I've got a huge set of prismacolor pencils which I've slowly used over the years. I'm naturally a painter, so doing clean tattoo art has been a bit of a challenge for me.

i used the regular set of 96 colors (and a white verithin for some highlights). i dont use a blender (i just bought one last week for the first time but i dont really like it)...im not quite sure what style it is, but here is what i do (ill use black to blue as an example)... i start with solid black and fade it out, then i take a dark blue and start from the solid area of the black, and fade it from solid to light...i repeat this process with progressivly lighter colors, each time starting at the solid area of the color i used before it

what type of paint do you use? a lot of flash artists do paint their sheets (mostly just watercolor though)

Primarily Acrylic & digital, and occasionally watercolor and oil.
