Re: stable inks
did you read the rest of the post? There's a ton of opinions. I tried it once and didn't like it all that much, too thick for me too. But everyone has to make up their own minds, i'd avoid the set and just get a few bottles of the colors you think you'll use the most often to try it out, that way if you don't like it you're not wasting a ton of money.

Re: stable inks
with all the new ink on the market it's hard to say what's best. i buy inks from like 5 or 6 different companies. each one has something i like or dislike. don't be afraid to buy tons of colors. if you concern is money, buy sample bottles. if you like em' go ahead and get the bigger bottle. opinions and assholes bro, everybody's got em'.

To me, it doesn't matter what kind of ink, machines, needles, etc. you use. The first priority needs to be on the artistic side. You have to train your eye to see exactly where the shadows should be and where they shouldn't be when you first look at something. It'll take a bit of practice... lots of drawing. Look at real things, like a stuffed animal or a lamp or have a person pose for you. Draw them. Look at where the shadows are. You'll see that when a mouth is open, there's always a shadow towards the back of the mouth. Unless someone is in front of them shining a light in their mouth for whatever reason. Things like that.
Like I said, it'll take a lot of practice but it's definitely something you absolutely have to learn if you want to get good. I'm not a great tattoo artist yet by any means but I like to help with the artistic side when I can. Hope that helps.
