“I so wish that Dean
Deakyne's instructional DVDs had been available when I first picked up
a tattoo machine. As I've been a professional fine artist for many years,
I decided to try tattooing on my own, thinking...."I can draw and
paint, how hard can it be to tattoo?" I soon found out that without
any guidance, it was very hard indeed.
Then I had the breakthrough experience of watching Dean's
instructional DVDs. Dean actually tattoos
the pieces while you watch and narrates step by step, so
there's no guesswork about what he's doing. Every basic
question I had previously (and many
advanced ones, as well) were answered, from artistic to practical.”

In this DVD, Dean Deakyne takes
you through the steps necessary to create a black & grey
tattoo. Dean shows how to take a simple graphic and add your
own dynamic flare to the design. He then demonstrates the different
ways to make a stencil that can be applied to the skin. With
an in-depth overview of all the equipment needed for the tattoo
procedure, he explains how to properly set up a sanitary tattoo
station. Dean then shows the proper way to set up black pigment
for different consistencies of grey wash. During the outlining
process, he covers a variety of line work from black line and
grey line to blood lining. He then continues with his techniques
for shading using different consistencies of grey wash to give
the work a smooth airbrushed look. This educational DVD is
packed with information that will help get beginning tattoo
artists over the hurdles that they often face in the early
stages of black & grey tattoo work.
