i have 3 others (spiral on back of right shoulder, cartoon cat on left ankle, my first name in kanjii on my neck). this is the only picture i have up, though

4/25/2006 12:24:20 AM

im thinkin about gettin a yamaha symbol for my tat on the arm somewhere. i ride a yamaha, and although i wont always will i think the symbol is pretty phat, cant decide if i want it filled it red or what not. i know my next bike will be a yamaha as well so it would serve a purpose for a while.. after that it would just look cool

4/25/2006 12:25:22 AM

4/25/2006 12:26:41 AM

^is that one colored brown or just the typical black.

4/25/2006 12:34:05 AM

Black...

4/25/2006 12:34:31 AM

how much do tats run, i know it's based on size etc let's say i wanted that one the size of a coke can top.

there is a minimum charge
usually ~$40/$50

be sure to tip

4/25/2006 12:39:35 AM

^yeah that's an obvious one. my buddy got a 300 dollar tat done didnt tip hahah i was like u idiot.

4/25/2006 12:41:02 AM

depends on the colors, and who you go to.

I got the one on my arm at NY Adorned where they charge $180/hr,

but down at Dogstar in Durham, they just sorta give an estimate.

for black only, size of the top of a can, i'd say $60-70 maybe, and yah, do tip

is blue flame ok?

4/25/2006 12:45:05 AM

89% hepatitis free

4/25/2006 12:52:41 AM

haha where is a good place to go?

4/25/2006 12:53:44 AM

from my experience Blue Flame does a fine job. The tattoo above was my first and they did a good job of giving me what I wanted. as mentioned above, be SURE to tip. and make sure you get something you won't regret telling your grandkids about.

where to go depends on what style youre getting. you seem like a douchebag, so you can just go anywhere to get your gay tattoo.

4/25/2006 1:01:04 PM

^yah got me there

4/25/2006 1:25:05 PM

i was thinking about getting something original like, say, a zombie jesus tattoo. where could i go to get that?

4/25/2006 1:47:15 PM

cut off blasphemour's arm

4/25/2006 1:52:57 PM

classic

4/25/2006 2:15:42 PM

why the fuck would you tip

it's not like they're making an hourly wage or anything

they charge based on what they're doing

I'm not disputing the fact that it's social etiquette to tip a tattoo artist I'm just saying that's a stupid fucking system

4/25/2006 2:24:05 PM

w3rd

4/25/2006 2:40:57 PM

I mean if you don't want to go back, don't tip or whatever.

But multiple sessions, hell yes you should tip.

4/25/2006 2:48:55 PM

yeah they might pull an oops haha

4/25/2006 2:54:31 PM

yeah, i agree that tipping them is asinine, especially if you consider how much tattoos can cost. with that said, what is the standard for tipping? what's a "good" percentage?

4/25/2006 3:15:50 PM

90% is good

4/25/2006 3:22:23 PM

tipping = cheaper rates on next tattoo. Artists usually make 50% of their fee...and basically can charge what they feel fit. if you tip well, you get in good, and get better deals. My artist in CT seriously charges me about 1/2 what the tattoo would cost here.

4/25/2006 3:25:01 PM

mine



clockwork's

4/25/2006 3:41:00 PM

yeah, i love when i'm getting something done and someone is asking for a rate on some flash from the wall, they'll look at the tattoo design, and then look at the person, and quote like $50 more than mine is going for, and its like half the work

overcharging for tramp-stamps and kanji pays the bills i guess
