The new Expansion Pack is revamping the Tattoos system as you know it!

Tattoo features and the way you can apply them to your Sims are getting completely revamped with the upcoming EP release for The Sims 4. Including options to layer different tattoos, place them anywhere on your Sim’s body and paint anything on your Sim!

All of the new Create A Tattoo Features will be tied exclusively to the paid 40USD release through the new Tattoo Skill.
