Let first say this is an excellent forum with so much knowledge and helpful people. I have spent 6 hrs. a day reading all back posts for about 6 days now. Well at 36 hrs of reading I have tore down and rebuilt my machine and tuned to what I consider in my style perfect. Now on to my question about building lines. What exactly are is building lines. I understand the concept but never seen done. Do you use different size needles to get the 2 passes. Or are you going over the same time twice hence the long stroke slower speed ie. Shaders and Color. As to not over work the skin. Thanks to all that answer you guys are top notch.
