I designed a wing set with some Latin text, it will span my shoulder-blades, and it will be in black and gray. Does anyone know around how much this will cost?
Any help is appreciated!

Tattoo shops all vary in prices. Some have an initial set price and work up from there. Some use a graph system or take into consideration how much detail and color to determine their price.
I want to get a phoenix bird and originally had wanted it between my shoulder and elbow but not the full length, maybe about 3/4, and was quoted with the graph system at $300 Canadian.
Your best bet would be to check out different shops and ask them personally. At the same time you'll get a feel for the place and see how clean they are and if you like their work. Don't just go for the place that's offering you the best price if you don't feel comfortable with the environment or person that will be doing it. It's better to pay a little more for the safest experience and best quality tattoo.

Go and ask the artist IN PERSON because thats the only way you'll know for sure. Talk with them a bit and they'll be able to set you straight on a price. Don't take the cheapest you can get because chances are you'll wind up with a flawed tattoo.
Price is varied by exact size, amount of ink, detail and skill required and how much time it'll take. All shops have a minimum, but not really a maximum.

well, depending on the size of the letters the price will vary. most shops charge between 15-20$ per letter. it could burn a whole in your pocket. some shops charge a flat rate for the size. you might be looking at a lot of money... i'd say no less than $ 300. i got this stupid skull tattoo that's like 3 inches high and 2 1/2 across and it was $100. and it sucks

My boyfriend is a tattoo artist, he says something like that would probably be $300.
All shops are different though. Some base it on the size of the tattoo, the amount of time it will take, or both.

Usually they will run about $100 bucks an hour. there is a trick to it though... the less detail and more filling in they do the faster it goes and cheaper it is. so big tattoo doesnt necessarily mean big bucks. usually its just the ammount of time the artist puts into it you get charged for.

It all varies from shop to shop... state to state... your best bet is to go to the shop where you would get this and ask for an estimate...
