Hello! I'm planning on cosplaying Gunji from Togainu no Chi (XD Yeah, I've got some working out to do if I want a stomach like his by ASTL!) and I have no idea how to do his tattoos. He has a large black tattoo on his neck and chest along with blue and red tattoos on his wrists. I don't want it to rub off on my clothes either. Preferably inexpensive, but if it's not suggest it anyways please! And no one say permanent marker. It rubs off fast, smells terrible & leaves weird lines behind. XD Please suggest websites you've actually bought things from, as I don't want to be scammed. Edit: XD Oops. A picture reference might help. I'm cosplaying the guy on the left.  Edit 2: As you can see, he has a load of tattoos about the neck and shoulder area, and I really don't want makeup smudges on my jacket.  |

well colored hemp tattoos might work they are more of a stainer though . They stain your skin adn it stays for a while so probably not a good idea.

"Ancient Blue® Crystal Indigo is made from indigo plant, but has not been purified, and is alkaline like strong soap or wood ash. Batches may vary, so safety cannot be determined."  ; What does that mean? Edit: I don't mind stuff that stains for days. I like the indigo idea, but I don't like the color choices or the website selling it. |

Dx I couldn't get a hold of the game in time for the convention, so I decided I wouldn't cosplay him until I can get the game. ($70 for a ps2 game! Dx Yeesh!) Buuut! My friend Edward told me to use acrylic paint diluted with water & then to spray Final Seal (available at theater supply shops & online) over it. It worked great for my Faust VIII neck tattoo too. Good luck with your cosplay!!  I love Gunji, so I really want to see your cosplay when you're done! |
