I had always wanted a nine inch nails bar on the back of my neck. Last year i went in to get it done, and basically what happened and i didnt realize until 1 week later, when they transferred the tattoo to my skin, they had it upside down. An easy mistake to make and one that I didn't catch onto when checking the positioning in the mirror.

I was devastated when I realized it was upside down (the first N should be forward and the last backwards and this is the other way around), and despite taking care of the tattoo to the best of my ability, it has turned out pretty botched, and spotty and uneven. It's very embarrassing and I will no longer wear my hair up. because there is so much black in the tattoo, it's been difficult to think of a cover up, and not knowing anyone that draws, and coming up short of creative ideas with so little to work with, I'm turning to the tattoo forums for some ideas...

Here is a photo of what my neck looks like right now: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v143/denonaba/photo-112.jpg

Any advice would be useful...I love star wars, and was thinking if i incorporated space into it, which is black, that could help cover it up...but that is about as far as my idea goes...I would ideally love to have something star wars related because I am such a passionate fan...but if any of you know where i could turn for more advice, or know someone that draws up artwork...anything, any kind of advice or place to turn to, any ideas, anything would help...

i'm at my wits end with this tattoo Undecided

Thank you everyone!

Ouch thats gotta be an annoying experience for you denonaba .

My immediate thoughts would be to shop around your local area for someone reputable  to see what they can do to  assist. There are some great tatt artists around that will be capable  of  turning this  into  something you will be proud to wear. Just be careful whom you let tattoo you.

sorry to hear that denonaba. i think that the best thing for you to do is to find a professional and resputable tattoo artist. ask for some suggestions this time make sure that it is already okay...so that you wont have problems anymore.
