Creating a tattoo for Maitreya

[LjHarris]

Hi everyone. I've designed an image I want to use for a tattoo on my Maitreya Lara body but, despite searching online for hours, I've been unable to find the tools I need to do it myself. Can anyone help me out please??? Thank you!

For tattoos the UV map for Maitreya and most other mesh bodies are the same as for the system body so you use the same UV template to get the tattoo in the right position:

You should be able to pick up the basic Maitreya developer kit with tatoo applier at the Maitreya store. But while you're at it, why not get the Omega kits for other bodies too. You can find them at:

With that being said, tattoo appliers for mesh bodies are all but outdated now that we have BOM (Bakes On Mesh) and I wouldn't bother with them at all if I was you. With BOM you simply use good old fashioned system body tattoo layers.

Thank you! I have all of those... I've designed the tattoo... followed all instructions... still can't get the tattoo to actually apply to the body... very frustrating!
