Gauging Interest: Tattoo Party...

Sup to my Nor Cal people....I am gauging interest to have a tattoo party, my cousin is a tattoo artist (damn good in fact, I have all mine done by him) and I am looking to see if we could get some interest in anyone wanting a tattoo without paying the high shop prices! I am already planning one for other friends and family one day, but he was wondering if I could get more people for a second day! Anyways, post all questions or whatever here...

Date: Looking at the 17th/18th of September
Time: All Day Event
Price: Varies due to extent of tattoo...way less than shop prices tho
Location: Will be in Stockton

Let me know if interested...I will post some examples of his work asap!!

Pics...sorry for the quality, I didnt take them!!


^Setting up getting ready to tattoo the back of my leg at my last party...as you can see he is very clean and professional!!


^Doing the back of my leg...again very clean!! I would show you a pic of what he did but it is not done yet and it would not do it any justice!!


^A Butterfly he did on my Fiance's ankle...most of it was free handed!!


^One he did on my old roomates back...resembles the incubus singers tattoo...


^Another one he did at the party


^A look at some free-hand he did!!


^Another shot...

Again let me know if interested...a really good deal for someone looking to get some work done!!!

How much would he charge me to have the words "Your name" tattooed on my butt??? Cause you know... nothing is as impressive to the opposite sex as walking up and telling them, "You know... I have your name tattooed on my ***"

Just kidding... I can't imagine tattooing my pasty white flesh. If I did, it would be ultra tiny... probably two nurse sharks swimming in a yin-yang design... a tribute to my sign (pisces). I'm pretty wussy though... might be down to go and be there for moral support..

We'll see...like I said, I'm a wuss... I was talking to my brother though who's got a couple of tats and he might want to get one enhanced or possibly covered up. It'd be helpful if you could give me an idea of how much this guy charges, like for some of the tribal type stuff he did in the pix above. We'll see how it goes.

ask your cousin a question for me. does he charge less for fine girls than he would for a guy? i'm almost certain all tattoo artists do but havent asked any before. my little one costs $75 while my ex got one twice as big with coloring and only paid $100 even. that doesnt add up to me

Becca...his prices are really good, the big tribal on the arm I believe was only 75bux...that pic was almost done...had some more shading etc done to it, he would have charged almost 200 in his shop to do the same thing!

I know this answer for a fact...watched him do it! Seen him do it in his shop...charged this hottie a lot less for more work because the tattoo was on her big fake chest!! A great site I might add!! No need to worry tho at the party everyone gets good prices!!!

He used to work at a shop, then owned one, is now on his own building some money to open a better shop! That is why he has parties...on average he pulls about a grand for a nights work, with no shop charges!!

Not much at all bro..probably do it up real cheap! If you shoot me a pic of what you are looking to get touched up or whatever done I can bounce the idea off of him and get an accurate price!

I will be making another post in a couple of days or so with more accurate information including location, time, and a more structured price list so that everyone knows what to expect. In the meantime if anyone has a picture or something of what they want done...feel free to either post, AIM me, or E-Mail them and I can hopefully give you a better idea on a price! One thing he did want me to mention...he doesn't tattoo feet, not clean and wouldnt want someone to get infected or anything like that, just his thing!!!
