Tattoos and larpers

BOO! HISS! Horrible pun!

I have only one Tatoo... I keep him around the island to help with stuff like letting me know when the next plane of visitors are coming in.

BACK TO THE TOPIC OF TATTOOS...

Does anyone here do Henna tattoos?  I was hoping maybe for some characters, they would wear/have tattoos for their characters.  I like the henna as it can be worn for only a few days (or if you work in an office like mine), worn and then washed immediately off using special soaps and such so the office folks don't get too upset.

Yes.  I actually do Henna,  and it's the reason i'll never get perm. tattoos.  It takes a bit of time, but you can generally get a weekend and mabye a day out of it.  I can personally vouche that it will hold up for at least two nights of intense raving!  And I think you sweat far more from raving than larping.  (Then again I play casters so I don't know about line fighters.)  The powder for it is really cheap,  and there are some places that you can also get henna "stamps"  to just powder over your skin for quick designs. 

Gus is obviously a professional .

I have two Henna sets... one thats a sort of air-brush stencil thing, and the other thats proper powder mix classic freehand henna.

Since judging by the PMs I'm getting there seems to be some interest, I will be attempting Henna tattoos on Friday before lay-on, probably around logistics (or wherever else i can find decent lighting). (Unless you were planning on doing it, Gus?)

Tips will be unnecessary but always appreciated

I may be one with such interest! I'd be willing to tip too.

I am not worried about the pain (too much). My main problem will be saving up for the money because I want a really detailed tattoo and plan to invest in a good artist. Since it's permanent I want the best for my buck.

As it should be!

Incidentally Jenny, "Reona" keeps confusing me, because I'm friends with the real Reona OOG

i had the same money problem when i went to get my wings done. everywhere i went wanted to charge me like $500 plus. what i ended up doing is looking into some good artists around the area at tattoo shops that were offering an all you can sit deal. If you think you would rather sit through the pain all at once instead of going back in sessions, i would suggest looking into that. It's better financially and I paid only $200 for mine. The way it worked was you pick one big piece you would want to get done (like a sleeve, back piece, leg piece, etc.) and you have from the time the shop opens til closing to get it finished. So i saved myself a good 3 levels in build
