$$tattoos$$?

how do you get a black/grey value scale in tattoos?
is it mixing black and white or wut?

  1. you can do that, although i dont think that will come out as well.
    Most tattoo artists when wanting to make different shades of grey just dilute the black ink with water. That gives the appearance of shading (the lighter the color gets, the less noticible and so forth). If you mix white with it there is a chance the color wont stay as well over time, and also it will be much brighter looking and not realistic.
    I have many friends who are tattoo artists and they all just dilute the black to make the different shades.

    goodluck
