When most people see an old tattoo, they see a mistake.

Ben sees a blank canvas.

This client came in with faded lettering and an old tribal band that no longer fit who they are. Instead of laser sessions or settling for something average, they chose a complete transformation.

Now, the journey begins with one of the galaxy’s most iconic bounty hunters—the Mandalorian.

And we’re not even finished yet. 👀

A great cover-up isn’t about hiding the past. It’s about creating something you’re proud to wear moving forward.

Now THIS is how you do a coverup. 😮‍💨🔥

People always ask…

“Can this old tattoo actually be covered?”

Sometimes the answer is no.
But when the right artist gets ahold of it? 👀

Ben Knotts took this faded old piece and completely transformed it into a bold Spartan warrior sleeve piece packed with depth, contrast, and detail.

This is the difference experience makes.

Strong blacks.
Smooth shading.
Smart design placement.
And creating something that doesn’t just HIDE the old tattoo — but completely replaces the energy of it.

Coverups are one of the hardest things to do in tattooing, and Ben absolutely crushed this one. 👏

🚫 THINGS WE WILL NOT DO AS A TATTOO SHOP 🚫
Part 1

We will NOT rush your tattoo just to fit more people into a day.

This industry has changed a lot over the years. Some shops are focused on volume. Get people in, get them out, move to the next one.

That’s never been our mindset.

Good tattoos take time.
Good placement takes time.
Good conversations take time.

Sometimes clients need a minute to breathe.
Sometimes they need help deciding placement.
Sometimes they need reassurance before their very first tattoo.

And honestly? That matters just as much as the tattoo itself.

Because this isn’t just another appointment.
This is something you’ll wear for life.

We’d rather spend extra time making sure it’s RIGHT than rush through it just to squeeze another client in the chair.

That’s just not how we do things at Porkchop’s. 👊

Cute? Yes. But still tattoo-shop approved. 😮‍💨🔥

Tyler Truong bringing clean lines and personality to every piece. 👏

This corset design is simple, feminine, and bold all at the same time — and the detail work is what makes it hit. The lace, ribbon, stitching, and shading all came together CLEAN. 🪡✨

Not every tattoo has to scream.
Sometimes the subtle pieces are the ones people stare at the longest.

Tyler’s been turning ideas into solid tattoos one session at a time. 👀

The Blue Caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland… brought to life by Ben Knotts. 🔥

Bold color.
Storybook nostalgia.
And just the right amount of madness. ♠️🐛

From the mushroom details to the checkerboard flow and dreamy shading, this piece feels like stepping straight into Wonderland.

Tattoos like this are why we love custom work so much — creative ideas turned into wearable art. 🖤

Today, we pause to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. 🇺🇸

Memorial Day is more than a long weekend.
It’s a reminder that freedom is never free.

From all of us at Porkchop’s Tattoo Studio — we honor, remember, and thank those who gave everything for this country.

❤️🤍💙

Tattoo people understand this struggle. 😂

One tattoo turns into:
• a sleeve
• then another sleeve
• then “well my legs look empty now…”

It happens FAST.

People see the finished tattoo.

But they don’t always see:
• the hours drawing
• the focus
• the detail work
• the pressure to get it RIGHT
• the trust clients hand over

This is what passion looks like in real time. 👏

Custom work by artists who genuinely care about what goes on your skin.

Some tattoos are loud.
Some whisper strength. 🖤

Soft florals.
Fine detail.
Faith woven into every inch of this piece.

This beautiful custom sleeve by Will Jacobs blends delicate flowers, hummingbirds, and Psalm 27:1 into something deeply personal and timeless.

“The Lord is my light and my salvation…”

That’s what makes tattoos powerful — they become part of your story, your healing, your reminder.

Beautiful flow.
Elegant black & grey work.
Built to age beautifully.
