Thanks for the suggestions. For my own knowledge, how does a cover-up work? Does the offending piece get covered up with anything? Or does the cover piece need to be designed in a way that incorporates the original tattoo? Can the artist put color where there is currently black?

I actually have the opposite feeling. I'm excited for the new one and start thinking of the next one, although that usually happens months later. A well-done tattoo can be a piece of art and I enjoy seeing/getting them.

I went a long time ago and got my Celtic cross done by someone who is no longer there (Dave Sobel, I think was his name) and then I recently got something done for my daughter by Josh Griffin. I have talked to him about doing something with this Celtic/tribal quagmire I have, but I thought I would join this forum and see if I could get some help/ideas that I could take to him. I really like the work he did on the tattoo for my daughter, so I figured I would stick with him, plus it's easy to stop in there, since my wife's family lives in Baltimore and we travel up there

Hello everyone, My name is James and I live in South Carolina, but I have been getting my tattoos at Baltimore Tattoo Museum in Baltimore, MD. I only have 3 tattoos right now, but it's not for lack of want...I tend to over-think things. I would like to eventually get half-sleeves and possibly a few in random places (back, side, calf). I currently have a Celtic cross and a banner with my family's motto on it, my daughters name with flowers on the inside of my bicep and a Celtic knotwork design with tribal around it. Speaking of that, I would actually like some advice on that Celtic/knotwork tattoo. I will own up to the fact that it was a "rookie mistake" of not thinking it through and getting something that I am not happy with. I, personally, don't like anything tribal, so I really don't know why I got it. I would like to get it altered or covered up, but I am completely lost on what to get. I would appreciate ANY advice or suggestions what could be done to improve/alter/change/cover-up this tattoo. If anyone thinks I should create a new thread later on (after my initial 10 posts) to get more responses, feel free to say so. Thanks james
