  1. Just to chime in with my 2 cents - I'm not a huge fan of watermarks but there's an increasing need with the way sites like Tumblr et al are going. At least if there's a watermark then people are aware of who made the image. As someone mentioned above this especially applies to tattooers and illustrators (like myself). The people that are totally blasé about this like the people Hyena mentioned, are very very rarely 'creators' - because if they were then they'd realise that the things we work hard to create aren't just worthless pixels on a screen but something that blood, sweat & tears have gone into - so therefore, at the VERY least, should be credited correctly.
  2. Hey guys, I really like this guy, who tattoos out of Shangri-la in Shoreditch - Flickr: lyam's Photostream. His work reminds me of old school etchings. I'll check out the names above, I have heard of Frith St Tattoo before. Still reading up on different artists, there's so many! You can see my work here Kenn Goodall / illustration & art and also blog type thing Kenn Goodall How did you all decide on your first tattoo? Big question I know :)
  3. Hello. I am an artist and illustrator from London, UK. I have no tattoos yet, but I have been fascinated by them since I was little. I think 2011 is going to be the year I made the plunge!:cool:
  4. Hello, I would recommend buying a what they call a watercolour 'block', which is sheets of watercolour paper glued on the 4 sides. This means you don't have to fanny about stretching paper. I personally love Arches Aquarelle hot press paper, it's smooth and pretty heavy, works great with watercolour. For blending try wetting the paper with water first, then using layers of thinly mixed/watery black over the top of each other. Good luck!
