He charges by tat not by hour.. It's going to be about 350 total. I go in 2 weeks to shade..... It was 250 cash in the form of a gift certificate my wife got me and a pair of tires he neededNice start. The line work looks good from what I can tell. The true test will be the shading and overlay. Can't wait to see more. What's he charging you per hour if you don't mind? I'd guess that would be closer to a $500 tat.
