What is a Backpiece Tattoo? piece
Full back tattoos, or backpieces as we say in the industry, are impressive pieces of art. While some people get tattoos on their back when they are just starting out having a complete cohesive back tattoo done by one tattoo artist is a statement piece, to say the least.
Key Takeaways:
- For a complete back piece, the time could range between 20 to 30 hours depending on the design.
- A standard full-back tattoo cost to cover the entire back with a lot of detail work and shading will cost from $2,000 to $5,000.
- If you’re getting a full back tattoo (or even one over much of your back), you’ll undoubtedly end up hitting parts of the spine and shoulder blades.
Tattoo Inspiration
For a complete back piece, the time could range between 20 to 30 hours depending on the design, but this is not a thing you do often. If you’re not in the market for having your whole back inked, something smaller takes much less time.
A standard full-back tattoo cost to cover the entire back with a lot of detail work and shading will take around 20 – 30 hours of work and cost from $2,000 to $5,000. A half-back tattoo costs about $1,000 if it’s an outline done in black ink.
If you’re getting a full back tattoo (or even one over much of your back), you’ll undoubtedly end up hitting parts of the spine and shoulder blades. The areas not on the bone, however, will be less intense. Wherever you get a tattoo, it will hurt to some degree; you’re being stuck with needles, after all.
