How It Works

## PROCESS.

Serious custom work takes planning, trust, and commitment. The process is intentionally straightforward.

01

#### Idea

Submit your concept, placement, approximate size, reference links, and the meaning or direction behind it.

02

#### Consultation

Billy reviews the request first. If the project is a fit, his team will contact you directly to coordinate a consultation and align on scale, style, and body flow.

03

#### Deposit

A non-refundable deposit secures the project. No tattoo appointment is confirmed until the deposit is received.

04

#### Design

The design is developed as part of the process and may be shown on the day of the appointment.

Planning a custom backpiece

Large Scale

### DESIGNED FOR THE BODY.

Large pieces are not just collections of images. Flow, negative space, contrast, and the way the piece wraps the body all matter. That is why artist direction is part of the process.

Come with a serious idea. Be clear about what matters to you. Then leave room for the piece to become stronger.

FROM VISION TO SKIN.
