People will have a tattoo that they got a long time ago before the art really caught
up to where it is now. I'm covered in crappy tattoos. Back in the day you couldn't even
get tattoos like what we're doing today. It just didn't exist. So there's a lot of people
running around with a lot of crappy work and then want really good stuff, there’s a variety
of ways to do that. The first way is to and they easiest way is to just have a modern
professional go in and rework the entire piece, from the ground up. Kind of like remodeling
an old home. If you do that you're going to end up with a pristine shiny new thing that's
the exact same image only not sucky. If you want to take it to the next level there is
cover-up. Cover-up is very popular, some of my guys specialize in covering-up old work
and I've had a lot of cover-ups done on me. Cover-ups are good. Sometimes they're fun
too. And that is where you have an old existing crappy tattoo like the panther with the initials
in it we were talking about for example and you decide that you want some art work instead.
Or you've got a tiny little tattoo and you'd rather have a half-sleeve. Well then what
your artist is going to do is just hide some of those little dark areas in your little
tattoo in the dark areas of the large tattoo, no one will know but you and us, and we won't
tell anybody.
