    Hi I'm a beginner and have just purchased the mast archer and am really happy with it , I watched your review on this machine and you are totally correct in saying it is great for a beginner , my tattoo work has come on leaps and bounds with this machine , I previously had a stigma rocket and there is no comparison, dragonhawk certainly make some really good pen machines , thanks for the review helped me a lot .

    The Archer has been great for me, but I’ve only been tattooing for a year. My battery lasts for quite a while. I charge it whenever it’s not in use. The Mast Pro needles have been great with this machine and I like the Big Wasp 1211 RL’s as well. You’re right on time with the wrap technique. I haven’t even used the plastics with it. I have a couple of their coil machines as well. I’m just a beginner so my opinion doesn’t have much weight, but I like the machine. I’ve been getting tattoos for over 25 years, so I’m very familiar with the process. In my experience I would say this is an inexpensive option that performs well. Good video!

    I love watching your informative videos and definitely the review videos. Getting an professionals view point is always great and so thank you for taking your time out to do this for us beginners. With that being said, you started at 93% and ended with 93% battery life. These do charge quick- 2 hours for a full charge and you can also tattoo while charging and so I feel that’s worth mentioning as well. I would love to know what inks you use for deep dark lines and what you recommend for sensitive skin. I have been using Kuro Semi Liner ink and I feel personally I am looking for something darker once it heals fully. Intenze and world famous inks I have used as well on colors. I was going to try the Dynamic ink but I know they went through a bacterial thing with their ink awhile back and was very cautious on trying them. I would LOVE to see a video review on different inks. Also, a tattooing video on doing animals such as a Bear, Lion, Tiger something with fur and lots of shading. An extensive long video showing the entire tattoo process and shading would be FANTASTIC!!!! again, thank you so much for all of your videos. ❤️❤️❤️ much love and respect 💜

    I've owned the mast archer for a little over a year and I must say it's definitely dependable. I've done small and medium size tattoos with it and it isn't bad. It feels decent when holding. I'm able to do some pretty decent tattoos with it. Having said that my only complaint is the battery. Don't get me wrong the battery will for sure get you through a 4 or 5 hour tattoo or about 6 smaller tattoos with one charge. It's very easy to charge as well. Type c charger was very easy to work with. Overall if you are first starting out this is the machine for you.

Since the new 4.2 stroke came out, I purchased one for myself and it’s really good. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⚠️⚠️HOWEVER, the clear purple mast cartridges are absolutely GARBAGE. I recommend not purchasing any cartridges from them what so ever. They literally just SPIT the ink out right away and hold literally ZERO ink in them. I’ve tried to use like 100 of them and every single one acted exactly the same. ⚠️⚠️ The machine is great, but the cartridges are straight up trash. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
