Custom tattoos mean a unique take on the character you desire, one that isn't present in the anime, manga, or video game. I draw each design from scratch, starting with blocking out the body and ending with expanding the color palette in a more realistic style.
I'm glad that someone else's art caught your attention, but in order to create a unique tattoo, I cannot, will not, and shall not copy from any other artists. Their tattoo is theirs, and yours should be uniquely your own.
The simple answer is no. Including more characters means less space to focus on each one, and it reduces the likelihood of the tattoo staying bright and bold throughout the years. Therefore, I try to limit it to a maximum of one character. The exception to this rule is for individuals with larger body parts, such as thighs and half sleeves, where a maximum of two characters may be considered.
I primarily work with arms and legs as they have proven to be the best areas for healing. Stomach, groin, and feet are not my main focus.
Simply submit a form, and you're all set! For those who are traveling or attending conventions, keep an eye on my Instagram. I will announce any changes to my bookings, conventions I'm attending, or any specials I may be offering through that platform.
I start all of my appointments at 11 A.M., and that day is completely dedicated to you and your tattoo. When you book with me, you become my one and only priority.
Anime and Video Game portraits are my priority and specialty. Although I rarely take on other subject matters, I do occasionally consider them.
No, I do not charge drawing fees. Personally, I believe artists who do charge them are scammy. My thought process is, "I'm going to have to tattoo whatever I draw anyway, so why would I charge extra to do my job, which I'm already being paid for?" It's like ordering a muffin and paying the baker extra to include the eggs needed to make it.
However, I do require a deposit of $200. This deposit is not a separate charge but rather part of the entire price of the tattoo. Once we agree on the design, date, and placement, I will send you a link to pay the deposit. The deposit is nonrefundable, as it compensates for the loss of work if you do not show up for your appointment.
Yes! I allow changes to character choices with at least 72 hours' notice and appointment changes with at least 24 hours' notice. In case of emergencies, this is subject to the timing of the situation.
I do not tattoo full character bodies (as the details do not heal well) or underage characters in sexually suggestive positions or fashions. Additionally, I do not tattoo just parts of a character, such as a face in a kunai or only the eyes. It's not that I couldn't execute these designs, but they don't align with the goals I have for my brand of tattooing, which is to provide my clients and those interested in my work with complete character representations.
Also, I avoid tattooing characters that have only one or two stances in the manga or anime. Regardless of how many people ask, I can only tattoo Shenron or Itachi so many times before they all start looking the same.
Yes! In the past, artists were often told that darker skin would "eat" color. However, more and more artists have started to challenge this notion and develop new techniques to successfully create color tattoos on individuals with darker complexions. While it may not show well in photography, more than half of my clientele, as of now, have successfully received and healed color tattoos.
Cover-ups are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Please inquire about cover-ups when booking, and we'll determine if it is something that can be covered or not. If you have any skin conditions, please provide that information when booking as well.
Yes to both! The best way to find out about those is to visit my Instagram (link on the home page) and check out my latest stories/posts/highlights. Also, if it's a character I REALLY want to do, I will work on prices. I also offer free tattoos from time to time. I'm also working on a way to add my predrawn designs without people being able to steal them.
