Yeah, you said that the previous tattoo thread was old. Yeah and then you add to it and bring it back. that makes it fresh again and when you ask if there is more, then we tell you to do a search. And now we are here

... sometimes the best tattoo is done at home... fun, too..

... get a no-blot pencil from the art store (actually go into an art store rather than shop online, this way you have fun dealing with the employees of an art store when you ask for a no-blot), along with some vellum or tracing paper... with a #2 dixon ticonderoga (or similar), draw your design on one side of the vellum... on the other, trace with a no-blot pencil... rub some clear speed stick on your skin and lay the art "no-blot" side down & rub... peel up and viola, you have your design... wrap thread around a needle and dip this in india ink... poke sharply and firmly along the outlines... be patient... in no time you'll have a great tatoo... drink beer...

You can also do it with "real thin bamboo shoots" the ol' fasion way. Hurts like hell!!! but it's the real deal. Try 20 at once for the Tribal look.
