Beyond our core styles, this collection gathers the unexpected: creative cover-ups, convention highlights, and experimental designs that found their way onto skin.

About Additional Work
Fixing or hiding old ink is more than just masking the past. It is about giving it a new life. Whether you have a faded design or a mark you want to transform, I take the time to map out a cover-up that blends with your skin tone and anatomy rather than just layering dark ink on top.
Covering up an existing tattoo is one of the most technical challenges in our studio. A successful cover-up requires understanding how old ink sits in the skin, planning a composition that uses the existing dark areas effectively, and ensuring the new design ages well. It is not always possible to simply tattoo over an old piece with a new one. Often, we need to rework the existing lines or incorporate them into a new, larger story.
This cluster also showcases our experimental side. You will see pieces like our travel-inspired stipple work and shots from the Pune Tattoo Show. These projects allow us to push our creative boundaries beyond standard symbols and script. Whether you are looking for a tattoo correction in Mumbai, or you have a unique, non-traditional idea that does not fit into a standard category, this is where we plan the execution.
If you are coming to us for a cover-up, the process starts with a consultation. We need to see your current tattoo, either in person at our Ghatkopar West studio or via a high-resolution photo, to assess the fading and depth. From there, we design a custom piece that prioritizes flow and longevity, ensuring you walk away with art you are proud to show off.
