I don't know how well this stuff work in reality but it looks useful for larping folks like us.  As so many of you may have characters with tattoos I thought this may be of interest.

Reminds me of those sweets you could get years ago that came with a free tattoo that you had to apply by first licking your arm and then pressing the paper to transfer the tattoo to your arm. I think they were made from food colouring.

Got it, germaline bubblegum. Smile

It's in hexadecimal

Very busy playing with a large hadron collider looking for..., well, hadrons I suppose.

It did me to, but hopefully it will last longer.   They claim up to a week but heck, they sell the stuff.   If it lasts the weekend well then that will do for me (and no, Olivia isn't getting a tattoo..)

The tattoo I wear on my hand as Kincaid is like the old bubblegum ones - and works brilliantly.

Well Harrison, the other eight did not hand in their reports to research, as they appear to have turned up dead, but we are still not sure why

It also means that if you are careful, you can have a massive tattoo as the sheets are A4 size.

Should we be graced with the Brigadier's presence again, it may make the tribal tattoo on the arm alot easier and as the image will be saved on the PC, it will be the same every time.  

It might be good for scars as suggested.  Thanks for that, as there are a couple of IC scars Olivia does have, and it would be nice to have the option of including them in the kit.

use spirit gum or make some scars up with latex - its fairly easy (well it was until the 5 litre tub of latex split whilst in a wardrobe).

Can always make a plaster cast mould to be able to recast the exact thing.

Copydex, liquid latex glue, it even comes with a brush and everything. Never tried it myself but others have.
