Killian Moon created these skulls, female and male heads, and full-body proportion guides as an essential part of your digital toolkit. Understanding proportion is a fundamental skill for any figure drawing, but particularly for faces. Based on the ideal proportions developed by Andrew Loomis, one of the great drawing instructors of the 20th century, Killian developed this set of digital construction tools. Like all Tattoo Smart stamp sets, these brushes are designed to compliment the workflow of any artist and be useful for projects of all sizes, allowing enough flexibility to add your own style to the design.In addition to the male and female head proportion guides, Killian included stencil-ready skulls from different perspectives and with variations on jaw position. Use them as the basis for a skull tattoo design or with one of the head grids to understand the underlying structure in your face designs.Tattoo Smart gives you the tools to speed up the process of conceptualizing and rendering time-consuming elements, allowing you to spend more time focusing on the composition of your tattoo design.

This flash stamp set reflects months of America’s work, researching, drawing, and endlessly re-drawing these simple tattoo designs until they made a clean, cohesive set. Before they were Instagram-famous and Pinterest-popular, small designs were often a client’s introduction to tattoos. We have seen them become marginalized, an inside joke of sorts, and we occasionally lose sight of the appeal of a small tattoo. With this set, you can cater to your walk-in clientele with their requests immediately on hand. Better than the designs they’re coming in with on their cell phones, this set includes stencil-ready images that can be customized for each client.

Update: Dave recently completed the highly anticipated Battle Damage Volume 2 brush set. The second volume includes the new texture shaders, spray can splatter and brushes, and fur textures Dave created to complement his workflow and allow for an incredibly wide range of fully rendered digital designs. The two sets together, Battle Damage Volumes 1 and 2, represent the full set of natural media brushes Dave believes to be the foundation of any digital artist's toolkit.Dave Tevenal is widely-known as an incredibly prolific artist, possessing an unending work ethic and a tenacity to seek out the highest quality tools for his craft. In addition to tattooing, Dave has mastered a wide range of physical media, from paint to marker to digital design. It is from that mastery and experience that he crafted this set of Procreate brushes for Tattoo Smart, and we are proud to have collaborated with him to bring you these tools.

In his early forays into digital media, Dave tested stock and custom brushes for Procreate and found them fundamentally lacking. Not surprisingly given his obsessive pursuit of quality, he chose to develop his own Battle Damage brush sets.

Battle Damage 1 and 2 by Dave Tevenal are designed to make your digital designs look fully hand-rendered. Dave meticulously created these natural media brushes from the ground up, starting with high-quality scans and photos of fine art paper and physical brush, marker, pen strokes, and spray can splatter. He designed custom grain source and nib images, experimenting and perfecting each brush. The result is an incredibly flexible set of tools for Procreate that mimic the small paper bleeds and grain texture of physical media, and produce designs suitable for a wide variety of applications, from art prints to tattoo designs.

Covering a wide range of lettering styles, these brushes will immediately improve your free-hand lettering technique. Josh Tucker has included his favorite tapered liner brushes for quick drafting, as well as an oval liner that mimics a sign painted look. The calligraphy brushes in this set include texture and angle variations that are not pressure sensitive for a smooth consistent shape to your letters. Use the two- and three-line brushes, as well as the angle grid brush, to keep your letter shapes and sizes precise. The marker brushes in the set recreate your favorite chisel and permanent markers in digital format. Reflecting his preference for darker styles, Tucker designed gothic, jitter, whip shade, and black metal brushes with maximum texture and sharp tapering, allowing you to build up the design as the brush does the tedious work for you.Tucker also created 9 variations on filigree stamp brushes to include in your lettering designs. These stencil-ready stamps can be used as-is, stretching or skewing them to fit your design, or as a template for your own filigree ornament drawing.Quickly draft freehand designs for your client, build texture and experiment with lettering styles, and create clean, consistent digital lettering designs with the Hand Styles and Lettering brush set by Josh Tucker.

Now available: tatTOONS Vol. 1 by Frank La Natra stamp set + eBook! Implement Frank's lessons right away with his character design stamp set for Procreate and Clip Studio Paint. 

Frank La Natra is one of those rare talents that could've easily been scooped up by Disney or Pixar to help make the next Toy Story. Instead, he chose to focus his energy on the craft of tattooing, and we're lucky he did. Every single one of Frank's animation-influenced character designs are a study in conveying emotion, depth, and story. In an effort to share his knowledge with his peers in the tattoo community, Frank La Natra is now offering a LIVE seminar at various conventions across the USA and beyond. During this 4 hour class he details the fundamental building blocks for designing great characters.

This eBook is the visual companion to Frank's Fundamentals of Character Design workshop.  It contains most of the images and graphics that support the discussion during the LIVE class.

If you were fortunate enough to be present for one of Frank's LIVE workshops, you would be able to hear all of the great detail that a verbal discussion with Frank provides. Some day, we hope to bring you a video recording of one of those LIVE workshops so you can get the full picture that Frank is trying to convey. 

However, when we saw the fantastic illustrations that Frank had created for his Character Design seminar, we knew we had to compile them into an eBook and make it available on its own through Tattoo Smart.

This brush set was created with the intention of having everything you need to render a henna or lace style design from start to finish. It’s great for drafting up quick ideas and concepts for your clients in minutes. With a little practice, you could easily create a stencil-ready line drawing with these brushes alone. This set includes a single and a double liner, template stamps of some common henna shapes that will get your design started including a paisley, some leaf shaped center pieces, and some mandala-esque flower stamps. From there, you get into the repetitive, linear pattern work that the eye instantly recognizes as the henna aesthetic. There is a multitude of these that make up the bulk of the set, largely inspired by nature, these patterns mimic various leaves, petals, ferns, peacock feathers etc. Ornamental, jewelry and chandelier inspired imagery are also included. There is even a brush that rapidly creates the “hanging beads” you often see at the bottom of underboob tattoos. Finally, there are several filler pattern brushes for blocking in larger areas, perfect for the “fishnet” areas in lace designs as well as henna.All of the brushes in this set make great use of Procreate's snap to line feature (holding your Apple Pencil to the screen for a couple of seconds after the line is done snaps it perfectly straight).  That feature combines with these brushes to accurately recreate the “stacked rows of patterns” look that henna designs often contain, and the brushes all work well on curves too.

"I designed these body part layouts after taking a sculpting course and studying the planes of the body and écorché* model. After years of laying out tattoos for 3-dimensional human bodies on 2-dimensional surfaces, it occurred to me, that the true surface of the varying shapes of the body were not being taken in to account. The future of tattooing will be designing tattoos on 3D turnarounds. These sheets in this book were designed as the beginning process of that evolution.

To aid in the tattoo design process, I’ve included multiple views of the human body, unwrapped and flattened out as it would be in a tattoo illustration. Prominent skeletal and muscular landmarks are indicated to assist the tattooist in considering the flow and fit of their designs. I recommend you start by producing a few quick thumbnail sketches on the smaller body plane diagrams and then proceed to a more detailed rendering once a plan has been established." -Gunnar Gaylord
