Hey @everyone - just a heads up that the special $397 launch rate for the Simplified Realism Course will be going away TONIGHT at midnight EST.
The average realism tattoo runs $500+...
Which is why we dropped this discount - to make sure youāre making your money back (and then some) with just one realism tattoo on a client.
Inside the Simplified Realism Course, you will:
ā”ļøImplement our 3 Mag Method with the tattoo techniques youāve already learned to easily recreate all the textures you need to effectively tattoo any design.
ā”ļøLearn where to find good reference images and how to blend them together into a cohesive design, including out-of-focus and scenic backgrounds.
ā”ļøDiscover how to use the two types of realism stencils, as well as how to handle large, multi-part stencils.
ā”ļøGo in-depth with professional tattoo equipment: machine stroke, mixing gray wash, ink recommendations, choosing the right tattoo machine and needles, etc.
ā”ļøTake a look at the theory of tattooing realism ensuring you understand not only what to do, but also why it's done that way. This will make using our 6-step realism formula feel like second nature.
ā”ļøGet a look over my shoulder during full-length tattoos here in the studio, getting a constant heads-up display showing what needles, inks, machines, and voltages Iām using so youāre never in the dark.
If you want to master one of the most popular (and PROFITABLE š) styles in the industryā¦
AND you wanna save $200 before the price goes upā¦
AND you wanna join before the EXCLUSIVE āLIVE CALL WITH BRANDONā bonus disappearsā¦

Hey @everyone - you might already know that inside the new Simplified Realism Course, you will learn how to tattoo realism like a professional by breaking down any design into 6 simple steps using a proven framework.
Butā¦we didnāt mention the bonuses thatāll help you reach that goal *faster.*
Check out what else is included when you grab the Simplified Realism course:
Bonus #1 | š¼ļøReference Libraryš¼ļø
Get references of some of the most-asked-for realism tattoo designs, curated for you by our team of tattoo artists.
Not only will you see what makes a good reference, youāll also save hours of time looking for the perfect photo to build your designs off of.
Bonus #2 | š¤Making References with AIš¤
Because realism relies on recreating a photo exactly as it is, when artists use the same reference photo, they end up with similar tattoos. Using completely unique reference photos means youāre giving your client a tattoo that no one else has.
Weāll show you how to use AI to create high-quality reference images that no one has seen before in a matter of minutes.
Bonus #3 | š·Photography Secrets - How to Photograph Your Tattoosš·
Realism includes lots of detail, and making sure it all shows up in a photo for your portfolio can be difficult. Redness in the skin, glare from overhead lights, and more can all destroy a photo and keep your art from standing out online.
In this bonus module, youāll learn all the industry secrets to capturing professional-grade photos of your work (without the professional-grade equipment).
Bonus #4 | š¤ LIVE Q&A Session with Brandon - LIMITED TIME ONLY š¤
Join a live, tell-all session with Brandon. Get all your questions about realism tattooing, techniques, and challenges answered with direct feedback and personalized coaching advice from Brandon.
This is a LIMITED-TIME Bonus. Only students who join the course *during this launch* will have access to this exclusive bonus. After that, this bonus will disappear for good.
If you wanna get the Simplified Realism Course PLUS the awesome bonuses that come with it, make sure to grab it now because weāve taken $200 off just for the launch.
But that ends SATURDAY at midnight ESTā¦
So donāt miss your chance to get the Simplified Realism Course for less:

For a long time, I was the ātrad guy.ā I did a ton of Traditional work, and then eventually Neo Traditionalā¦
Thatās sort of what my clients knew me for. So, thatās what they usually asked for from me.
And I love those styles, so I always took on those pieces.
But I also spent a long time working on my realism skills. So I really enjoyed switching it up whenever someone wanted that style - or even a combo of realism and another style (which I did in a Hanya mask/snake collab tattoo with one of my private coaching students a while back).
Once we started filming the Simplified Realism Course, I had several Tattooing 101 students who were comfortable having a camera on them while they got tattooed offer up their skin (thanks guys) so I could film a bunch of live tattoos for it.
After I was done, I posted those tattoos to my own personal Instagram...
And I started to get more and more people asking about realism tattoos.
I know thatās partly because a lot of my clients follow me onlineā¦
But I know itās also because realism is the most popular tattoo style out there. And once people know you can do good realism tattoosā¦
Your books can fill up pretty quick.
If youāre looking for a good way to break into the industry and start building a client listā¦
Coming in hot with some amazing realism tattoos is a good way to do it.
If youāve been hesitant to give realism a tryā¦I definitely get it. From the outside looking in, itās an intimidating style (especially if you feel like you donāt have the knack for drawing realism).
But, if you know how to break down a photo into simple steps and tattoo it that wayā¦
Things get a whole lot easier.
I show you exactly how to do that in our new Simplified Realism Course that we just dropped. And because itās brand new, weāve knocked 200 bucks off the price for a few days.
Make sure to grab it now >> learn.tattooing101.com/sp-l-simplified-realism-couā¦
