Black & Grey Realism Tattoo FAQs

  • Pricing depends on the size, placement, level of detail, and time required. At Black Craft Tattoo Collective, we review your ideas and references during your consultation and provide an estimate tailored to your project.

  • Some pieces can be completed in one appointment, while sleeves and larger compositions may require several sessions. Your artist will explain the recommended session plan after reviewing your design and placement.

  • The right size depends on the subject and level of detail. Portraits and intricate designs often need more room to keep important features clear. We’ll help you choose a size and placement that suit both the artwork and your body.

  • Bring clear images of your subject, examples of the style you like, and a photo of the area you want tattooed. For portraits, high-resolution photos with sharp features and clear lighting help us capture the details that matter most.
