    ok, i know some shops charge by the hour, and others by the size of the piece. how much would i be looking at spending for an angel with outstretched wings covering my chest? what would be an average price? what do you all pay/charge?

    Dude man, there’s so many variables that we can’t really give you anything better than an educated guess. I mean, it depends on the detail, the colors (including the grays if it’s a b&w), the size, and how long your artist is willing to sit.

    For a piece that size though, you’re most likely not going to get away for under $1000.

    The shop I go to has a “base price” of $120 an hour.

    But I’m sure that varies A LOT from shop to shop and depending on where you are at.

    Like Knighthawk said it really depends on detail, color(s), size, mood of the artist that day, weather conditions, price of the tea in china, etc., etc..

    if its a unique piece drawn up for you then i suggest not posting it up….. any images posted are normally stolen and used elsewhere, only post it up once you have had the piece done, that way you know it is only on yourself.. 😉

    In the US of A, it is legal to immediately and brutally murder the son of a bitch that steals your custom tattoo design.

    I’ve already racked up four kills over my “I Feel Pretty” ink.

    Hi Apostle

    KH is not joking – he is known in the underbelly of serial killers as ‘Pretty Killer, (all killer and no filler)’ to his face and (smiley behind his back).

    Currently wanted by interpol it is alleged that as well as taking out tattoo thieves he is wanted in connection of the following;

    The aiding and abetting in the disappearance of Lord Lucan.

    The White Chapel Murders – they wrongly pinned on an innocent named Jack.

    His involvement on a certain grassy gnoll shooting.

    The leaking of the Area 51 information. (Yes he was the one who shot the alien for trying to probe him).

    He is currently believed to be masquerading as an art student – weeding out potential victims who have been known to have the practice of wearing flash tattoos. This he considers the second sin of tattooing (the first is stealing custom designs).

    😀

    Take Care

    A ha ha ha.

    Bravo, Matthew, bravo, but do you really think anyone will believe your wild accusations?

    Do you really expect these good people to believe you would out such a dangerous man without going to the authorities first? Such an action would be suicidal at best. Even an English man should be able to follow the chain of logic thus presented.

    Also, consider this: to such a killer, wouldn’t someone in your current position be not only a witness, but possibly also a mercy killing?

    Love. Peace. Metallica.
