Nylons you can easily see tattoos through are kinda rare even here in the pre-apocalyptic world.

Except when the nylons _are_ the tattoos.

Wow. I’d never seen / heard of those. They seem to all be for arms.

Searching for the same idea for legs found a lot of socks intended to cover up real tattoos, but no hose / socks printed to resemble tattoos. I didn’t try very hard.

Makes me wonder if the opposite is the case-- has anyone ever gotten tattoos of, say, fishnet stockings on their legs? I know some people have gotten permanent eyeliner tattooed on the insides of their eyelids-- _that_ must not be a pleasant procedure.

I’ve seen women with a leg garter tattoo, just the top lace usually, but never the whole leg.

Pantyhose with tattoo-like decorations weren’t hard for me to find… once I turned on safesearch. Without it on.. damn, it didn’t get the point of my searches at ALL, and I’ll leave it at that.

I’m guessing that maybe you haven’t seen many women with tats on their legs who also wore hose, but trust me, unless the hose is really dark or deliberately opaque like tights, tats can be seen easily through them. Finer details get blurred out, but there’s no question when they’re there under the hose. Upthread, in those “girl your mother warned you about” images, one of them was a somewhat decent AI-render of what a tattoo under pantyhose looks like. Not blurred enough like real hose would do, IMHO.

I wasn’t able to find any real life examples of what I’m talking about at all online, at least with safesearch on. I wasn’t really able to stomach trying to find what I was looking for amidst the totally irrelevant hits I got when safesearch was off. I suspect the reason I couldn’t find any “in the wild” pics of this that weren’t shopping sites (where the models would never have tats on their legs) is because pantyhose pretty much went out of fashion before the WWW got popular.

I should have started my search fresh; sometimes context from prior searches seems to color the results.

Amazon has lots once you (me really) ask for the right thing: **[Amazon : tattoo tights](https://www.amazon.com/tattoo-tights/s?k=tattoo+tights)**. To be sure, there are hits for brightly printed ones, or fishnet style or … . But also many meant to imitate tattoos.

I realized when I saw the ((double parentheses)) that meant my special game master custom instructions were active.

I’m sure more than one rock climber has wished for extra legs or arms when sorta stuck in a tough spot.

Bing now has the option to create free Sora videos. Only in 9:16, and with a several hour queue time for a 5 second clip. I made one today. It did not impress me.

Had a surprisingly hard time with this. Had all kinds of weird body contortions and human/magazine interpenetrations. This is the best of around a dozen images, at least the wider top can somewhat be imagined as the pages flopping open.
