Either a website i could submit a picture to or something. Its on my arm and is black and has some flames. its faded slightly and im SURE it can be done. Maybe someone knows the perfect site to check. i didnt really see anything here but the forum seems good. thanks

And plz dont say tattoo convention cuz i probably wont go anyways, i need another option.

Check with the shops in your area, they would be the best source.

Speaking of which, I have a tat I want to cover; my first from years ago in the military.

My concern is the tattoo is mainly black ink and I'm wondering what color inks will cover black. I'm considering a nautical star with skull above, kind of pirate-y, but wa hoping from some input here before I go this July to start the process.

Thanks.

For whatever reason my image link doesn't show up in the finished post. The image is in my personal gallery though.

soushift and Flogging_Murphy,

The best suggestion for you both is to go to the shop you would want to do the cover-up and see what they suggest. It's very hard to give you an idea of what can/can't be done without seeing it in person. The artist can work with you to find a design that can be done and that you'll be happy with.

Also, Flogging_Murphy - images are disabled from the main viewing, but if we click "quote" or "post reply" we can see them. I would think that your tattoo could be covered by a good artist.

Good luck to you both! I've had to do cover-ups and am so glad I did and now have something I like! Wink

Well, I've found what I want for a cover up (if possible). I'll leave out the banner and wording but the overall design is what I like. I hope it will work as a cover-up. Confused

Nice! What parts are you from? If you're anywhere near me, I have someone I can recommend that has a lot of this type of style in his portfolio that you could look at.

Not near Oklahoma I'm afraid.
