maria1973 Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Don't know how to upload pics i'm such a techno virgin will ask my son to help..........i feel a bit of a fraud though as its not that big but the placement and the way its been drawn has left it looking unflattering for my body type. The actual tattoo isn't too bad so i'm just gonna go much bigger and add to it and stop being so damn timid with it!!!!!! I really wanna go with a different artist though who looks much much better but have heard that there is a risk of the ink not matching up and it not looking right is this correct?...........the one i have is fairly recent only a couple of months old just black, grey and white. Will go back to original artist if i have to but this guy i have come across seems much more professional and talented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrixieFaux Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Better than 'How do you solve a problem like.........' :) Oops. Was just about to mention the Sound of Music... I will just say hello then. And that I was born in 1969 since everyone's bringing up their year of birth. maria1973 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I have a cover up and my blacks matched perfectly, but I have also heard that the ink wont match and will make it look terrible.... I feel if the artist has talent they will make up for that with design and application Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan S Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Just about all of the work that I got back in the 70's and 80's is coverup. There are a few places where you can still-if you know what you're looking for-see parts of the original work, but unless I went with a solid black sleeve, that's unavoidable. Black will match, most often, once it's healed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maria1973 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 Rather than go for a cover up i think i'm just going to add to what i already have.........this is why i am concerned about the inks matching up. I don't want to be left looking like a patchwork especially as it is on my chest. Suppose i just need to wait and see what the artist says when i go for my consultation on weds and stop worrying so much. There is always the option of laser and fading the one i have to start again. They also do that where i am going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
