Tattoo, near you.

Re: Tattoo, near you.

I'd say do what Robbin used to do, and have your tattoo guy just airbrush it. I'm thinking the pigments they use on the skin might be a little thin on wood, and it would bleed out into the grain and look like total shit. Just a theory mind you.

Plus I doubt the mags would work on wood like you're thinking. You're better off having it engraved, and airbrushed if you wanna go for the 3D look.

I vote you take some wood in there and have him try it out. Why not? If it works, you can do it. If not, hell it was only a piece of wood and he probably wouldn't even charge you as I'm sure satisfying his curiosity would be pay in and of itself.

Whatever you do, post the result please!

I agree with the airbrushing would be better idea, but a couple heavy coats of latex paint might come close to a skin like surface, I am sure the ink would bleed out on raw wood.

i wonder if anyone is doing laser engraving? Not sure if can be done on paint, but it can be done on plastic & metal. i think you could do cool stuff on pickguards, truss covers, EMG pickups and covers on back of the guitar.

Hmmm, instead of a new tattoo, maybe I can get some laser engraving on my body! [img]/images/graemlins/idea2.gif[/img]
