sparkling water sir? i know of your innovations with machines but i've never heard of the sparkling water technique... is there a science behind it or does it just work? haha... probably getting to much into the technical aspects so shoot me a pm

Re: ink, equipment, supplies talk.
the gas in the water blends the pigment with the ink in its best form.
Crank the machine in the cap for 5 seconds without messing up and you'll get those bubble crazy working your wash.
and btw I'm just a regular artist, nothing from outside this world.

it's simple really, you're using the machine vibrations and the popping of the bubbles to mix the ink with the water.

Re: ink, equipment, supplies talk.
I've used a lot of different inks. I used the mellenium colors for a little while. Didn't really like the over-all results. They were decent for certain colors but some of them blew.
I personally don't think you can ever go wrong with starbright. They have a lot of colors that just rock. and They're just a well known consistant company.
For my Black I use Dynamic, and Your right its well-priced and goes in easy. The washes you get with them are awsome too.
Iron Butterfly is made by the same guys who make starbright and theyre just as consistant. I definatly recommend Trying some iron butterfly orange, its the brightest orange you can get in my opinion.
Intenze is all-around an excellent company as well, and it's such an easy ink to put into the skin.
However most inks are just as good as others depending on how you apply them to the skin. In the end your composition also has a lot to do with how well colors stand out.

Re: ink, equipment, supplies talk.
Eternals lightning yellow surprised the hell out of me.
It tends to saturate well
Just tattooing with something the consistency of KOOL AID irks me a bit.
Tons of re-dipping to keep it in the tube. Maybe I just got a thin batch????

As far as I can tell it's just that thin, we've gone through several orders of it at the shop, and it's always like water. I f@#king dig it though.
