    can anyone recommend a good tattooist who can work on covers up please. on my arm i have some indian ink and a coloured tattoo that i desperately want covered up. have a Celtic band on my wrist and am not looking to get something all the way up my arm (a long sleeve??)
    i'd post the mess that's on my arm just now but have no connection for phone on here.

    thanks in advance

    It really depends on the style of tattoo that you are looking to get done. True, creating a cover-up tattoo is different to getting a tattoo from scratch, but a mostly it'll still come down to the style of tattoo that you want done.

    i'd be looking for something tribal from wrist to shoulder. would need to have them look at it and give me some pointers on what is best/not best. sooner i start on it the better really as it's a long time coming

    i am in the same boat as yourself got some tattoos on my arms years ago and am looking to get both down from waist to shoulder with tribal design something like the one george clooney has in the film dusk till dawn is the only way i know how to describe it,
    i have had a chat with one of the lads in work that has it done reckon's it's best to hire the tattoo artist by the hour for this kinda work;)
