In 2016, New Zealand-based tattoo artist Benjamin Lloyd posted an image of a friend's young son, with a skull and roses design airbrushed on his arm and torso. It looked just like an actual tattoo, even though it was just spray painted on the young boy. In less than a day, Lloyd's photo went viral, garnering over 4,00,000 likes in just a few hours.
He had captioned the photo with a promise: if his post got at least 50 likes, he would go to a children's hospital and give the kids there airbrushed tattoos to cheer them up. After his post got hundreds of thousands of likes, he had no choice but to keep his promise. "The kids are so amazed. As soon as they get the tattoo it boosts their confidence," Lloyd said.
"The only bad thing is that they don't want to take a shower afterward." Benjamin Lloyd takes around nine minutes to complete one of his amazingly-realistic tattoos, which he creates using stencils and then spraying freehand.
