📋 About This Mod

This collection of tattoos is designed to be used from the COMPLEXION SLIDER MOTIVE: It is the only way I know to do multicolor tattoos with effects. V01 contains the original models and V02, additional ones. I\'ve just uploaded an extra file (Mix Textures) containing a mix of models from V01 and V02, younger and older, with different lipstick shadings as some of you suggested. WILL BE UPDATED SOON! Comments and suggestions are welcome! You can send me some posts or add them here, as you wish. Enjoy! Cheers, Khylian Instructions in the read me.txt and inside the zip files. Changes in the character looks when using the chargen of V02 main file, at the Black Emporium is probably due to the presets (please upload read me file)
