tattoo people who use AI

How would you feel if you shelled out over a thousand dollar for “custom” tattoo work just to find out your artist was using AI generated slop?!

Tattoo artist that will do Minors

Dose anyone know of a tattoo artist or apprentice in VA that will do me, I don’t have parental consent. I know people usually think down on this kinda stuff but it’s a tattoo that I’ve been wanting for years.Trust when I say I have thought this out. I want to get it before my senior year starts or preferably before July. Even if your a beginner and not a legal tattoo artist long as you have tattooed people before and can show me your art or work book I’m kinda fine with it this is definitely for the plot even though this is something that I’ve been wanting forever. So I’m willing to be spontaneous so if anyone has any friends or you that need some more experience tattooing I’m here. I’ll also attach the pic of the tattoo that I want so ppl know what they are getting in to.

NYC tattoo prices for a small fine line piece, what's reasonable?

Trying to do a sanity check before I book. I've been quoted anywhere from $200 to $700 for what's essentially the same small fine line tattoo (under 2 inches, single session, simple linework).

What did you pay recently and was the artist worth it? I don't want to pay for hype but I also don't want a discount shop result. Curious what the actual midpoint is in NYC right now.

Tattoo Artist Recommendations

Hi guys! I’m looking for recommendations on a local to the GNO tattoo artist, the guy I’ve been working with let me know he won’t be able to finish the full sleeve (currently half) that we’ve been planning for a year. Absolute respect to him, but I’m hoping y’all can help me find someone to help match the style and then finish the concept!

Addendum: The wave is not supposed to be Poseidon’s cock.

First tattoo ever! By Bobby @ 3rd Eye Tattoo in Sharpsburg, Ga.

After years of wanting a tattoo but not really knowing what, I got one, and I love it. 40/M. Dunno if I'm going to get more. But Bobby did an incredible job IMO, and I am completely pleased. It took right around 4 hours! Let me know your thoughts.

Make this a sketch

Hello! I'm wondering if anyone can make this into a sketch for a tattoo? Will post a photo in the comments that's almost what I'm looking for, but still a little off. If anyone could help me make it a reality, I'd greatly appreciate it
