Lately , while shading , I noticed some of my shading is showing the line marks from the mags!! I used a 11mag when i shaded a large piece and i was using the landing strip method, but some of lines show the needle marks?? Any suggestions?? or tips?:confused:

overlapping consecutive circles always works for me

i always shade in circles... if you want the line affect shading just shade in circles but do lil lines coming of the edges and end off it, or you could do the up and down method if you see the lines from doing it side to side, maybe try tighter needles too. i use double stacked mags and they work great :twisted:

hello rickyboy, i've had a similar problem before with new machine set up and managed over come this by speeding up my hand movement at the time then set up the machine a tad slower for the next tat i did.
