Hip/Thigh. A standard size hip or thigh tattoo (about 1ft in length) will run you about $500 for outline only, or anywhere from $1,500-$2,000 for full color.
Similarly one may ask, is 150 an hour good for tattoo?
150$ is fairly normal for a good artist. A lot of people are always gonna think your tattoo costs too much, because they don’t understand that price represents quality, and that the artist isn’t making 150$ an hour straight into his own pocket.
Secondly, can you get a half sleeve tattoo in one day?
Most people get it done in multiple sessions, it looks fine. You likely wouldn’t be able to sit for an entire half sleeve at once, but it’s good for an artist to come up with the full design before starting on your first session. It’s possible to outline a half sleeve in one session.
