Great For Entry Level - Great For Lining Development - Great For Practicing On The Go - Great For Muscle Memory - Great For Stability Development - Great For Those Who Want To Progress The Tattoo Journal is designed for the pre-tattooing phase. What that means is that I have created this journal to practice before we ever pick up a tattoo machine, although tattooers alike can still use The Tattoo Journal and potentially benefit from it as well. My goal for The Tattoo Journal is so we can begin to establish a sense of discipline, the type of discipline we will be needing to have a successful tattooing career. Not only do I feel we can gain a sense of discipline I also feel like The Tattoo Journal can be very useful to help us pinpoint our weaker creating areas early on before we ever start tattooing. This is great so when we actually start tattooing we can already be a bit more aware of line creating directions we are comfortable with. Furthermore I feel The Tattoo Journal can be great to help us establish a sense of holding posture and style before we ever pick up a tattoo machine. Overall pulling line after line after line after line can only benefit and allow us to become more comfortable creating clean, consistent, saturated lines. Although we are not lining with actual tattoo gear some of the key fundamentals that we may learn in The Tattoo Journal can be translated and carried over to our tattooing when it comes time to start actually tattooing. There is 120 pages with repetitive lining exercises because lining in tattooing is a very repetitive process that we must learn. All 120 pages include a whopping 7,550 lines 1 must create in order to obtain a certificate of completion. There is a bonus 9 pages at the end that include 59 lines each page which totals to 531 bonus lines that you can choose to do. On each page (not including the bonus pages) you will be greeted with a greeting that can range from a tip to a trick, a short story, a congratulations, or an objective. I put these in there for you to help keep you motivated and inspired while you're creating lines. Avoid pressing down too hard when creating lines as we don't want to make line imprints onto the next page. Happy line creating! (Paper Back Version)
