Manias de Geek has just written a better tutorial for the picture mixer than we have on our own site. Welcome Portuguese-speakers!

Since our shoulder tattoo picture mixer design was getting some interest, we’ve added a more powerful back tattoo design. It looks like this:

Make Sweet Tattoo

You can move your tattoo around the body and scale it as you like. Just prepare it as a “png” image with transparency, upload it, then work on placement. This way, you can get an idea of how the tattoo might look on you.

The body in the design is from the excellent makehuman project.

There’s a new Book Design added to the picture mixer. It lets you put a custom front and back on a 3D book model. If you want, you can animate the book flipping from a view of the front to a view of the back, and tell a little picture story that way - just hit the “make animation” button. Remember that after you make an animation, you can adjust its timing. It is often good to add a longish pause between the end of the animation and when it starts over again, so as not to make it too overwhelming visually.
