5.0mm Stroke Critical Torque Review

5.0mm Stroke Critical Torque Review

The 4.2mm stroke version of the critical torque has been one of my favorite machines to use since I got it a few months ago. Ive been tattooing alot with it and it has been a great time. Seeing the 5.0mm Stroke of the Critical Torque come out was very exciting to see. I was a really big fan of the Bishop Wand Liner, and this new Critical Torque rivals that in features.
I hope you enjoy the 5.0mm Stroke Critical Torque Review

The Critical Torque is an expensive tattoo machine. I see a lot of beginner tattoo artists asking me "What is the best tattoo machine for lining or for shading?" The answer to that question is not super straight forward tho. Picking what tattoo machine is best doesn't always have to do with the machine, but it has to do with you and how you tattoo.
Not only that.. a tattoo machine could be a $12 tattoo machine and you could still make awesome tattoos with it. Try not to focus on equipment, even tho it is a lot of fun... focus on developing your drawing and tattooing skills. A tattoo machine is not going to make you a better tattoo artist. Learning more about art and the skin will :)
