Nowadays you really have to search for a good tattoo artist. When my husband wanted a coverup on his airforce tattoo that he already had (the tattoo had started to fade and blend together) , we went to a tattoo convention where there were thousands of artists who were displaying their work. It's really an interview process, and looking at each of their portfolios to see what type of work they have done in the past.

P.S. my husband's coverup turned out beautiful. However, my favorite tattoo on my husband is the one of a beautiful cross honoring the passing of his mother. It's gorgeous and it was done by the same tattoo artist that did his coverup.
Yes, I'm pretty sure the Babby Joe guy was not an artist by any stretch.

My niece's BIL has his own business in FL doing tattoos and he is absolutely brilliant. He's a fantastic artist to begin with.

Your husband's tattoos sound beautiful.
