Got a leg tattoo in Jamaica that I was really happy about and in the spur of the moment I went back to the guy the next day and asked him to do palm trees on my back. Which he did freestyle without design. Big mistake. It's off center and whenever I wear a tank top ppl think I've got ganja leaves on my back. I got 3 tattoos from him and the other 2 are fine.

You could get more definition added and maybe add some palm fruit so it looked more clear. Im an illustrator not a tattoo artist but i can think of a few things that could help

This is not that bad, and you could definitely get an artist to fix it up.

It’s actually not very dark, even though it’s quite large. You could cover it if you wanted to commit to a very large piece

Oof. Maybe start saving for removal instead of covering it up.

Honestly it's not that bad. I know a lot of artists don't like to fix other people's "art" but you could just add some life to it and maybe something into the background.

    It's an interesting style. I actually kind of like this.

    I think it's lovely. You could always have it touched up 😊 I think it's perhaps *why* you regret it that's the thing here? Does it no longer have meaning or perhaps the meaning at the time is upsetting now or something? I find it quite beautiful and very unusual 😊💖

    Yes, a good touch up might save this one.

    Maybe remove the one on the hand. Then brighten up the other 2?

    These aren’t bad. They’re original and just need to be gone over. I like them:)

    It might just need some touching up!
