thanks chucho. i only charge $100/hr and rarely do i work by the hour. i usually just quote pieces straight up. i'm a very reasonably priced tattooer. you could actually say i shoot myself in the foot daily with the prices i give. i'm ok with it if it keeps me working though because i just love to tattoo.

that rose was $60 for that original spotty outline from that other shop... my minimum is $60. so i fixed that rose for a mere $20 over my minimum. anywhere else would've charged at minimum $150 to fix that rose but i'd wager they'd charge more like $200-250.

No one puts Fckn paint or scars on my body except accidents. Preferably outdoor encounters/accidents with giant fish.


The above being stated I could never get close to having the patience or creativity or dexterity to ever pull anything off like a snake or a rose or say o to my little friend.
Way too difficult.

The thing with a tatto is when ya think it's a great idea and know the ones ya want, you won't always be that person. You will change, but not that tattoo.

I always see tattoos as trying too hard.

Stupid is having them on your neck, face which tells a potential employer you're an idiot.

You see tattoos as a way of separating those of age and those you can molest.

[FkLA]

KDub honing those skills imo.

I'm not a tattoo guy, but I'm always impressed by accurate looking portraits, and that one is nice. Props.

So I guess tattoo artistry has not reached the impressionistic level.
So you can't get a bad tattoo and explain away the deeper meaning.
Well that sucks.

why do you always feel the need to come in and be this pseudo-voice of wisdom talking down to everyone else? So ing what if they like tats, or where they put them, you had sex with underage bar girls in Vietnam. Girls forced to take part in the tourist sex trade.. Let that sink in a second.

Don't throw stones you sick mother er

Pass.

But it does honestly seem incredibly difficult.
And that definitely looks like Al.
I bet really black people are difficult. I guess white ink or whatever... I don't know wt I'm talking about here.

Anyways, I could not do that with all the lessons in the world, even on a flat sheet of paper.

you know, van gogh isn't my taste but whatever. painting a van gogh vs tattooing one is a whole 'nother ball game.

as well, when it comes to darker skin it's def a challenge. you have to think more simple though... for ex; a black & grey piece would normally take 4-5 ink caps of differing tones vs 2-3 ink caps for darker skin. fun nonetheless!

it's def not easy working on people; thin skin vs tough skin, old skin vs young skin, dry skin vs oily skin, pain tolerance, placement, etc... tons of variables involved even for the smallest of tattoos.
