I've seen several movies and television shows in the past with credits such as ...

"Tattoo Artist", "Body Art Make-up" or something like "Body Make-up by"

Do we need a new 'Body Art Make-up Artist' (or similar) credit for these roles, or would they be valid as 'Make-up Artist' or 'Make-up Effects'?

I think it would depend on the show as to whether I added them or not, but if I did I would add them as Makeup, not FX.

I'd love to be able to "+1", so to speak, but unfortunately I don't believe that "I think it would depend on the show as to whether I added them or not" actually answers GreyHulk's question... Locally that approach works fine, of course (and yes, I make very similar decisions in my local database, too), but for the online database... Not so much. Either we add them, or we don't.

I have to agree with Tim on that... it really shouldn't depend on the show.

I have to agree with Pete's agreement with T!M...either we add them or we don't.  In my opinion, we do as it is a form of makeup.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

Imho it doesn't fit til now in any of our categories, so I wouldn't add them until it gets included in the rules.

I never would have thought to include Tattoo and Body Artists to Crew data.

If they are to be added then they would get Make-Up Artist credit.

But, should they be included at all? I really don't know.

I did come across a "Body Makeup" credit before it was Julie Steffes in Mars Attacks!

Just checked the CLT and the only credits for her in Mars Attacks are the 2 profiles i did so could need removing?, i couldn't see any reason to leave her out though

I would think "Body Makeup" would be a valid credit - it's just specifying which makeup the artist did.

I'm not sure about including "Tattoo Artist" however.  Don't care either way though.

Okay, given those credits I'd definitely give Magrath & Reece-Thorne a makeup artist credit, since the tattoo part is also attached to a perfectly valid role.
