I'll Review Your Idea
I'll look at your references, preferred placement, and the scope of the project before responding.
I'm Rinat Tattarin Mingazdinov, a tattoo artist based in Los Angeles.
I focus on large-scale work, from full sleeves and back pieces to compositions that connect different areas of the body. My appointments are planned as full-day tattoo sessions.
If you're considering a new project, tell me what you have in mind. You don't need a finished design before contacting me.
I offer free consultations, online or in person. I usually respond within 1–3 business days.
A general idea and a few reference images are enough to get started. I'll help you work through the composition and placement during our consultation.
Here are the details that help me understand what you're planning.
Tell me what you'd like to see in the tattoo. Include subjects, visual references, or a style that interests you.
Let me know where you're considering the tattoo, such as an arm, back, chest, or another area.
Describe how much space you'd like the design to cover. Exact measurements aren't necessary.
If there's already a tattoo in that area, include clear photos. This is particularly important for cover-up projects or extensions of existing work.
Use my booking form to share the details of your project. I'll review your message and get back to you.
We can discuss your idea online or arrange to meet at the studio. The initial consultation is free.
Not sure which direction to take? You can also browse my portfolio before reaching out.
I'll look at your references, preferred placement, and the scope of the project before responding.
We'll talk through the subjects, composition, and size, including how the tattoo should follow the shape of your body.
Once we've agreed on the project, we'll discuss scheduling. Larger compositions may need multiple full-day appointments.
A deposit is required to secure an appointment. I usually prepare the design 1–2 weeks before the scheduled session. You can find more details in my Tattoo FAQ.
I work at Monna Lissa Tattoo Studio in the Westwood neighborhood of Los Angeles.
