I haven't seen your tattoo but usually there is always a solution for covering up or editing. The only thing you should keep in mind is choose the best artist you can afford.

Hi droxzfine.

I'd suggest that you get at least a few laser treatments before attempting to cover your tattoo. Go see a reputable artist in your area to get an opinion and if he/she says "no problem at all"....... Get another opinion just to be sure. I don't think a koi cover-up will work on that arm at this point. A few laser treatments will make the all the difference in the world and a very nice koi (would have to have some background because of the shape of the tattoo you have now.) would not be a problem.

Hope this helps.
