checked out your gallery, definitely keep referencing from life.  Always, always carry your sketchbook and pencils and draw every chance you get.  Make it a priority.  As far as the tattooing, try and get into a shop with someone who has been tattooing for at least 10 or 15 years.  The learning curve is so much easier when you have someone whos been doing forever guiding you.  I know you are going to keep tattooing regardless and the best advice there is to keep it small, only tattoo something that will fit under the palm of your hand, it will make it much easier to learn and concentrate on the technical side of things without being overwhelmed by large sizable tattoos that will get you in over your head quickly.
thanks so much, i'm quite new to my tablet, so it'd been nice having people tell me things to draw up for them to start to get the hang of it!
ohohoh! I have an idea for you to draw(: Okay so I'm writing a book right now about a fallen angel... and I'd love to see if someone coud draw a picture of him:D I have a sketch of the backview of him (:
you should send me a picture or an idea of what you'd want him to look like and I would most certainly help you out :)
