kicking those users out…

I’m sorry, but the general beliefs around here, are pure elitism crap, jsut in this post it was easily seen, everyone jumped on him, as soon as he said he practiced at home, ignored the part he didnt tattoo people, and immidiatly labeled him without even at least giving benefit of the doubt and asked to check his work, his work place, etc… thats just crap attitude no matter what you say.

I have RNA training plus I took the required health unit course so I am not some IDIOT that is going to cross contaminate or worse transfer a illness from a customer to myself I am extremely health consious and actually double glove even for doing my practice skins so that when I can finih my apprenticeship I won’t have bad habits that can’t be fixed

I think that because of the dangers that are out there now such as AIDS, Hep A, B, and C, MRSA, etc.. an apprenticeship is important. It’s also way easier to have someone teach you what you need to know than hope that you found reliable information from anonymous people on the internet. A house is no place for a tattoo studio. You cannot guarantee that someone won’t bring a contagion into your home where there are surfaces that CANNOT be sterilized. In all actuality taking a “shortcut” can set you way back because you have to figure out everything on your own. I waited patiently for an apprenticeship for 12 years from the right shop. I had been offered apprenticeships from other places but the fit and/or timing wasn’t right. I also had to work on my artwork for quite some time to get it up to snuff. Most of the unlicensed work I’ve seen around here is not only poorly executed but poorly drawn as well. Usually if you can’t get an apprenticeship you are either too lazy to put in the leg work or your art isn’t where it needs to be. Everyone at our shop has a degree in fine arts. It seems that’s the way it’s going to be in the future of the industry. More and more serious artists are tattooing and elevating the level of quality of tattoos. Scratchers aren’t competition, they can have the idiots that just want crappy tattoos just for the sake of having tattoos. I want clients that care what goes onto their bodies and knows what a good tattoo looks like.

Apprenticeships and all the work that goes into them is really a test of character and quality. It’s there to weed out the dedicated from the wanna be’s. Show respect for those that came before you and you’ll get the support and respect that you’re due.

all I can say is that I am not scratching I am practicing on practice skins as my mentor had me doing before she dumped me so anyone wanting to belittle me can go and do their own thing cause the reason I am looking for the advice is exactly what you accuse people of . all I can say is wow this is the only place where if you don’t by the looks of it have at least 5 to 10 yrs under your belt you are treated no better than garbage , I have a great respect for this craft and that is why till I can replace my mentor the only thing I will do is use practice skins to improve and use the 6 months I did have with my mentor plus any of the truly kind souls who have a love for this craft give me , I am appalled that humans with the same love and devotion to such a wonderful craft can be so nasty to one another
