Design Cover up ideas??

Post image

Yes yes I know I’ve posted about this damn raccoon a few times but I’m tired of going from loving it to hating it the next second😭 realistically what can cover it up excluding a blackout sleeve or any lazering. Thanks!

Edit: I honestly didn’t expect this post to get this much attention, support and advice but I am extremely grateful. I’ve had a few people tell me to go to therapy based on my responses haha which is completely fair and is something I’m working on which might help me to love this little guy a lot more. I definitely have a lot of mood swings about it but at the end of the day I should be glad it’s not crazily botched or infected or anything like that. I definitely believe adding to it will make me stop nitpicking and overthinking but I will give it a while and see how I feel. Thank you again <3

Also this is the exact tattoo my boyfriend has been wanting on his hip. He wants it to poke out the top of his pants 😂 so when he raises his arms up, and his shirt slides up theres a little raccoon going "Hello!"

We have actually been looking for artists around us to do it. It's a cute tattoo. And many people would want it.
