Falk had no formal training before he started tattooing. What he used instead is the kind of detail that makes this story worth hearing on its own, before anything else about him even comes up.

That same instinct to just build the thing himself shows up again in a completely different hobby, one tied to old handheld game consoles and a very specific tabletop card game. What he made out of that combination is not something that existed before he built it.

One video from a content creator changed the scale of this entirely, turning a batch meant for local shops into something Falk never expected. What he tells people who want to try something similar is worth hearing all the way through.
