His books could be closed. Some of these dudes are booked out months in advance.

Did you call or e-mail?? Best bet is to call or go to the studio. That way at least you know where you stand.

Anyone know what good artists charge in the bay area per hour?

Anyone know what good artists charge in the bay area per hour?

$150-200. Of course all that is relative cause it depends on their speed and the project they are doing. I thought my first tattoo took long to do which was like 6-7 hours for an arm piece. My shoulder has been like 20+ hours at $180 and technically, I am still not done. But I've seen guys hammer out tats fast which makes the hour pricing actually affordable.

It amazes me how many people put penises on their bodies.

Just need some touch up and shading and I should be done with the lower part of my leg, and now I think I just want to finish it all up.

Finally went to see my artist in Italy, the most pain ever. The ankle, shin and calf were excruciating. He told me we couldn't do color now because I healed too fast [emoji]128533[/emoji] so I gotta make another trip. What do ya do for swelling? Artist is Cristian Sacrumcor

The wages of sin tattoo in GTA V looks pretty sick.

I love the design of the skull so much that I haven't stopped thinking about it and might actually go for it!

^^^ I like that, but personally, I would rather have it upside down from that view as most of the time people will be looking at it from behind. To me it will look awkward as my arm rest to be upside down from the viewer.

I still would have it upside down from that view .... Preference I guess ...

 

[grizzlyboy]

I would as well.

For those with rib tattoos or pieces that cover the sides of their torso, was there any special prep you did before starting it?

Also, I do a little bit of manual work in my many duties at work. Would you recommend I take a couple days off to heal the area?

 

[Platinum State]

How many hours did your tattoo take?

 

[baltimoregutta]

Less than 2 hours. I got there at 3 pm, he didn't start sketching it on me till 3:30 pm, or so. It was wrapped up by 5:30pm.
