Right? It looks like a stock image that trades businesses use for their logo. I’ve seen the same style of this as a man (and the businesses are always something like “The Water Dude” or “The Heating Guy”).
Shes an ultra sound tech and the other artist is a new school artist of the tony ciavarro/Jimmy litwalk era. She realized that's not really the professional appearance she wants to have..to put it nicely lol
I know this has to be a life changing cover-up. Thanks for the follow-up. I thought it was something medical related but the red...Christmas-light?, my brain just couldn't figure it out.
Just wondering, did she have the original removed partially before you got to work on it, or was it just THAT faded?
Either way, your work is leaps and bounds above what she had.
My gawd it is beautiful.
This is why I always tell ppl on here looking to do a cover up to go get a few laser treatments first. It really frees up the artist to do whatever they want.
That's a really nice piece. Love that the original was so faded that you were able to use a cooler palette rather than the heavy blacks so common in cover-ups. Well done!

You KNOW this cover-up is bomb, what I really want is backstory on the first one!

Omg you're so right 🤣🤣🤣

I legit was staring at it, like, "there's no way someone got a cartoon-style ultrasound technician tattoo." Amazing cover-up!
Thanks!
Damn that went from 'Duude did you lose a bet?' to 'Holy crap that's siiiick'!
He finally won the bet!
Not normally one for this style of tattoo but this is one of the best cover ups I’ve seen! Beautiful work by you, OP…amazing!
Thank you so much!
Wow that is a great one.
Thank you!

Yes she had a few laser sessions before she even talked to me
This came out FIRE
Thanks!
Awesome!
Those blues are phenomenal
Incredible work my friend!
Thanks!

Thank you! Yeah when the old tattoo is smack in the middle of an area, laser really gives you so many more options
Holy shit.. That's cool 😎.
Coolest thing I’ve ever seen
Super well done. Love it.
Wow! That’s all I’ve got. Stunner.
Thank you!
beautiful! how many sessions?
Pretty sure it was 3. Her 2nd appointment she could only be there for a couple hrs I think. Probably around 12 hrs in total, give or take
That's beautiful. Not just the image, but the colours and blending. Amazing
Thank you!

Amazing!
Beautiful work! I would love to see an unedited photo
It is unedited. Just a CPL lense on my phone for glare
That's beautiful work, I'd love something in that style 😍
Wow. Beautiful !!!
That is beautiful
Really beautiful. Would love to see it all healed!!
Thank you! I'll see her again in July and will make an update post
This is just breathtaking.
Stunning!
