LMX Tattoo Creator — Design Tattoos In-Game + a Full Tattoo Shop Included

Stop hand-writing overlay XMLs in OpenIV and CodeWalker. Design custom tattoos from inside your game — on your actual character, live — and export a complete, drop-in addon tattoo pack in one click. Then sell them without installing anything else: the bundled LMX Tattoo Shop auto-detects every pack you build, ships 1,400+ GTA Online tattoos, previews everything on the player's ped before they buy, and charges through your framework.

Two products in one purchase: the only in-game tattoo designer with a real-ped live preview, and a complete zero-config tattoo shop.

⚡ What it does

🧍 Design on your REAL ped, live — the editor opens with a camera on your character. Paint or paste a design, place it with zones + sliders on a body map that matches the engine exactly, hit Apply Live and it's on your skin in seconds. No restart.

[[ frameworks : esx, qbcore, qbox, standalone ]]

📦 One-click complete pack — Build Pack outputs a ready-to-ensure resource: overlay XML, stream .ytd, fxmanifest, auto-discovery catalog, and ready-to-paste config for qb / illenium / vms / rcore shops.

🏪 A full tattoo shop, included — auto-detects your packs (zero config lists), 1,400+ GTA Online tattoos built in, live try-on with 👕/👖 shirt & pants toggles, buy-once ownership through ESX / QBCore / Qbox, synced to every player, persistent with no database. 

🖌️ A real editor — layers, undo/redo, brush, text with fonts + outline, emoji/sticker picker, wipe-to-transparent, heal, fill, eyedropper, and Ctrl+V logo paste.

🗺️ Placement that just works — body zones, position/scale/rotation sliders, click-to-place on a front/back body map. Shoulder means shoulder.

💾 Projects — save multi-tattoo collections and keep building across sessions.

🏆 Why LMX

• ✅ Zero external tools — no OpenIV, no CodeWalker, no Photoshop. Design → placement → live preview → finished resource, all in-game.

• ✅ The shop is included — other tools stop at the export; this one ships the storefront too. Or plug your packs into qb/illenium/vms with the included paste-in config.

• ✅ Standalone — no dependencies. ESX, QBCore & Qbox supported for permissions and payments.

• ✅ Verified format — the exporter was built against real shipping tattoo packs and validates every name-chain link before zipping, so packs render instead of silently failing.

• ✅ Featherweight — near-zero idle cost; only works while designing/shopping.

• ✅ One-time price — buy once, own it.

• ✅ Backed by support — dedicated Discord, full GitBook docs, and a creator the community trusts.
