Thanks Hogrider, and I hear what you're saying. It's going to take a bit of work all right. What do you mean by later removal?
I was hoping there were some qualified tattoo artists on here though that might be able to offer some insight into what I could do. Problem is, I live in Dubai, where you can't just find a tattoo parlour on the street, so I'm hoping for some info online.
Cheers,
