Default Stick on tats for paint effects?

Read through the "paint sticky", and read where you could use stick on tattoos on the inside of the body for images that would show through after paint. I've been searching all sorts of "tribal" style images for the body and was wondering, before I go and buy a bunch to experiment with,has anyone tried or used this method with success???
If you have, could you please post some pics and give some feedback as to how it worked for you.
also, has anyone tried the "glueing a picture to the inside of the body before?

its pretty easy to make tribal style masks if you're willing to put in the time to make them

I've glued lots of pictures inside tons of different bodies. Magizine pictures work best, but you can use pictures printed off the computer, they just bleed some. If gluing is what you want to do, it's well worth the like $6.00 for some of "xxx" brand glue. It is specifically for this purpose. dries fast and clear!

Does it matter if they are color or just plain black? I haven't seen any on the out side of an RC body, how do they hold up, or do you just replace it when it scratches off? I want to get something cool done for my girls B-day on her TJ body, but I don't want to make it look like a 3rd grader did it. I might give the picture glueing a try as well. I don't want a stick on tattoo with words coming out backwards through the plexi.
