Exactly the area I was talking about. Felt like I was getting cut openThe wrist right on the vein hurts most, personally...especially with deep outline/dark shading. Good thing it’s only a small area so ppl won’t pass out. Elbows and armpit area hurt too.
If you lay in your side it can go numb. That’s what I did until the arm went too numb
How ya'll just telling me this, got my inner bicep in a few weeks.

A variation of St. Michael similar to this album cover on my left bicep/shoulder.
Betts, me too. I wanna lose my tattooing virginity
How much was your Mayonaize tat? I am trying to get something done by him since he’s in LA next month. Also does your tatt say something?
His U.S. pricing is $250 an hour, but that was last year. The piece he did on me was 6 hours. Yea everything he makes actually says something and you can see it once you know what it is.
Up to you. Some people don't tip at all and I've seen some people tip $1000 before. Generally I see people tip $100-$200 for a full day and $20-$50 for smaller sessions or pieces. Also all that changes depending on if they're hooking you up or not.
Damn. That’s like $50 more an hour than I wanted. Was hoping the tattoo I wanted was like $1000 but looks like in the ballpark of $1500. I have to even fly to meet him so this is looking at $2k for everything.
That still applies but depends on the artist rates. No ones tipping 20% on an artist that charges 400 or 500 an hour or even a 3k+ day rate. In the end just tip what you feel comfortable with. That tipping rule mostly applies back then to artist barely making anything and having a large cut being taken out and given to a shop. They depended on it. The rates are higher than they've ever been. All the T.V. shows and Bang Bangs shop in NY have played a role in that. I've had tips refused mostly from artist with private studios. If you're just going to a small local shop then stick to the 20% rule.
