Bacteria that are engineered to infect epidermal cells and manufacture brightly colored pigments. They work like anthrax or botulism, but instead of deadly toxins, they leave behind color proteins found in chameleons or fish. When you are happy with the color and pattern, you take a mega dose of Anti-Tatootics
