"Anytime I'm in the shower and I see a bit of skin it really annoys me - I need it covered."

Axar.az reports that County Down man Chris Dalzell admits that he is addicted to tattoos.

If you're looking for a part of his body that has not been inked, you'll struggle.

For some, the 33-year-old Bangor man is a living, breathing work of art, covered from head to his toe in colourful words and images.

Chris says he would like to feel more "accepted" by the public.

"I totally understand why I get judged - you don't see me everyday but once people talk to me and understand me than they are more accepting.
