Mike Devries - Animal Style DVD

Mike Devries is happy to present his new two-disk DVD that really outdoes his previous instructional DVD. This one features: higher all-around quality, more camera angles, better music, and essentially real-time editing. The informative instruction covers topics such as: Photoshop techniques to apply to tattooing, placement, stenciling, set-up, machines, needles, his palette and ink choices, color mixing; and most importantly, up-to-date tattooing techniques that encompass what he does best. In this DVD Mike explains each step as he's executing it, rather than providing voice- overs done at a later time. 

In his opinion, it is much more effective to explain things as he go, as he's in the right frame of mind tattooing that specific piece, which makes it pertinent to that given piece of instruction. This time around he decided to use coil machines, which are a bit more timeless. Mike chose to tattoo a full-color gorilla for this DVD, from start to finish, explaining new ideas and tricks throughout the process. 

Animals, portraits, and realism go hand-in-hand and you can apply many things he talks about in this DVD to what you already know. 

In this particular DVD Mike Devries uses an FK Irons Exactor to render fine detailing on his piece. 

Total running time: Disk 1: 3hours 38 minutes; Disk 2: 3 hours 13 minutes.
