Re: how much do you have invested in tattoos?
right upper arm $75 originally $50 touch up a few years later by another artist
$100 for left forearm
$125 for right forearm(someone paid for this for me though i didnt pay
)
So less then $500 but my cost will be up there when i have the money, got my next tat idea picked out already

Re: how much do you have invested in tattoos?
oh god i don't wanna know... I have well over 30 hours in my left arm, and after 3 or 4 more sessions i will have a similar amount in my right arm. I'm in the chair every Sunday for a few hours until both arms are done.
Then I'm going to do my whole back, I already have the artwork sorted out. I'll probably go in every 2nd Sunday for this to spread it out a bit more
By the time I'm done it'll be well over 10 G's for sure... might even be close to 15

Re: how much do you have invested in tattoos?
i think not. my artist is my buddy so i tip the **** out of him. he doesnt charge me much for the work but i hook him up fat on tips. for example that time bomb with all the color took 3hrs(design/outline/blunt/color). he charged me $200 and i tipped him $200. most good artists are $100 an hour. anywhere else that would have cost me $300 plus a good tip =400. this way my artist loves me, he does good work for me, and i get in whenever i want. i pay what i think **** is worth. im not a cheap ***. 
and it may have been around $900-$1000. i cant remember how much i tipped him on the others.

Re: how much do you have invested in tattoos?
I went back and looked after I wrote that and saw that the ones on your forearms and the bombs are the only ones with any real detail and I guess that would cost some money. What do the bombs signify? My initials are TnT I have it tatted across my stomach but was thinking about something to signify like a bomb or a dynamite stick.
