The platform allows you to add shaded elements, bringing dimension to your custom design. 🎉
Best Practices for Shaded Designs:
- Use shades that are high in contrast with one another. If the shades are too similar, the differences won’t be noticeable on the final printed design.
- Avoid using large blocks (more than half) of solid black or grey tones in your design. High amounts of concentrated ink can cause ink transfer smudging during application and development.
- Use a full 0-100% range of gradients. More subtle ranges (ex. 30-60%) won't be visible once the tattoo is applied.
Here's what a good use of shading and gradients look like - in action! 👇
