is custom tattooing cheaper?

i want to get alot of work. big work.. will it be cheaper to get flash or custom stuff drawn up?

If your getting big work, price shouldnt be the deceiding factor. And you should get custom sleeves....

the guy i was apprenticeing under when i was 18 used to charge 200 for a four hour session just to keep himself busy and to do custom work. i know some guys give great deals just to mix it up and not do flash. alot of people want to make a name for themselves with their custom work that they'll give ya a great deal.
