Techniques
I would like to animate on hands and whilst I think working on flash/Photoshop over the top of a video will be the easiest and quickest it will loose some of the character that pen on skin has, such as the bleeding lines etc. So I tried to make "temporary tattoos" with ink and paper.
"Temporary tattoos"
(1)
The basic cat shape I used
So this was ballpoint pen drawn very thickly
It left a faint mark but ultimately failed (though would be good for background images)
(2)
Next I tried white board pen, marker, and again ballpoint.
It left a mark, but bled rather a lot.
(3)
White board pen drawn straight onto the skin works rather well for a still shot but it;s relatively hard to get off.
(4)
However when using plastic instead of paper the white board pen comes off incredibly easily
It also leaves this very nice texture.
Ultimately when making the final video I would probably do a mixture of both flash and actual temporary tattoo
