Why not do like a badass warrior/samurai or something to symbolize the “I protect others” idea?

Sorry, but it just looks poorly done. If you’re happy with it that’s all that matters, but I’d suggest changing artists.

Not impossible, but not a fun job..If you’re dead set on covering it I would do laser sessions first….However, instead of covering it why not just add to it? Do a full back piece with it included and it’ll look dope. I actually like the tattoo also.

The face is bad and her legs do look a little too muscular (unless you were intentionally going for that). The legs aren’t a big deal, but I would definitely try to get the face fixed because once my eyes saw her face I couldn’t stop looking at it.

I don’t have the greatest looking ink, but those are downright awful in my opinion.None of them really pop out at you and they look poorly done faded or not. Sorry man, I would definitely find a new artist to cover some of those up. If you’re happy with them that’s awesome, though.

You don’t need to wrap it up every night and I’m not sure what purpose the olive oil serves..Post up some pics so we can see it.
