So I got a tattoo of a spider on my calf when I was 18. ( young and stupid) I am 50 now and my wife of 25 years says you should get that covered up. It never really bothered me but I know it looked stupid so I agreed and off we went. We got to the tattoo parlor and I was talking to the artist and he says he can do it. Just make sure it is something you won't regret later. I let him know what I was thinking and we make an appointment for today. This is what came of it. The guy was really cool and couldn't believe how well it came out. I haven't let any of my 5 kids or anyone else know I no longer have a spider on my leg. I want to see their reactions. I couldn't be happier with the result. no longer can my mother-in law say "there's a spider on your leg". I am a bass fisherman!

Thats so cool

Wow that did come out good.

Total noob question here; how to they remove ink (if you don't mind me asking)?

They didn't. They literally tattoo'd right over it. If you have something dark going on, most of the time they can 'hide' the older tattoo under the new ink.

 

If you want a tattoo permanently removed your only options are 1) cut it off, 2) laser removal

You could have changed it to the Spider Wire logo.    Looks good.

Great cover up work!

Awesome tattoo. I'm gonna get some kind of fishing tattoo I don't know what yet though.

Perfect!

Definitely one of the better fish/bass tattoos that I have seen!!
