(X-post to D to the M)
All right, calling all clever, crafty Nexusites; I need some help.
Last April, I went to a convention dressed as Spider. It took 9 hours of Sharpie work to get all the tattoos down, but I managed second place in the contest, and a free ticket to next year's convention.
Now, to the question (No, I was not just showing off!): I want to do this again this April, because I really liked the costume, and it got a lot of compliments. What I don't want is to spend another 9 hours being tattoo'd and missing the actual convention-y bits! So, I thought to make a skin-toned suit with all the tattoos on it. The problem: I don't know how to go about that. I need something skin-tight and skin-toned that will hold some form of black ink nigh-permanently.
Suggestions, anyone?
