A simple, probably useless tutorial I made for people who were thinking of using fake tattoos for cosplay but have certain limitations.
Like me...who smiles too much causing those membrane tattoos to wrinkle...orz.
Also, I was testing out my makeup. Needs more contouring, it seems. And I can't seem to make myself look like a bishie.
EDIT: For the pencil step, my advice is to draw as hard as you possibly can when tracing. (Without snapping the pencil lead of course)
EDIT: Added a part 2fav.me/d4qo24c to give an example on what it looks like if the pencil and water step is done properly.

I suppose it depends on a persons preference of what they want to use but it works for me. I feel more comfortable with a more pencil like shape when I'm drawing and tried to use my left hand a bit but because I am not used to drawing with my left hand I did it mostly with my right. But I'm working on becoming ambidextrous.

oh my gosh THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was actually thinking of cosplaying Violette but I was so lost about the tattoo on her face and this was actual one of the first results that popped up when I googled "cosplay tattoo tutorial" xD Your tattoo turned out great, I gotta try this out some time~ C:
also, I have a question! Where did you get the template for the design? O:

I got it from above.
Oh wow, one of the first results that pop out? 0_o
I only did this on a whim because I hated spending loads of money...and then I thought that the tattoos were really hard to find....so I made the tutorial.
