"my drawing skill aren't that great"

Are you sure that tattooing is a good idea?

If your drawing skills "aren't that great" please stay the fuck away from peoples skin with permanent ink.

"Hi I'm your tattoo artist, my drawing skills aren't that great so let me draw on your skin with a needle and ink that will last forever" - This is what it would be like.

Are you trolling? Only reason I ask is because your folio is pretty sweet.....can't tell if troll or not

It's as easy as drawing every day until your drawing skills are great

Its possible but you have to walk backwards in counter clockwise circles with a chicken egg between your legs whilst chanting the Black Sacrament for 12 hours on a black friday. Oh, and you cant break the egg or you have to start over.

Need to look into it but someone once told me, draw a shit load, I'm talking loads of sketch books for months on end, Get an ink gun and a some ham joints and practice loads then ink your leg or arm

good luck
