	Familiarize yourself with [[Creating Tattoos]]. The tools you use to create scars are the same. The techniques you use to apply scars are the same. But scars are much more subtle, and you have a much more restricted tool set in creating them. Depending on the scars you're designing, you may want to combine them with translucent tattoos to "tint" the scars and give them a more naturalistic appearance.

Depending on the scars you're designing, you may want to combine them with translucent tattoos to "tint" the scars and give them a more naturalistic appearance.

			When exporting your scar files, you have the option to (and should) use "8-bit file" or "8-bit PNG." Scars do not benefit from "alpha channels" that carry transparency information like tattoos do. 8-bit PNG will make your character file smaller, and that's valuable in online play.
