I got it done by a friend(no charge) but I regret having him do it as he wasn’t a pro.Long story short he talked me into it and I fell for it.I wanna know if its possible for a PRO to fix this.At least the tattoo isn’t horrifyingly hideous but when I look at LA INK/Miami Ink it puts my tattoo to shame :(.The part I really dislike is the neck;it looks kind of akward.I was thinking of adding like a universe or a black hole or some mayan/aztec related stuff to partially cover the neck of the feathered serpent.
Here is a video I recorded of my tattoo

This was all freehand drawn.
Thanks if you took your time reading this.
It is very amateurish. But I kind of like the design.
Where in the world are you? Tim Pangburn could cover that up.

That is amazing! But I don’t Really want to get it Covered it,More like Re-Designed.And Color wouldn’t look good on my dark skin :/
As far as fixing that tattoo, it’s possible and I think it is a good design that has been executed poorly. Where do you live? I’m sure someone here can suggest a local artist to fix you up.
I live like 40 Mins South of LA.Im gunna get it fixed up by this guy. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001517516943
I love his work/style of tattoo’s.
professional artists only……….value your skin
Like which part? The only part I don’t like are the little circles in the face and the neck of the feathered serpent where it starts bending at the top.Im hoping I can get something to cover the neck up a bit so I had this in mind. http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=tlaloc&order=9&offset=24#/d2zamfz I got permission from the creator to use this design.

The LA area is so overflowing with uber talented tattooist I’m not sure I would settle for this guy.
But it’s your skin do what you want.

I’ll admit hes not good with color.He learned in Prison, don’t expect him to be good at painting butterflies and lollipops.But his black & white art that he does and especially his aztec art is nice.Pretty fair priced too.75$ an hour as apposed to http://www.latinskulls.net/home.html charging me 145 an hour.Where can I find out about LA artist that are independent(No shop,Like the guy’s facebook I posted) around my area?
Let me get this right…. you have a tattoo that you admitted is put to shame by what you’ve seen is possible. You’re shown what is possible (Pangburn or someone else talented enough to cover that),,,, and you’re leaning towards an “independent, non-shop, prison-taught” … ummm “artist”?
Wow… just wow. No shop, no autoclave, no serious drawing skill, no understanding of colors and color theory and what one ink over another is going to do underneath your SKIN… sounds like a good idea to you?
Save money on a 2 for one Happy Meal or a stripper, or clothing…. but for God’s sake, we’re talking about something that’s going INTO your skin and going to be there for life. You have a shot to make it better right now, but if you get a second half-assed job on it, then what???

I agree.
It seems like you didn’t learn a hell of a lot the first time around. That single image speaks volumes about the guy’s lack of talent.

People who don’t learn: the 8th wonder of the world.
Pay the extra for the good tattooist and then just save money on groceries.
