unfortunately, I would have to tatoo over the scar tissue that is there and it would just look wrong.

K-
next time you're in town I'll give you one. I can do it out of the back of the Adventure Wagon.
Just another job skill I learned in prison.

Along with making license plates, eh? I'll keep it in mind.

Hmmm, we could just ink over the scars instead of a tattoo - the scar would give it dimension

I think the chain ring scars on the front of my leg wouldn't look right though...

Yeah, I like the thought of dimension, that's even better.

But how realistic is that? If it's a grease mark you're after then it's got to be the legs. It's all about the effect.

You could try a temp

Your post led me to dig deeper into temporary chain tattoos. Apparently in 2006 someone named Doc from TE was selling these on eBay. They don't seem to be available any longer from her, but there are other options out there. Hmmmm....

That's where I got mine!

I bought 'em directly from her via her post on TE. They were great fun! I sent my last ones to a TE'er who was in hospital after a bike wreck. Gotta have a bike chain tattoo in the hospital, y'know!

Now you're talking my language.
