What up all, this is my first post here, Just wanna first give a shout out to everyone at AON, I'm a huge fan of all of your work.
But anyway, I have always loved the way tattoos look done with a painterly style like the works of Paul Acker at deep six labratory in Phili. (for those of you who dont know his work, I strongly suggest you check him out at
www.fixedarmy.com) But it got me thinking what techniques he used to achieve that style of realism and painting quality i think it just brings the tattoo from being just a typical tattoo to a serious work of art. I made an appointment with him for august so i can really check out his style but I just wanted to hear some of the talented artists on here's point of view.
Thanks for all the responses
