My friend Trash in Campinas, Brasil tattooed these roses to cover up a large scar on a client’s belly.

For some reason it took me a while to see the bellybutton. I love those roses!
I like the scar. It gives the tattoo a nice trick-of-the-light aspect.
It took me a moment too to find the bellybutton. 😉
I quite like it–he did a great job.
I actually really like the scar, placement, and tattoo… I think they work well together. Some tattoos are amazingly photo realistic, but I like the simple statement of this one…
very pretty
Wow, great work!
oww Great work-EVER !!! Congrats TRash …
Very well done!
What is the scar from?
Looks about the size and shape of that crazy-big keloid removal posted a while back. Not the same person, is it?
I really love where this sits on the stomache.
#10 that was huge and it was on a guy and there were 3 keliods, and they couldnt remove teh middle one. i think this is very cool
Kinda looks like the scar resembles a sword going through the tattoo to me which is probably unintentional, but works extremely well. Nice work
I thought scars that broad (keloid) didn’t hold ink well? At least, that’s the advice I got when I asked about getting something done to cover up the scar on my wrist.
Still, this looks excellent. Simple, pretty, and the scar really adds another subtle dimension.
Wow this looks amazing. I wonder how much difference in pain there was going over the scar.
#13, that was the first thing I thought of! personally, i think it would have been cool to have had a sword going through the roses, directly tattooed in line with the scar…but i also like this as is!
How well would tattoo ink take on especially large portions of scar tissue?
I got pretty happy with it here, thanks as ever Shannon:)
I decided to answer some of the questions…#9, the scar was from a surgery after a motorcycle crash. I did’nt think about the sword back then, but I think that it would probably highlight the scar and not conceal it, but that would definetely be a nice concept for sure Thanks to you all and the kind words:)
Thats fair enough trash if the reason was to cover up more than excentuiate (probably spelt wrong) you’ve made the right choice. It’s a really clear piece of work ya got there.
