Learn Neo-trad Designs for Black & Grey
Black & Grey Tattoos can often be more challenging than working with color, especially in Neo-traditional designs where bold contrast & depth are crucial. Unlike color tattoos that offer a wide range of color temperatures to create contrast, Black & Grey relies on gradients and negative space to achieve dimension and impact.
Color Neo-traditional
Gian dives deep into the art of saturation and color packing, demonstrating how to achieve smooth, solid fills that heal beautifully over time. He shares his personal approach to applying pigment without overworking the skin. His color palette is carefully chosen to create high contrast and striking balance leveraging warm and muted tones to make every element of his neo-traditional designs stand out with depth and clarity.
Bad Photos can Cost you Clients”
"Your portfolio can make or break your career. Glare, reflections, and bad photos can ruin even your best tattoos—and cost you clients. Most top professionals already use polarizers and lighting techniques to keep their work looking flawless online. With Gian Karle, you’ll learn the exact methods he uses to set up his lights, apply polarizers to cut through glare, and even guide clients into the right positions. Present your tattoos at their best, elevate your portfolio, and book more clients with confidence."
“Don’t Let Poor Healing Destroy Your Work.”
"Overworking the skin can ruin a heal—but so can clients who don’t follow the right aftercare. Great tattoos deserve to heal great, yet most apprentices fail to guide their clients properly. In this course, you’ll learn the proven methods top professionals use to prevent complications and protect their art. Good aftercare keeps your work intact, builds client trust, and ensures your tattoos speak for you long after the session ends."
