The roster
Choose your artist
Every artist sets their own rate and keeps their own book. Your credit is tied to the artist you pick.
No artists match that yet. Try another style or clear the search.
How it works
One clear path from first idea to finished tattoo. You always see your balance, your target and what’s left.
01
Pick your artist
Browse the roster, their flash and their past work. Choose a flash piece or bring your own idea.
02
Set your target
Flash has a set price. Custom work starts with a $20 one-hour video consult to agree a design, estimate and target.
03
Build your credit
$10, $20 or $30 a week, paid straight to your artist. Add a Windfall payment any time to get there faster.
04
Book your ink
When your credit covers the session, your artist’s calendar unlocks. Pick your date and get tattooed.

Questions
Is this a membership fee?
No. Every dollar you contribute becomes tattoo credit with your artist at their posted rate. It’s a savings plan for your next piece, not a club fee.
Who holds my money?
Your artist. Payments go to your artist’s own payment account, and your balance is tied to them.
Does a higher level get me priority?
No. Higher levels just fund your session sooner. The work and the rate are the same.
When does billing start?
For custom work, seven days after your consult is complete and your plan is approved. For flash, when you claim the piece. If your consult moves, billing waits.
What’s a Windfall payment?
Any extra amount you add on top of your weekly level, like a tax refund or birthday cash. It goes straight to your balance.
What if I change my mind?
You can stop future contributions anytime. Options for an existing balance will be spelled out in the program terms. [TERMS PENDING REVIEW]
