Minimum Price: $250 + tax
Roy’s minimum tattoo price is $250 + tax. Final pricing depends on the size, level of detail, and artistic complexity of the design.
Roy can create a small credit-card-sized tattoo starting at $250 or develop the concept into a highly detailed piece valued at $2,000 per session or more. Each tattoo is approached as a custom artwork, allowing the design, technique, and level of detail to be tailored to the client’s vision.
Because every tattoo is unique, Roy does not strictly follow a traditional hourly pricing model. Instead, projects are quoted based on the overall artistic scope of the work.
With over 15+ years of experience, Roy has refined an efficient working process that maintains high precision and craftsmanship while minimising unnecessary tattoo time.
Session Options
For larger or more complex pieces, dedicated session bookings are preferred:
• Half-Day Session (up to 4 hours): $1,000 + tax
• Full-Day Session (up to 6 hours): $1,500 + tax
These sessions are ideal for larger projects such as sleeves, back pieces, or detailed custom compositions that require extended focus and uninterrupted studio time.
Hourly Rate vs. Total Cost
A lower hourly rate does not always result in a lower final price.
For example:
• An artist charging $100/hour might take 6 hours → $600 total
• An artist charging $250/hour might complete the same work in 2 hours → $500 total + You save time.
Experience, efficiency, and technical skill often influence the final cost as much as the hourly rate itself.
Best Approach
Clients are encouraged to request a price estimate and time frame based on their design concept.
If you have a specific budget in mind, Roy is happy to discuss options and develop a design that works within that range while maintaining the highest artistic quality.
