I was just glad to have a way to kill time! I have a few of those too. They didn't cost me anything, but then again they dont quite measure up in the quality dept As far as size and coverage, you can get tattoo's this large for a lot less if they are shitty stencils off the wall, but as the level of detail and realism increase, so does the amount of time it takes to do the piece. Most good artists charge around $100.00 - $125.00 per hour (or more) for custom work. Some good ones that are just getting started and trying to make a name for themselves will go lower than that, but you are lucky to find someone like that.__ My mighty steed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
