Oh, thank you so much! I recently downloaded the overlayer, but I've been hoping for some more designs--these are great, thanks again

Great stuff. I never used tattoo skins before because I didn't want them passed down genetically and this solves that problem nicely.

Keep up the good work

Wonderful! Can't get enough of your wonderful tats!
Now sims can have some old style ink! Thanks

Another excellent job! Real world tats too, I like it! My favorites so far are the two peacock tatoos, they're beautiful. Are your sets each going to be themed from now on? Please, keep 'em coming. :D

I vote fire and barbed wire and crosses next! Can't have traditional tats without fire, barbed wire, and crosses.

Maybe a "mom." Heehee

These look... so very good and real. Awesome job.

these are so beautiful. i'd love the pretty pin-up girl from the man's set 2 not only for my female sims (Amy Winehouse alert!!) but also on me.... i think she's gorgeous :D

thank you sooo much again, and i really hope you keep doing more tattoo overlays.

if you ask me what im thinking.... the answer is always the same.

WOW! Fabulous work! Now see me being confused. Will these override the first set you made? Or if we add these will they be in a separate ‘crate’?

Hey, jaideen, these are a separate object with a new GUID, so you can have them all. I will make more, and you can have those, too. My tester house is starting to fill up with crates!
@ Midnight Voyager: I intend to do some more "modern" vintage tattoos, like the biker stuff. I almost did a Mom tattoo from Sailor Jerry, but I hate stuff in English in my game. Do you know the Simlish for Mom?
@absolutelyfabulous: I love the pin-up girls, too. A lot of Sailor Jerry's were to racy for MTS2, though. I will definitely do a pin-up collection, but, if I have to, I might upload at SexySims2. I have to see how the tats I choose look, and how the mood strikes me.

WOW you're amazing! Thank you for these! And for the maxis ones!
I've tried playing around with these, making a hairy overlay for male sims (and females) but it always reverts to morague's original textures
I'll have to keep playing with it, or wait for someone else to perfect it.. hahah nah, thanks! I love these

Actually, another uploader here and I were discussing doing some body hair overlays. Don't know how long you might be waiting, but they are definitely on the way. As for female body hair, check Morague's upload at the adult site.

I love vintage things! These are so authentic too...beautiful! I'd really enjoy having one of the most "classic" vintage tattoos, "MOM", myself. I have a thing for Simlish too though, so I usually change the text over, when I download something with English or other letters.

SIMale on this site has a download available where you just type in the English, and it translates your English text into Simlish:
Quote:
*UPDATED 26/9* Simlish Font - Write Simlish with ease

VERSION 2.00 & VERSION 1.05

Translate written text from latin CAPITAL LETTERS
to simlish letters. With this font you can easily make consistant
sim-real posters, signs, logos etc. Just write the text, select it and change the font to the Simlish and you're done.

Here's the link: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=191325
Also, here's a small zip that has the text MOM in one of SIMale's Simlish fonts, if you want. It's .png format--black on a transparent background, so easy to use if ya feel like it.

Cheers!
Suzanne

Thanks, Suzanne, for the linkies. So, a "Mom" tattoo will definitely be in the works. I am currently working on two tattoo projects: another vintagey feel collection (I think), and some tattoos by xnymphetaminex uploaded as skin tones here. I have no ETA, but a week at least! Thanks, everyone, for your enthusiasm!

Damn boy, I think you just ruined my career
I've been trying to do this, but I just can't ...
I have no clue on how to this even with the tutorial...

my point: good work! I love these designs, I hated the first ones, ugly designs and such, but these, are great!

I know what you mean about the ugly Maxis Tattoos. In fact, I edited one to make it less ugly, but no one would notice but me. I just had one Sim, with those stupid tattoos, and when he graduated from Uni, they were gone, and it pissed me off. So I forced myself to do this. I did it wrong a bunch, but with some advice from Morague, finally finished it after, like, a month. So, it was a long road, but worth it for some permanent tattoos without the genetics. Glad you like them, hope to have some more soon!

You are a Goddess. I love Morague's concept, but the tattoos were kind of fugly. I place blame solely on Maxis. But these are great. I tried to make my own, but I almost threw my laptop across the room in frustration. So for my computer's sake, I gave up. Can't wait to see more from you

WOnderful, one of my favorite new downloads. I really appreciate the time and effort used to create this. However, I did have a problem : everytime I exit the game the tattoos disappear :*(, is there a way to fix this glitch?
