    Default finally, i know what to do with my tattoo!

    as you know, i hate this tat on my wrist.


    i finally decided to get an octopus on it (oceanic sleeve is on it's way!) and i was thinking about something like this, and remember, it's a cover up for the above tattoo:


    except i want my octopi to be a silvery blue/black and his under tentacles to be like um, this color (mac parrot):


    i'm so excited, do ya'll think my color choices would look good? or should i go with a green for the tentacles like this (mac golden olive):


    sorry for the makeup swatches, it's the first thing i thought of to show for color reference!

    Hahahaha I love the fact that you used makeup swatches...seriously, love it. I really like the blues, I like them better than the greens. I think it'll look awesome. I can't wait to see it!

    I dunno why- I think that's a great idea!!! For some reason I think the octopus is going to be a really cool tattoo.

    When guys try to touch you, you can hold up your palms and say "Whoops- a little too handsy."

    That's a great idea, i think it'll look amazing. i like the sound of the blues more than the greens.

    your wanting to put body paint on it to cover it? or your wanting to cover it up with another tattoo?

    thats solid black hun, you cant cover solid black with light colors. unless your willing to make that a very large darker colored spot on a huge tattoo its not going to happen. that or your going to need a couple lazer treatments to lighten it first.

    hate to burst your bubble.

    ^ that was my first thought too, I don't know how you could turn black into color.

    I do heart the idea though. Esp. the oceanic theme for more tattoos.

    I think she knows that, which is why she described the cover up as having a black body,a nd the undersides of the tentacles being the color swatches she showed. Because the tattoo she's covering up is the shape it is, an octopus would be a good coverup shape to go over it, and I'm sure a good tattoo artist could find a way to make it work and look awesome.

    Whenever people say, "I'm sorry to burst your bubble," I always think, "No you aren't! You couldn't wait." Ditto on people who like to be the first to tell you bad news. Someone once said to me, "Oh, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but Kurt Vonnegut died last night," as if I don't read the news and didn't already know it. And I just knew she didn't hate to tell me, she loved to bear the bad news. Some people are just like that.

    /tangent

    Cool tattoo idea though!

    actually, a good enough artist can make cover up a dark tattoo with a lighter color. maybe not that light, but you could go from black to a medium blue, fyi.

    you have to put white (or any very light color) over it and redarken it after that heals. or you can do the white a few times. I know a guy who had a black tat, the cover up (right over the old piece) is a bright olive green.

    i third the irratation when people LOVE to rub shit in your face. just so sweet! lol.

    I love the octopus idea! The colors for the tenicles will look great on your skin tone. Can't wait to see the finished product.

    I think it's an awesome idea.. I love octopedes! I actually like the shiny green color better than the blues, since you might have more blues in the background of your ocean sleeve, maybe?

    I can't wait to see how it turns out!
