I noticed in a pic with Riley Reid in Sex-Art. Make-up artists seem to try to cover the tattoo on her right shoulder blade, but couldn't do it 100% so it's like a 50% opacity. Not just that but some other girls I've noticed that's being done to. Is it cause of a copyright thing? If it is that is fucking ridiculous when someone like Riley has her tats being clearly visible in some pics & vids and covered in others.

This is the first I've seen of tattoos being covered with makeup, but I have seen numerous pictures of women posing to hide their tattoos from the camera. Tera Patrick, for example, will most often be photographed showing her left side to hide the tattoo sleeve on her right.
I think it's porn producers recognizing that the great majority of porn fans do not care for tattoos on their women. I know I don't--small ones are okay, like Jenna's "Heartbreaker," but full sleeve or body work is a turn-off. Which is not to say that tattooed women don't have their fans--the success of Burning Angel is proof that they do--but I think most prefer women without ink, no matter how elaborate or well-done.
If I'm wrong--then why do so many porn star with tattoos try to hide them for the camera?

Yeah you know Riley's vertical Chinese symbol tat that goes down her spin is clearly visible in that sex-art video, yet the tat on her should has been attempted to be covered up, it doesn't make sense.
