I'm considering getting tattoo. My first. It will be a portrait. It could possibly be of, say, Kellyanne Conway. I've sent out an initial inquiry to a shop out of state. The artist seems very skilled. I've been told it would take about 4 hours (1/2 day session, including consult). I've also gotten a price estimate. What is a legit price for a lifelike portrait based off the photo below (Just Kellywise's beautiful face)?






While some of the content may be in jest, the question is legit.

They can’t be that expensive.

College football players are apparently “too broke to eat” yet are covered head-to-toe in professional quality tattoos.

The cost in money - nominal

The cost in trashiness - incalculable

Also that's a big arse Kellyanne Conway piece if it's taking 4.5 hours.

Honestly - it all depends on who you go with. 1/2 day tattoo with consultation 500 sounds about right. That, however, is more based on size.

I have one on my shoulder, seemed like a good idea back in the Air Force. Took about an hour, cost me $100 including tip. Half a day is going to get expensive. It’s all relative to the quality though. If you want a cheap one I suggest committing a felony then trading a pack of cigs for one in the slammer
