Ive gotten alot better since those, without paying any of the ego-filled artists we have in this area.
That's fine that you don't want to pay. Just tattoo yourself then. Stop putting your crappy work on others so they have to pay to get it fixed. Those tattoos you posted are absolute garbage and the photos show that. I've let apprentices tattoo me AFTER they've learned the basics. Those tattoos you've posted show that you STILL haven't learned the basics of tattooing and shouldn't even be putting a machine in your hands.
