First Timer From Massachusetts

[Nicholas Belmore]

Hello all,

My name is Nick and I am interested in lettering tattoos and the relative feasibility of fonts. I am trying to be as informed as possible when I go in for my first tattoo.

I currently have a question I hope to resolve:

I would like two forearm tattoos, one on the "palm-down" side, and one on the "palm-up" side. My question is: are my chosen fonts realistic choices?

Here's to a future full of love, laughter, and ink,

-Nick

Those fonts already look like a computer approximation of hand-drawn, so why not get the real thing? It'll look much nicer. I assume you have looked at artists in the Boston area?

I have looked at some, but I have found it hard to find many script related portfolios. Any suggestions on how to find an artist who is skilled in hand-drawn script?

Or can you suggest any other fonts I should take a look at?

The Boston Tattoo Convention is in less than a month. I suggest you go and scope out some artists.
