Melbourne, Australia.

I’ve heard a few names who specialise in japanese/manga style (which is what he said he was)
and would like to keep it in that direction..

Some suggestions would be great

I guess my plan of attack is find a REAL artist, who wants to help finish it. Speak with him about areas to laser off, and go from there?

Yep, I think that would definitely be the best thing. Lasering would turn black into grey, and then you can apply more correct amount of black and grey on top of it 🙂 Same would probably go for the sunbeams since I guess you can’t put yellow on top of the red, but personally I’d tackle one problem at a time and begin with the unsightly black blobs, which are by far the worst part of the tattoo. It’s probably going to hurt like fucking hell, especially around the nipples 😮

Good luck with the Lotto win, by the way.

I have a bad experience.

Once upon a time…. LOL… Nah i was 15 and i really wanted a tattoo just for the sake of having one… SO…. i tried every tattoo parlor and nobody would give me one because i was underage.. So my mums friend at work said i know a guy who used to be a tattooist and will tattoo him for really cheap at he’s house… So i got really excited and went a day later (Didn’t even know what i wanted tattooing) So… i was looking through all these designs (tribals… FUCK MY LIFE :confused:) and i picked one and he did it within like 30minutes… Today all the lines are wonky… It’s all faded and just looks like a total piece of shit..

What i have learned from this awful experience and giving you lot advice..

Never get a tattoo unless it’s at a trusted well known good artist no matter what people might say about there friends and how good they are..

As for the tribal on my arm i am planning lazer surgery sometime in the future.

I’ve never really had a bad experience although I got tattooed by a drunk at a tattoo shop when I was 17 getting my first tattoo. Saw a 6 pack under his station and he smelled like he threw back a few. Found out he got fired from that shop for showing up drunk. I don’t have anything against drinking since I drink myself, but drinking and tattooing don’t mix.

My worst exp. was when I was just a young little lady. I had been waiting for the day when I turned 18 so I could finally get a ‘professional’ tattoo other than the mess I was poking on myself with a needle and ink starting about 14 years. My first exp.AND WORST was with an arrogant douche that thought he was too cool for school and gave me a turd of a tat that was entirely raised with scar tissue. My tat still feels like it is a brail tattoo…..ha, “tat for the blind,” I guess! :confused:
