    thanks:)I just did it with a safety pin and indian ink. I realli like the feeling of something puncturing your skin so was pretty happy doing it to myself it was so thereputic letting the ink flow into the right spots. I realli had to dig the pin in deep though so it took about a half hour.

    it's simple. I've seen people just trace on the shape they want and then you just pokepokepoke over and over it:)

    Wow that looks so awesome :O I was thinking of doing one myself, but my bf warned me off them... But I have pierced myself and stuff so meh xD Just need to think of a design lol.

    Where did you get the ink from? And did it hurt more or less than a gun tattoo?

    My friend got one done in jail by using paper and deoderant to trace the stencil onto his skin then they melted down some paper and toothpaste to make the ink and did the actual tattoo with a sharpend staple and it looks pretty tight. Only thing is when you use india ink the color usually fades green a few months later. I suggest buying ink off the internet thats made for tattoos and still apply them yourself that way the color will stay

    yeah i have a bunch of home made tattoos. now i gotta get pictures, i guess.

    and btw, india ink doesn't fade to green. wtf? its pure carbon black. i've had some of my india ink tattoos for 5+ years and they are still black. not grey, not blue, not purple or green.


    lux, its looks real good.

    I dunno man all the tecatos around here get theirs done with that method and theirs look green and faded but i guess everyones different i personally like homemade tattoos , the machines are pretty easy to make as well i was just sayin that the real ink isnt too expensive and is easy to find
