Bodypainting Pricing Question - Lingerie BodyPainting Pic Inside

[SevenArt]

I run an established and very reputable tattoo/art studio here in Dallas, Tx. I've been asked by some club promoters to do some bodypainting for them. My question is... how much should I charge for bodypainting? I've heard some charge by the hour. My friend's friend (does that make sense?.. lol) who does airbrushing and bodypainting for a living usually charges by the girl... $100-$250 per girl usually depending on the design... with a discount if he does 5 or more I believe. Does that sound right?

I body painted this last week and my photographer that I use did a 2 hour photo session. It was an all nude body painting... I'll try and post more pics of it when I get more proofs from my photographer. I used both airbrush and brushes. Ben Nye liquid airbrush paints and just a tad bit of acrylics for detail.

that's awesome work but no way I could do that as I wouldn't have enough self control,LOL I wouldn't be able to concentrate on what I was doing. Great work,she doesn't look nude,it actually looks like she is wearing Lingerie

It's ironic that we have a special opt-in section specifically for nude and erotic paintings, but this nude doesn't belong there.

Great job on that paint, and I'm with Kewl... I don't see how you do it. That girl's a stunner, and my mind would be more directed to things more decadent than airbrushing.

I can't help you on pricing though. Maybe Neil or Lorena will pop in here and give you a hand. I'm just going to go drool for a bit.

Thanks for the kind words. Having our tattoo/art studio right smack in the middle where all the bars and nightlife is, I've been asked a few times by club promoters to body paint models for them. I've always declined being pretty busy with my tattoo appointments. But lately, it's intrigued me alot so I tried my hand at it. This was my very first full body painting... although I'm not new to airbrushing.

Thanks again everyone. And if someone could help me with pricing, that would be awesome.

Wow, fantastic! I can't help you with price, but I can tell you it's a great job! It has to be a high price...

Oh yeah, and the girl is hot... (that's what we wanted to say in the first place)

2 things to say.....Wow on the airbrushing and WOW on the model!!!!.

Seriously thought, love the use of the shadows around the laces and around the sides of the bra, great work.

Sorry can't help with pricing, I've never charged for anything I have painted (I'm not good enough yet).

Bandit.

Can't help with the pricing either.

Man how do you concentrate with the airbrush or the tattoo machine, when the girl is this hot looking :drool::drool: Even though I'm no where near being a pro, I just would have one thing on my mind, can you guess what that is ?

Wrong, the answer would be, if my wife see's me doing this I'm as good as dead :hanged::whew::arsespank: :lol_alpha:

By the way, awesome artwork, really looks like the real thing.

Hahahaha I know how it feels brother!

I charge $100 per hour and give a I0% discount if i can use the photos on my website.This works fine for models wanting the photos for their portfolio but not so good with females that just want the photos for husbands or boy friends
