Need help with font

[LupeTheWolf]

So I have an all day session with my artist tomorrow, we're adding the bull to my leg and background so I figured we could do a small tattoo that I've wanted to get.

I want to put Canis Lupus on my wrists, but there are SO many fonts out there. Can someone direct me to a good site for them or recommend some good ones? I want it to be legible but really fancy looking!

Your tattooer will have infinitely better font references than the internet. Or at least, he should... If he reaches for the computer instead of one of the many lettering books out there, BJ Betts will appear like a genie and smack him in the face.

custom script is the best. no internet font can compare to some hand drawn, nice, flowing script. theres plenty of books, i have one called the lettering guide. dont settle for some computer generated font.

He said he would draw up a few scripts for me to choose from since I'm indecisive on exactly what I want but he asked me to look around too and if I find something I really like to bring it in!

For people who are a bunch of sheep, you sure ask us a lot of questions, huh?

Maybe look at script/letting tattoos a bit more and wait a bit longer to get this tattoo? You have a lot of time to get tattooed!

lupe is on a mission with her ink

True, and maybe I'm becoming a cranky old man well in advance of my years, but I think that when somebody is shown respect, a little bit of respect and politeness isn't too much to ask in return.

I'm not in the peak of knowing my shit, and regards in my signature, I love just about anything with wolves. Lol I'm waiting till my next appointment so he can draw up custom script.

Wrist scripts are soooooooooo awesome.

:rolleyes:

Instant regret, 3..2...1.

I don't mind them unless they're upside down.

I get nervous when anyone young gets heavily tattooed fast. Personalities change drastically as you mature

I've got Latin script on my wrists and I don't regret it. It's been a little over a year, so if the regret ever comes, it certainly won't have been instant.

As for fonts, I just Googled "cursive fonts" or "script fonts" and poured over hundreds of fonts over the course of several months before settling on one called "Lavanderia" (that's Spanish for "laundromat" - kind of makes me like my tattoo even more).
