It might be quite shocking, discovering how much your dream tattoo might cost and the saying “what you pay for is what you get” strongly comes in play here. However, Scott Campbell, a well-known tattoo artist based in the Williamsburg part of Brooklyn, New York, has created the ultimate test of trust in his work: he offers free tattoos to people as long as he gets to choose the design and not show it to them until it’s done. The name of his project, playing on everyone’s favorite truck-stop delight, is “Whole Glory.”

Not so long ago tattoos were meant for sailors, freak-show entertainers, and general low-lives, but as you can see from the works of Scott Campbell, the fine lines and intricate details might even suit the Queen herself (though she might not need to worry about finding a way to getting a tattoo for free).

The trust these people place in him when they stick their hands through the wall for a free tattoo isn’t unfounded – Campbell has tattooed celebs like Marc Jacobs, Orlando Bloom, and Penelope Cruz. Nonetheless, he does thank each person for their trust in him and his art. What do you think of the work he did?
