Roberto Carlos’ Winning Tattoo at the New York Tattoo Expo

Roberto Carlos is a talented tattoo artist who recently participated in the New York Empire State Tattoo Expo. His experience at the expo was nothing short of amazing, as he won first place in the “Best Original Tattoo” category with a breathtaking design that combined elements of nature, the beauty of a woman, and the Fibonacci sequence.

Before he even started the tattoo, Roberto knew he wanted to create something that was both beautiful and unique. He drew inspiration from his favorite artist, Fibonacci, and used the principles of the Fibonacci sequence to create a design that was not only aesthetically pleasing but also mathematically significant.

To bring his design to life, Roberto used a Cheyenne tattoo machine with a stroke of 4.0. He also used a combination of round magnum and round taper needles, which are known to be the best for tattooing. These tools allowed him to execute his design with precision and accuracy, ensuring that every detail was perfect.

Roberto’s attention to detail and use of shading and color gradients made his tattoo stand out among the competition. The final result was a stunning work of art that impressed the judges and earned him the first place in the category.

Being so committed to your art, Roberto said that he was honored to be among such talented artists and that he was grateful for the opportunity to showcase his skills. He also mentioned that winning the first place was a dream come true and that he felt motivated to continue pushing his boundaries as an artist.

Overall, Roberto’s experience at the New York Empire State Tattoo Expo was a great success. His dedication to his craft, attention to detail, and use of the best tools and techniques available helped him create a beautiful and unique tattoo that earned him the recognition he deserved. We can’t wait to see what he has in store for us next!

Techniques to tattoo without compromising quality

Creating a professional and realistic tattoo takes time, effort and imagination. But is it possible to make a very realistic and detailed tattoo in just 3 days?

The tattoo artist Robert Carlos achieved it and captured all eyes with his design. Inspired by the signs of the universe and the vibrations that our ears perceive towards our path of life.

That’s why he will share the three keys that led him to complete this great challenge.

#1 The machines to use 

To create a tattoo with amazing nuances and textures, it’s important to use the right machines, such as the Cheyenne 4.0 or 7.0, which will allow you to apply shading, highlights and color more effectively.

#2 choose the right technique 

Before getting tattooed, it’s important that you think about the action plan that you’re going to use to finish the tattoo on time and without damaging the skin. Roberto Carlos suggests starting tattooing from the bottom up. In this way the skin will not suffer and you’ll prevent the colors from mixing when tattooing so that they always look bright.

#3 select your action plan

Working quickly isn’t appropriate. It’s important that you think about the skin and how to do it so that it’s not mistreated during the process. To do this, the tattoo artist recommends starting in the form of a pendulum or circle and thus preventing the skin from suffering.

Follow these incredible techniques that Roberto Carlos recommends and participate with confidence in any professional tattoo convention.
