Mathew Whelan, 34, Britain ’s most tattooed man, has had six painful laser sessions to get rid of hand, arm and shin tattoos .
He spent £30,000 covering his body – and one eyeball – with tattoos has now spent £6,000 having some removed to make way for new inkings.
He said: “I think of myself like an art gallery. After a while the art gets old and people want to see something new and that’s how I feel about my tattoos.
“I’ve had enough of them and I’ve run out of skin to tattoo on - so I thought why not get them lasered off and just start again”.
Martin, from Yardley, Birmingham , who changed his name to King of Ink Land , is waiting for the wounds to heal before getting new tattoos.
He said: “I can finally see the skin underneath and the laser process is a gruelling one. My skin is currently blistered- but that’s good because it means it is healing.
“Some of my friends think I’m bonkers, and it might seem odd to some people but to me I am a living canvas.”
“I can’t wait for the day to put new artwork in their place. It would be tomorrow if I had my way however I have to wait until the treatment to see when it completely heals.”
