Basic
I decided Tattooing some Joker portraits and trying some different things, for when I`m doing Portraits.
Joaquin Phoenix: This is my first time doing a "background" to the tattoo (Left side of the face). I feel like the shading could have gone smoother.
Heath Ledger: This was a complex one to to, because of the scars and blood on the face. I still need to work on tattooing hair, which I find it very hard to do at this point. Also with this one, the full black was strangely damaging the fake Skin.
Jack Nicholson: I decided not to use black at all here, and I just went with 2 cups of black, one had 1 drop and the other had 3 drops. The rest was just water. I feel that using black gives a better contrast and "pushes" that face towards you, which was not achieved with the Jack Nicholson one.
Something interesting I have learned from all three of them, is that having portraits with scars or face painting, raises the difficulty a lot, especially because I had no color added.
Criticism will be highly appreciated as I still am discovering and figuring things out, myself.
