How do I start a project?
To begin, submit your idea, preferred placement, references, and project goals through our application form. We review each submission to ensure it aligns with our focus on large-scale Black & Grey realism.
Do you take every tattoo idea?
We specialize in large-scale realism and custom storytelling. While we appreciate all creative concepts, we prioritize projects that demonstrate a clear understanding of body flow, composition, and long-term longevity.
How much does a session cost?
Costs vary based on the complexity of the design, the number of sessions required, and the specific location. We provide a detailed quote after the initial review of your project concept and references.
How many sessions do large projects take?
Large-scale projects typically require multiple sessions to ensure proper healing and to maintain the high contrast and detail required for Black & Grey realism. The exact number depends on the size and complexity of the piece.
Do you design before the appointment?
Yes. We build the design around your body, flow, and long-term composition. This ensures the final piece is not only visually powerful but also functional and built to last over time.
