$300 for something very plain/basic to $1000 for more detailed/intricates
sounds good...so i tell them like a "theme" i want it to be and the design will come out of their mind??? because i want to pay a good amount like $500 and up to get it very detailed and like a theme i want it to be.
 
Hey! You and along wit every other Filipino guy I know is going to have one/has one. Of course it's unique! It IS your family history that no one understand.
 
Do you guys think that Filipino Tribal Tattoos have become a fad? I met my cousin's friend who decided to get a sleeve that had to with Agriculture. He didn't care what it meant, he simply wanted it on because it looked good. I just find it interesting that the past two years or so, I have seen Filipinos rocking a tribal tattoo. What do you guys think?

Yeah it has. 99.5% of the ones you see are all the same. The same designs/patterns and there's always the sun and 3 stars incorporated into it. The real ones don't look as nice but are better IMHO.
I agree. Some guy actually was sensitive and started to raise his voice to me when I questioned him about his tattoos.  He kept yelling how it was part of his heritage and that he is proud of what was tatted on him, yet he had NO IDEA what so ever on what the design meant.  I mean wouldn't you want something that represented YOUR heritage that YOU yourself can relate to? Whether it would be from a province your parents or family is from or something that is near and dear to you? Some of them are nice, but it's slowly becoming a typical fad.

I personally wanted to set up a meeting with Orly to design a type of family crest for my cousins and I after my grandparents died this past year. But yeah...

That sounds good bro, I wasn't pointing the question directly to you. I just wanted to see what people's views are in regards to these tattoos. I like your idea of the design. I too wanted something to represent my family. Good stuff man, if you ever get your work done, post a pic!
 
thanks man...most def ill post a pic but i only got 200 right now so i started saving hopefully i can get it done in good detail for like 500 no more than 7. but im planning to get it when the fball season is over cuz imma play for my jc team. hopefully i can get it b4 my bday in xmas. do you think i should schedule an appointment right now for dec or wait a while and hopefully i can get into that guy orlys waiting list.

You're going to be paying way more than $500 to get your pec and arm covered. I suggest you go to the shop in SJ and set up your appointment. And when Orly gets back you can pay him a visit and discuss your ideas so he can draw it up, then from there, he can also give you a quote for the tat.

P.S. it's a nice gesture to tip your artist
