Cover up – First one

So this is my first cover up. I love the old Sailor Jerry Tattoos and convinced the client to go with this Sailor Jerry Rattle Snake to cover it up. Later we’ll incorporate the Don’t tread on me script. The old tattoo is classic scratcher tattoo (not mine). I thought this would be best to break up the lettering and distract from the cover up with a detailed head. The body was changed from the orginial flash to fit the cover up and make it one of a kind. I used a 5 and 9 round tight. 9 flat. mom’s mellenium colors and true black intenze and kuro sumi outline ink. 10 wrap coils all around.
