Can Someone Guide Me Through How To Make Custom Tattoos as Accessories?

[ohayitstiffanay]

I am submitting a fanfic for a contest online and I need Bill Kaulitz's tattoos, he has one on his forearm, his hand and on his side and no tattoos online even resemble them, so I need to make them myself, however I have no idea how to create objects for Sims 3.

I used to be a wizard at Sims 2 creations, but I completely forgot the whole process and I'm sure this is different.

I am working on a mac, could someone tell me the objects I'd need and what to do to make them?

The fanfic is due in 2 weeks, just saying. (:

Well, if you want to make an accessory tattoo, you'll need CTU (there's a separate version for Mac, make sure you get the right one) and a graphics editor. The process is exceedingly simple, and there's a tutorial on it here (http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=385639) (found in the tutorials index here (http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Tutorials:TS3_CTU_Tutorials)).

You also, of course, have the option of making a tattoo which works with the Ambitions tattoo system and the XCAS mod (to allow you to place tattoos in places other than those available in the game by default), for which you would want to use Tattooinator (http://www.modthesims.info/d/410592).
