Title: EVE tattoo designs
Post by: Lex Steel on 07 Dec 2010, 15:21

So, Im starting to fiddle a bit in Daz 3d, but what im looking for are some EVE tattoo design (not for me! for the images and things i make) Like, the face tattoos and stuffsies, anyone got a few or willing to try and design one similar, (just normal transparent BG png images) post here pls? Im sure this would be helpful for other GFX users too (if there are?)

Maybe have a chat to Inquisitor K'han. I don't think the things you're looking for exist yet, but he's had a look at some options for renders like these:

Inasmuch as there are tribal styles (I expect a lot of variation) I tend to think of Brutor tattoos as Pacific-influenced, especially by the whorls of Maori moko. There may be render elements out there which have already been created along these lines: worth a look.

Mata, that picture is fucking haunting. Really not much else I can say. Wow.

Inquisitor K'han is doing some very nice work. This is one of my favourites, though.

That picture is very good. It immediately brought this one to mind:

Saxon, I believe that was one of the inspirations, yes.

(My first response to K'han when I saw the image was pretty much identical to Saxon's, so I've had this confirmed. :) )

Its kind of a non sequitur but, I love that picture because, being based on that famous NatGeo pic, the Matari kid's pic immediately pulls a real-world context into the game, so you can immediately get the same context from an in-game point of view.
