Correct! The way the tattoo is made gives the smoothest result and looks as if the tattoo is really in the skin. But if you look closely you'll see that you hardly can see all parts of the tattoo at once. And at least you can alter the skin by laying the natural texture over the tattooed one and erase it only there where you want a tattoo.

Oh and Fisty: I like this panty a lot! Using the constrained group tool on all seams - like the rubberband you have in real panties, did the trick for me, even without resizing anything. Settings where:
Fold resistance 3.0
Shear resistance 10.0
Stretch resistance 50.0
Stretch damping 0.01
Cloth density 0.002
Cloth self-friction 0.0
Static friction 0.5
Dynamic Friction 0.02
Air damping 0.1

Please, don't misunderstand me. I love the texture with the tattoos.
But what I was thinking was what if I don't want to use the big tattoo on the side of her body or what if I don't want any tattoos at all? It sounds like you also have a skin texture without tattoos which is great. I can use as is without Tattoos or use the skin without to overlay the skin with tattoos and do as you suggested...get rid of those I don't want to use for a render.

The difference between getting tattoos on yourself and getting tattoos on a texture for a 3D figure is that as much as you love your own personal body tattoos you are not really sharing your body with others to make their statements..it is your own personal statement whereas on a 3D figure, sometimes you want to be a nut and sometimes you don't and having a choice is great. making those choices available is a wonderful way to add value to a good texture set...I think.

Some years ago I got into a heated discussion with one of the main principals at RDNA. She asked what I thought of a particular texture (INDUSTRIAL/SteamPunk). I thought it was gorgeous but did not like the painted-on pubic hair (often preferring "Turkish Delight "in the real world and in my 3D art) and commented on it and suggesting that instead of painting a red pubic hair to leave it hairless with labial detail and instead make tex and transmap for the pubic hair prop that came standard on V2//M2.

She got all bent. I bought the texture anyway and removed the stupid and I might add, badly rendered painted-on pubic hair and did my own thing with it . But it is a pain when the creators don't seem to understand the notion of offering "options" and use the resources available as standard with the figures they create for to offer options.

I am not criticizing but playing "Devil's Advocate" here as I have always done elsewhere...that's all.
