Grath Longfletch - Pearls of Lutra tattoo

Since I knew I was going to be in Brazil again this past week, I had scheduled my next Redwall tattoo to be done while I was visiting São Paulo. I found my artist through searching Sao Paulo botanical tattoo artists because I think their command of color would benefit me. I found Gabriela Dassio to be skilled enough for the job and she loved the idea when I sent her the reference art. I know in the book her she has green fletched arrows, but this reference had blue and I think it contrasts a bit better against her green tunic.

Now I have two heroes on this leg: Martin the Warrior and Grath. Thinking the next will be a villain on the inside of my calf.

Highly recommend going to Brazil for a tattoo AND the experience. Sure, you have to pay for the plane ticket, but the experience of visiting another country and returning with body art is worth it (to me at least).

Machine Shop Service pricing estimates - across the US

I'm working on pricing out my L28 engine rebuild (F54/P79) and I am wondering if anyone has 2026 (or even 2025) prices to post that can assist in my budgeting. I understand regionally pricing will be different as well as shop pricing. Ideally I'd have a midrange to premium pricing built out (Slover's, L-Spec [head pricing listed but not many P79 services listed], Rebello, Godzilla, etc.

What about block services pricing? What are must-dos vs. good ideas if you have the money?

Also trying to decide if I should stick with the OEM bore or overboring, so any assistance on how expensive it will be to bore would be appreciated.

Due to some confusion, I am looking for specific pricing tied to specific services. Examples include but are not limited to:

porting - how much ball park per shop

hot tanking = how much

Overboring = how much
