Yup. Also another point is how the ink will react with leather that has been oiled etc and the longevity of the ink. The old inks could last twenty plus years with detail and colors still there. Today I see a lot of tattooing that needs to be refreshed after 3 or 4 years.

I checked out a couple of YouTube videos. seems its a little hammer-like deal that just puts down the impressions then uses regular acrylic paints to color the impressions so its not really anything like a tattoo at all. No ink under the skin. Kind of gimmicky if you ask me, BUT its a way to learn, use and gain some real artistic skills and would look better IMO than a cut and paste laser image no matter how well executed. Sorry folks, I'll take the human effort over machines any day.

If money weren't an object i would probably try it out but it is so i might try to recreate the idea with homemade tools. LOl a thick pointed stylus and a mallet. 

LOL after I wrote this i searched YouTube again, there is a video on how to make one out of a 60 dollar tat gun. so if you have the urge to try and don't want to spend a lot of money.......

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.
