Does anyone know of a good tutorial to teach me to make a tattoo overlay to use on different Character packs?

 

I'd like to give the characters I have my tattoo's inside of poser.

 

Thanks!

I use Poser 13 and win 10

If you have a program like Paintshop Pro or Photoshop, you can create a transparent layer on top of an existing character texture, merge them down, and save as a different texture like "Billy Torso 002.jpg" so you don't overwrite the main image.  Then when you pull up the texture you can change it out in the materials room.

There are a couple of programs out there, such as DAZ's LIE (Layered Image Editor) that work in DS but require .png files and I can't seem to get my older copy of Paintshop Pro to actually save them as a transparent .png.

If you find a good tutorial, let us know, ok?

The link is rather old and does not take into account any SSS or gamma correction if you are using the current versions of Poser.  

Thanks ya'll!  I'll check out the link.

 

Cedarwolf....Thats what I'm currently doing.  I just know that if I put the time in to make the overlay it'll cut out the extra work I have to do on the front end.
