What you learn

You learn what to look for in a reference and how to translate it into tattoo work.

Light, shadow and contrast

You work on volume, transitions and separation of planes without losing natural flow.

Textures and fine details

You practice the details that make realism readable: skin, hair, eyes, objects and small textures.

Applied practice

You move through synthetic-skin exercises and real-model work according to the final program.
