huh? whos really gonna take the time to read all the stuff U have to say. GEEZ!!!
Hey tattitude, get a grip bro! As long as there are idiots out there who want to get rich quick or become rock star tattooists the easy way there are gonna be assholes who put this crap out and make money off of it! What can you do? As a professional artist all you can do is EDUCATE.Unfortunately there is no law prohibiting stupidity and we live in a world of free commerce. The average joe will read this ebay thing and believe that this guy can really show them the trade in an ebook! They won't know that the pics of tattoos in the ad aren't even done by the so called "teacher" Our hands are tied my friend, just keep doing tattoos the right way, the safe way and don't worry about the morons!
wait, what?
LOUD NOISES!
i never took an apprenticeship. i wanted one, but no one would bite.
They probably heard about that toenail thing Dez...scared em off!!
it'll scratch dat itch.
tattitude, gotta chill. Who give a flying @#% about scratchers and ebay e-books? At this point information and lessons about the right way to learn are everywhere, if someone hacks on someone thats theri karma, worry bout yours. Success is the best revenge. that is, stop surfing and worrying about hacks, and if you are going to, get your anxiety out with art. But really, if you ask me, I could give a #@$ less about e-books and people mad they cant learn tips from this open forum and what not. If someone is serious about the art, then they deserve the time of day...
Ack, the short answer is: never. Natures funny that way, but whatever. If we all push in the right direction together long enough, though, there will be fewer and fewer.
not everyone can get an apprenticeship to learn this art of tattooing some people want to learn any way they can some will give up after a short time some will stick with it i have been reading and trying to learn for about a year and a half bought equipment practice with fruit fake skin and just plain old pencil and paper but still have only ever tattooed real skin once and that was my own still not perfect on skin so will go back to practice on other things untill mabe someone can show me the ropes .but i wont give up. and the first piece of equipment i bought was an autoclave. point is i want to learn but not hurt anyone in the process.
Man, don't sweat it ebay has for all taste and and moods.
Wow um take some meds my man. Good to see the passion though.
BRILLIANT plug Tattitude! "SO HERE IS THE EBAY LINK THAT GOT THIS STARTED!!!!" ;-)
