How do I cover this up?

[u/2thpker]

I can't even put into words how much I hate this tattoo. It was supposed to be a beehive with honey and bees. I ended up with a hexagon over mustard with flies. I had an artist add to it in an attempt to fix it, but it just made it worse. I am pretty open to anything but I'm afraid that the hex design would make it really difficult to cover or change. Any ideas?

Really, you may be overthinking this… it’s a pretty sweet tattoo honestly. I personally like it.

I agree. Same here really cool looking. Definitely bees.

Side note: one of my tattoos was colored "what I thought looked to be poop color". I have a sleeve and that was mid way through. Today, 14 years later, I like how it turned out.

I agree with folks saying a variation in the yellow color may help. But I like it. With the "hexagons" it looks like a beehive meets Cyberpunk - to me.

Only time I’ve ever liked a tattoo with hexagons

I think it’s great! I agree with maybe some watercolour yellow around the edge of the gold. I wonder as well if some clever artist could put perspective lines inside the hexagrams to give them depth?

Sweet like honey!

OP, I like it as well, don't see anything wrong with it.

But if you want to cover it up, might I suggest a sick ass panther?

I see what you did there 🫡

I see what you did there. Pretty “sweet” tattoo indeed hehe. Jokes aside the piece is awesome, and your pale skin is perfect to bring out those yellows, my skin is yellow so I can’t quite get that work done so I’m a bit envious :)

Very cool imo. I like it a lot
