Polishing Turds Part. 3
A Tattoo Fix Up by. @kiddarko

A client contacted me and told me she had an older smaller tattoo that I had done 20 yrs ago. She wanted to rework it & add some more flowers so we started with the rework & talked about the additional flowers to add later. When this tattoo was first done it looked decent but 20 years of sun and age will definitely do some damage and fading.

I went trough and did a complete rework on this. The tattoo took me 1hr to complete. If you measure 4" with your figers you will see how small this tattoo really is. It is a very small flower indeed.

She messaged me about 2 hours after we completed this to tell me how happy she is with it & how excited she is to get the rest.
I started explaining steemit to her and she was really interested. Hopefully she joins us

      Hahah, love the title of the post. I can see why she messaged you and was excited, this is pretty amazing to see the transformation! That original tatto looked worn out and wilted, you splashed some new life on it. Killer work!
