Composition:🧩 Mainly Hot DogⓘThe main elements of the picture in order of visual weight — what takes up most of it comes first. TatSeek’s estimate from the photo, not a measurement. How we know →Subject:🔱 Symbols & Objects›🍕 Food & Drink Size:✋ Medium (10-20cm)Complexity:ⓘHow detailed the piece is, separate from its size. More detail means more hours, so it moves the price as much as size does. How we know → 🤨 MediumPlacement:🦵 ThighColor:🌈 Color↕️ VerticalMoodⓘHow the piece feels — cute, dark, fierce, romantic… Read from what it shows and how it’s drawn: the same character can be fierce in realism and funny in a cartoon style. An estimate, not the artist’s label. How we know → 😄 FunnyInkⓘThe ink colours in this tattoo and roughly how much of the inked area each takes, read from the photo. Only colours we are fairly sure of; glare and bare skin are not counted as white. How we know → 🟢 Green 30%🔴 Red 20%🟡 Yellow 20%⚫ Black 10%🟠 Orange 10%DetailⓘHow much work goes into each square centimetre — line only, fill, shading or realistic texture, how dense, how many colour blends, how precise. It does not depend on size: a small realistic rose and a big one have the same detail. Detail and size together drive the time and the price.

Worked out from what is in the tattoo, not a separate opinion. A pure pattern has no subject; a style we have no name for counts as none.
