Think I Could Cover This Tattoo Up?

[viarice]

A week or two ago I got this tattoo of ocean waves and the artist did not do a good job on the waves. I am interested in getting a cover up and was wondering if this is doable? Obviously the colors would need to be darker and even then maybe black/grey?, not sure if this is possible. Thanks.

covering the new one with something like the 2nd photo? No. 

Covers work best when it can blend into a larger piece. If you're wanting to stay small you're going to need to lighten it with lazer (after at least a fair amount of healing time).
