How we know

Worked example (not this photo): the scanner sees a forearm and that the tattoo runs along about 60% of it. An adult forearm is about 25.5 cm from elbow to wrist (24 cm on a typical female frame, 27 cm on a typical male frame), so the tattoo is ≈15 cm, give or take 15% (13–17 cm). That puts it in the medium tier (10–20 cm), which this imaginary studio prices at $300–$600. Where 13–17 cm sits inside 10–20 cm by area, nudged by a detail of 60/100, gives ≈$380–$500, and ≈2.5–4 hours. A $300-wide price list becomes a $120-wide estimate for this one piece. It stays a planning range; the artist quotes the final price.
