I dont like waiting over the span of weeks or months to get my work finished. I always try to set everything 10 days apart so its finished in usally a month or less.I feel I look lazy and incomplete when I have to walk around with half finished work because the guy who does it likes taking vacations every 3 days and never picking up their phone.

I had to wait on a waiting list for 4 months then I got my outline on 6-10-10 but couldnt schedule my next appointment until 1-3-11 then I had to wait until 8-14-11 to finally finish it. Umm yeah I think I had to wait longer than anyone I know.

Let him finish before you throw a fit because a lot of people wont touch someone else's work

10 bucks says you beg him to stop so you can go lick your wounds

Some work CAN'T be performed in one sitting and a lot has to heal completely before more work is added, corrected, fixed, or filled in. You can usually pay a tap out session. Usually 3-6 hours and a flat rate. The artist will go and go until you tap out. Thing with that is what I said before. Some work cant be done in one sitting. And once you leave, that work should be healed before more work is added, or all your doing is making a huge scar. It took a friend I know over 24 hours, 5 sessions to get her back piece done. and she is still going back for touch up work for the stuff she started a year ago. Now if it is a smaller piece, I don't see why you cant do one sitting, but if its complicated huge piece, learn some patience or you will mess it up. Don't piss of your artist or you will never get back in and good luck finding another artist to complete the work of another artist.
