Yes,the machine just moves the needle up and down and we have to move the machine.I was often asked what can an lmg machine do,my answer was always that this depends on the artist,not so much on the machine

Do you do this for B&G too or just color? Are you essentially just cross hatching until you have the desired saturation?

Last question: What stroke is the machine or does it even matter?

For b&g i use magnum too depending on the size of the tattoo, 3 or 4 mm strokes.About the hand movement, there is no certain way of doing it,it depends on the skin type,place,colour…you have to experiment a lot.I use small groupings because i feel comfortable with them,as you probably feel with magnums.

large area saturation is done daily in prisons using single needles. We as tattoo guys have the tools to do this with more needles, we forget that the basics can be done in other ways.

Im gonna have to try this shit out somehow... i love drawing with mechanical pencils, rather than big ass chalks .... So maybe this will enable me to achieve things i had no ideea i could achieve... I gotta find some test skin, like yesterday !!! Thanks alot for the video !!

Thanks Otto for getting back to me and getting one of these on its way. I'm excited, your machines are always so good.

How did the tattoo look when healed? can you post a healed photo please?
