You have a great tattoo, but if you want only the premier highest tattoo artwork it certainly can be obtained - but you'll have to be very committed to persistence, long waits, (likely) repeated travelling and high dollars.
-
that's going to be a tough scene to pull off . . .
-
Yep. Looks to be pretty well done.
-
Wow. That's either dedication or obsession -
-
typically it'd take 10 posts before you can start a new thread - but you can certainly ask any questions you've got right here . . .
-
Yeow. You just might want to re-evaluate your criteria for "friend", too.
-
perfect, @Gingerninja!
-
how would you depict the crow as dead? Arrows through it?

Well, photo-realism means just what the name describes, ie: an artist reproduces a scene or picture to exacting detail. Perfect reproduction. Illustration has broader possibilities, with the artist implying the subject with his/her own flair. Here are a couple of examples in the tattoo world: https://www.instagram.com/thedrowntown/ https://www.instagram.com/teresasharpeart/ https://www.instagram.com/tpenningtontat2/

Either would work, but just to make sure you understand when vetting tattooists = illustrative and (photo)realism are 2 different styles.
-
probably better projected by an illustrative styled tattooist, imho.
-
2nd on all the above, and stay out of the ocean or any long term immersion (ie: read "stay out of the pool, too") for at least 2-3 weeks.
-
depends a lot on your expectations, and how dark your skin really is . . .
-
covering the new one with something like the 2nd photo? No. Covers work best when it can blend into a larger piece. If you're wanting to stay small you're going to need to lighten it with lazer (after at least a fair amount of healing time).

Always up for some good news. Thanks, @Iwar! -
Absolutely true. All of those shops mentioned have reputable tattooists/artists who treasure the craft and should be able to assist with recommendations.
