Watch the classic DVD for free! Your next tattoo should automatically be better if you apply the timeless techniques taught by black & gray tattoo portrait master Franco Vescovi.

Here are answers to questions we've gotten...

IS THIS REALLY THE ENTIRE "MASTERING TATTOO PORTRAITS"? 🤯

That’s right! All 3 hours uncut.

THE DVD SELLS FOR $100. WHY DID FRANCO MAKE IT AVAILABLE HERE FOR FREE?

Many artists are now out of work, stuck at home, and miss tattooing. Franco heard many were watching his classic DVD to pass time, so he decided to make it available for all artists. 🙏

WHY IS FRANCO NOT USING BISHOP MACHINES?

It was filmed in 2007, one year before Bishop Rotary was born. Today, Franco would use the Shader WAND for the entire tutorial (including all lining). Learn more about the Shader WAND here: https://bishoptattoosupply.com/products/bishop-wand-rotary-tattoo-machine?utm_source=YouTube&utm_medium=Video&utm_campaign=Mastering%20Tattoo%20Portraits&utm_content=Description%20-%20Shader

IS IT WORTH WATCHING TODAY?

Absolutely! The theory, techniques, and tricks are still as relevant as ever.

WHY DID FRANCO CHOOSE THE ALFRED HITCHCOCK PHOTO FOR HIS PORTRAIT?

“One of the reasons why I chose to do this portrait is it’s got so much to learn from. It’s got glass, wood, hands, buttons, wrinkles, different shapes and textures - this portrait has it all to learn from. You can apply all the knowledge that you learn today to any tattoo. Your next sacred heart or next skull or anything should automatically be better if you apply these techniques.” – Franco Vescovi
