Would you have this tattoo lasered???

Whats up yall...(please bear with me) Remember saying I started out with some really bad work? Well, unfortunately, I was big into motorcross and high out of my mind one night, so I got the Yamaha symbol tatted on my left arm. (you know, the cricle with the tuning forks..I know..Im a dumb ass) Well the f*$%&+* shit artist that did it (this guy is the worst tattoo artist THERE IS...period) put the thing upside down. haha...funny times when your young. Then when I was in Fort Worth Texas one night, I wanted to get it covered up...man I didnt know ANYTHING about tattoos. Luckily the guy (his name was Freeway at Young Guns studio) was pretty smart and artistic. He drew up a warrior incorporating the symbol into the shield. Then my next tattoo was an skull peice on my inner biscep, done by a guy named Tom Berg at So Cal tattoo in Cali. Needless to say I never got it finished. And to top it all off....I got the stupid "Life and Death" symbol on my forearm. So to give some background to the warrior, I got Dave Hedyn to put some of his signature purple flames around the warrior. He kinda salvaged it....but If I could do it all over, I'd just get it lasered. See.....im going to go get the bottom half sleeve from Joe Capobianco in Jan, and I'd love to do a hot ass Japanese scene where one of his sexy chicks looks in the mirror and sees a demon mask (hanya) Im wondering if I should still get it all lasered, OR....let Dave at Iamtattoos.com continue to finish the half sleeve, and let Joe do the bottom???? I do have pictures.....But....I dont know how to put them up online for yall to view them. If you really wanna help me tackle this issue, hit me back with your real email, and I'll send them to you. Then maybe some of yall can give me your professional advice. Im sure Dave can add some colors, like some wood brown inside of the shield, some felsh tones, brighten up the eyes and do some things over again....and it'll come back to life. Right now, it just looks....Shitty. Overall, I dont like the way its positioned either. Hit me back and let me know what yall think. And remember, it'd be really hard to tell without seeing the pics. Peace

What I was also saying, was that I want Joe to do a full sleeve, to match my other Japanese style tattoo. Yall please hit me up, and let me send some pictures if you interested. Yall can tell me if it can be salvaged or not. My appointment with Dave is this Wensday, he will finish the top of the sleeve, and let Joe do the bottom. If your not familar with Daves work....well....he is definitely real talented. I have no worries about the direction he'll take it. Just look at those flames. But I'd rather have a entire flowy sleeve by Joey. Peace

Damn...I thought more epopel would want to see the tattoo than this. I guess Im leaning more towards keeping it than having it lasered. Its not straight up scratcher work (the flames arent at least), but the warrior is pretty damn reject looking. I was hoping some decent artist could look at it and tell me thier opinions about it.

Unless you can post it through some image hoster (it is as easy as signing up for www.geocities.com and uploading the pic then posting the link here), you probably aren't gonna get much of a response. Also, why are you going to get more work on it if you are going to get it lasered? maybe just have someone go over it and make it look better :) In the end, it's up to you. Which would you rather go through? cuz it sounds like you want to get rid of the crappy stuff somehow...how you are going to do it is your choice.
