The Jurassic Park figure has a big shoulder one. I think Road Pig has one on his chest. Lady J has two cat eyes above her muff.

You can always make your own waterslide decal tats. It's not to hard to do.

Mercer and Red Dog have them too.

The waterslide decals would be your best bet for specific ones.

I've always had the idea that you can make semi custom tattoos with the decals from those pinewood derby cars Boy Scouts sell. I've even seen decals for finger nails that might work.

a guy over on the Tank took the new Roadblock, painted a bad of black on his arm, and then used an exacto knife to scrap off the paint. He made a frigging awesome bull for the right arm and the swirl tribal pattern on his left.

You can or have someone that knows how to do it, there a few guys on here that can make waterslide decals.
You can pretty much make anything you want in a program like Photoshop. Then just print them out on decal paper. I'll see if I can do a couple
today and post them.

Yup, with a little practice they're actually pretty simple to apply. The biggest advantage to waterslides being the design possibilities are unlimited.

That would be a good way to do tribal stuff.

The thing with most tatts on customs is that customizers tend to make them look brand-spanking new.

Build n Brawl Undertaker arms... fully sleeved in black ink (good linework & details) & you could just add some touches of soft color for a "not so freshly inked" look...???

Hey yall!!! I thought about the water slide decals but all I found that was small enough would have been Ford, Chevy, and spark plug logos. I was hopein' that there was a fig that had some good ones already out.

Thanks for the heads up on makein' my own TOFUJESSE---Ill have to check into that.roposetoast: Thanks---RED---

Here are a couple I did real quick, just trying to show you what you can do. My printer started to run out of in that's why it smudged a bit. The tiger one is 1.5 cm x 1.5 cm and the other is .5 cm x.5 cm. The tiger would fit on the chest of a figure and the other on the shoulder. Oh and they are hi def they are just so small and I used my phone to take the pics

 

[K-Tiger]

Yeah, my printer is too broke-dick for decals.

Don't you have to have a special printer to print white, though? Not that many tat's have white in them. Just thinking out loud about waterslide decals...sorry...carry one.

^^^ An easy fix for any waterslide decal that contains white is to use white decal paper & then all the color/black parts of the design really pop on top of the white base...

You just use white decal paper.

Though Alps printers do print in white. Unfortunately they are notoriously finnicky, expensive and the company is out of business, leaving you to scavenge parts.

Goddamn shame. Really wish someone was still printing those 1:18 WWII US tactical markings.

Yup, I just print on white paper. Epson makes a printer that prints white but it's 7,000 dollars. Don't think that will happen. I found a tutorial online where a guy converts his epson to print white. Maybe one day I'll give it a shot.

Not that any of you guys are interested in stickers, but we have a couple of tattoo sheets for Dreadnoks available on the site.

I just recenlty ask Ratfink to do a custom tutorial on waterslide decals. He said he would post it up in a couple days. Check his facebook page.

Awesome guy, gives to the community his knowledge and wit, without asking for anything in return.

If you have a base coat painted, you can draw tattoos on with Sakura micron pigma pens. They just have basic colors but that's what I sometimes do for large tats that stretch across joints. You just can't touch the ink for 24 hours.
