My first and only tatoo up till now is peacock with one feather on my left shoulder blade. I am thinking of adding more feathers as i grow older since i am only 18 now. For this tattoo, i took in my own design and told them to make it look better since I am not a good artist. I just got this tattoo early april, so it’s been around a…[Read more]

Like you do a waiter, is what I heard once…so 15-20%

I think I went a bit overboard…
$600 piece… 860
$100 piece… 150

But my artist loves me =]
I’m pretty sure I could go in; ask for ink, and get it done with no up-front cost if I really insisted on it.

Thanks!

Peace.

I usually don’t try to stare,…[Read more]

With an asymmetrical design…
I would personally go with your original placement idea.

But $100-200 for sure.

BUT!!!!
Remember to tip your artist handsomely…
If you decide to return to the shop, he/she will probably remember your generosity.

How much would you typically tip the artist?

For the placement, I will also…[Read more]

Take your artist a printout of the original and let them handle the design. The stencil should not take long given that its a simple tattoo.

The price probably isn’t too steep, perhaps an hour or two, but for advice I recommend reading Sherav’s blog, especially the first chapters of his ebook. Check them here: http://sherav.wordpress.com/2009/06/page/2/

Thanks, the ebook is very useful!
