A neo-traditional tattoo of an ornate sword piercing a winged eye, placed on the chest. Done in black and grey. By Arca at Ink DaVinci.
The ornate sword at the centre in high-contrast black and grey; the winged eye at the centre in black and grey. The composition is tall, vertical and symmetrical, with bold outlines; about half of the skin inside the outline is inked.

Description and tags: TatSeek Vision Scan, an AI reading of each photo (Claude, by Anthropic) under written rules and a closed tag vocabulary, checked against photos labelled by hand. Shares of the picture are visual estimates, not measurements. Nothing about the person in the photo is recorded. How tagging works(Vision Scan v4.2; photo quality 2 of 3)
Size: Estimated from the photo: longest side ≈ 1.6 × chest width, nipple to nipple (adult average). Not measured by the studio. How size is measured
Price and time: the size picks the studio’s price tier (very large / sleeve: $3000–$7500+); TatSeek narrows it by the measured size and detail of this piece → ≈$3,000–$3,870. Time comes from size × detail. How prices are calculated
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.
