Seeing how difficult it has been contacting Pangburn for the past month (its been like pulling teeth trying to arrange this…) I have to assume he isn’t confident about doing it or just doesn’t want to so I’m thinking its time to start searching again.

I’m thinking about going with an adjustment rather than a full blown cover up.

Came out great, really like the flower on the elbow

Well guess I just don’t know what to look for, glad to see I’m at the right place though.

Did you even see their gallery before going there???

I don’t see anything wrong with their gallery.

Is Southside where you got the original tattoo?

No, I went here: http://www.galactictattoos.com/index#!__index/gallery/vstc1=al

Went to Southside Tattoos and the sketch for the fix was much better but I still want to see what Tim can draw up for me first. Though he’s hasn’t replied to my question yet. I think I’ll just call him sometime this week and set everything up just to get it done and rolling.

Well, it would always have to go higher, wider and lower than your current one. Since that is most of your back already, I’d think it would look strange to leave nothing but the tramp-stamp place left empty.

Well as you can tell from the original I wanted something that size.

Tim will do it and you have to think about it? Of coarse he will have to do almost a full back piece to cover it. In case you forgot what your tattoo looks like:

Well I don’t see why he can’t just go a little bigger as the wing span is already at its maximum length, so the only way to go bigger is to go further down…[Read more]

Yep, I know who he is … just missed the post above mine. 😮

I would at least let him show you what he has in mind. Even if it costs a few bucks for his time, it’s worth it imho.

Hm, I think I’ll ask him if he could possibly keep it to just my upper/mid back but I’ll have him sketch what he was planning either…[Read more]

So Pangburn got back to me and said he could do it, but said I would have to do my entire back. Not sure if I’m looking for a full blown back piece, was hoping that he could do it but simply make it a bit larger if need be. Don’t know what to do.

What happened with Pangburn?

See my post above. I just can’t get a response from him for some reason.

Well I messaged Tim through his website, waited a few days, and then sent a similar message along with a friend request on facebook. He accepted my friend request but didn’t reply to my message -_-

I guess I’ll shoot him another message tomorrow if he still hasn’t replied.

do you like the color?

Yeah the color looks good. Think it over for a bit and if you still dislike the color try to do something about it then. Don’t rush yourself.

Wow, I think it looks great. Though I really have no idea if it’s possible to black/gray it out.

First, I’ve been tattooed by Sean Zee and he was really cool and seemed like an upstanding guy. I doubt he’d send you to someone who couldn’t do the work professionally.
I also wonder how this has been talked about with artists because I’m hearing two different things I think…”fix” and “coverup”. I might be wrong but as far…[Read more]

im curious as to which artists were the ones having serious problems about the cover up. the “big name” artists some of us have mentioned shouldnt have too much problems about covering that piece up, considering how light it is. maybe because of the size?

As I said the guys at Electric weren’t really for it, another…[Read more]

I was under the impression that with the light coloring it shouldn’t be too difficult to fix up, but they all seem really hesitant. Again, most likely because they generally don’t do Cover Ups.

He didn’t show me how the colored product will look (Do artists generally not do this? Because the first guy didn’t either which was the major…[Read more]

Wow the whole thing turned out incredible.

So I went to Electric Tattoo today and although he fixed the head the rest wasn’t really different. He really didn’t seem too sure about the whole deal so I think I’ll wait to hear back from Tim. If he can fix it for me I’d definitely go with him.

Everyone I’ve talked to seems to have a serious problem doing it but hopefully since he specializes…[Read more]
