Cover-up Tattoo - Godzilla Texture Concerns
I recently got a cover-up tattoo in May and while I'm generally happy, there are a few details I'd like to adjust. I'm concerned about the texture of Godzilla blending too much with the black background and want to know if darkening him and smoothing his texture is feasible. I'm also considering adding a spike to fill a gap on his back, but I'm unsure if these changes are worth it or if the tattoo is fine as is.
