How to Tattoo a Colour Illustration Tiger With Veda Ink | Tattoo Tutorial
We had the pleasure of visiting the incredibly talented Veda Ink, also known as Karina, for an exclusive tattoo tutorial showcasing her mesmerising colour illustration techniques. Karina brought her signature style to life with an extraordinary tiger design, featuring a vibrant purple palette, a cartoon-inspired strip over its eyes, and dynamic dripping elements at the bottom.
Check out this video for invaluable tips from Karina! She walked us through her colour selection process, crediting much of her knowledge of colour packing techniques, colour theory, and blending to Volkan Demirci, a respected figure in the tattooing community. To achieve seamless blends in her work, Karina tests ink shades side by side on a napkin, then smudges them together to preview how the colours will blend together on the skin.
