Styles

Pick a lane,
or bring the picture.

Most people walk in with a screenshot and a rough idea of where it goes. That is enough to start. Below is what the studio tattoos week in, week out.

01Custom work

Bring a reference or bring nothing. Billy draws the piece before the machine ever comes out, and you approve the drawing first.

02Black & gray

Smooth gray wash and hard black — the bulk of the wall above. Roses, skulls, portraits, memorial pieces.

03Full color

Packed, saturated color that still reads from across a room three years later.

04Traditional

Bold line, limited palette, built to age. The stuff that still looks like a tattoo in 2050.

05Neo-traditional

Traditional bones, deeper rendering and a wider palette — the style most of the sleeve work on this page is built on.

06Japanese

Flow that wraps the limb instead of sitting on it. Planned as one piece even if it takes several sittings.

07Anime & illustrative

Line-led character work, lettering panels and illustrative pieces drawn to your reference.

08Lettering & script

Names, dates, scripture, memorial dates. Spaced and weighted so it stays readable as skin moves.
