use "multiply" layer mode and experiment with the amount of opacity.
also rasterize finished text and blur slightly, most tats don't have razor-sharp edges.
and black is rarely black, use a deep steely blue for a more natural looking tat
google some tat pics and sample the black areas and you'll see the color I mean.
