Tattoo Lettering Styles
March 5, 2010
I've been doing a lot of digging for different tattoo lettering styles for my sleeve. I want the sleeve to be themed, but I also want to mix in pieces of my life that are important to me. Maybe a quote that I live by, and definitely my kids' names and possible birthdates. My son just turned three and my daughter is one, and I really want them to be represented on this sleeve somewhere.
Probably the most traditional style of tattoo lettering is pictured below. It's a standard tattoo font and resembles calligraphy. The forearms, upper chest, and abdomen are the most popular places for this type of tattoo lettering. I can't say that I'm too fond of this style.

Lower Back Tattoo Designs: Mushrooms

I don't know why this one appeals to me. It's not the typical type of tattoo I like. I think I just picture its owner as being fun and unconventional. And someone who like mushrooms. Yumm.

Another good crossover tattoo, combining wings with a traditional Christian cross:

Crosses come in all shapes, styles, and sizes, but this is an incredibly realistic effect:
