>>22601 Hi Krogue. I am doing all my bruises and blood on the body as texture Layers that I apply using the Layered Image editor in Daz Studio. I am using the gimp as drawing software. I load a map of the correct bodypart (it doesn't have to be from the same character, any map from the same figure generation, in this case genesis 3, will do. I create a new layer and the paint. For bruises I use the airbrush tool and some brushes that already have a structure. I make them quite big, use two or three different shades of red and apply the sparingly so the bruises don't get too dark. When done, export the new layer only as a .png file that I the import in the LIE.

If you would like, I guess I could upload a few examples of such layers here.
