some concept art for what a tattooing pen would look like in valicia. it requires a mixture of artistic skill, magic knowledge, and concentration to use these machines.
the process of tattooing is painless for the person receiving the tattoo; the ink becomes part of the tissue affected, and in the case of fur it even grows with the fur!
however, the tattoo is well and truly permanent, it cannot be taken off even with surgery!
[though you can cover it by inking over the tattoo with another color i guess??]

this one goes straight into scraps!
