Ultra-Detailed Tattoos for Lego People

9:00 PM - July 29, 2010 - By Rico Mossesgeld - Source : Tom's Guide US

A clever advertisement for a pen shows just how fine it is.

A new advertising campaign promises that the tips of Pilot's "Extra Fine" pens are small enough to render complicated drawings on Lego figurines. The pens' tips are 0.25mm thick, and use rolling ball points to transfer the ink from the repository to the canvas. Among the figurines advertised were a biker, construction worker, criminal, and even a Lego girl with a tramp stamp.

Now we're not sure how well Lego figurines retain ink on their bodies, or the permanence of the art. But it's still cool a bunch of Lego people finely tattooed. Pilot extra fine pens are available from Amazon in variety of colors and bundles. (Thanks Escapist!)

You could make some really nice pen art with that, it'd take a long time but it'd be definitely worth it.

It may be a stupid question but is this just to do pen arts?
It seems that text written with these pens would to small to read...
Ok, it could be nice for cheating during exams ... ;)

Topless lego girl with a tramp-stamp. Didn't think I'd be seeing that today.

Wow, tramp stamp on a lego girl. Filthy plastic slut! haha. Bet she's had more plastic pieces snapped into her than an erector set!

Tramp Stamp. I love it, I've always called it a cum target.

I strongly feel a mild dosage of ban hammer is needed for the above poster...

Something made me think immediately that is was photoshopped... Maybe it can be done but that looks way too friggin intricate. That's just my opinion.

what kind of woman is topless but wears a bikini bottom, has 6 holes, death snapping grip hands, has a tramp stamp and is fun to play with for all ages?

certainly not Jane, she is busy playing SC2! one energy drink later and a broken promise not to write this my-my-my-my-my the comments we make when the women aren't looking!

okay going back to getting my butt kicked by terrans and protoss

My usual pen is 0.5mm but I regularly use a 0.05mm pen in my work?

This site sure has changed. Fine tipped pens make the "news" followed by comments!

C'mon, these are just big lego pieces, not small pen work.

I call fake. Lego hands aren't shaped like the ones on the biker, they're equal-length on both sides of the grip.
