Electrum Ink - Opaque Gray #3 Tattoo Ink
Product Information
⚡ Opaque #3 – Rich. Layered. Versatile.
The mid-dark gray tone built for depth and shadow control.
Electrum Ink’s Opaque #3 is the workhorse of the 4 Stage Opaque Set. Sitting in that perfect mid-dark zone, it’s designed for building shadows, layering tones, and creating smooth, natural depth. Strong enough to anchor shading but soft enough to stay blendable, Opaque #3 gives artists the control to push their grayscale work without harshness.
Available in: 1 oz and 2 oz bottles
