My main focus is on portraiture. I will always book portrait projects first.

I also enjoy doing animal portraits as well as photo reproductions.

booking

Approximately each quarter, I’ll open my books and review all request that I receive and select the projects that fit my style the best. I will always announce on my instagram page @rustybng when my books are open.

pricing

• I charge $200 per hour and have a minimum of 3 hours for each session.

• I typically work for 3 to 6 hours per day so the average cost is $600 to $1,200 per session.

• The per hour rate is actual tattoo time only. Set-up, drawing, stenciling, breaks, etc are not charged.

• I require a non-refundable, $200 booking fee to set up a tattoo appointment.

For the booking fee, I accept PayPal using my email: 

artbyrusty74@gmail.com -OR- Venmo @Russell-Dornhecker

• I almost always require two or more sessions for a tattoo.

• I’m constantly booked up a few months out so please be prepared to wait a little bit to get your tattoo started.

faq

• When accepting projects I usually look for the ones with fewer restrictions on design. While I like to work with my clients, I like to have the freedom to design a tattoo that I know will look good on the body and be amazing tattoos.

• I’m looking for clients that are dedicated enough to put forth the time and financial investment that is necessary to receive the best possible tattoo.

• Some of the things I don't tattoo are: color, lettering, coverups, reworks, geometric, fantasy, maps, compasses, clocks and comic book characters.

• Due to the overwhelming amount of request, I unfortunately will not be able to respond to every email nor take on every project that is presented.
