My second tattoo !

J-537

I got my first tattoo 2 years ago when I was 23 in Portugal, its like this http://www.luckyfishart.com/knotsham.html . I have it on my left upper shoulder/arm. I printed that design out for the tattooist and he changed it a little to the way I wanted it. I love it and I like that type of style "Celtic" .

Now I want to get my 7 week old Sons name on my outside forearm "Daniel" .

Does anyone know what types of writing there are or even some links to some good sites ?

Thanks in advance for you help -

Thanks Altheus, LOL I'm still going trough the site eth0_ showed me !

Well I know one thing and thats where to go to get my tattoo done. I'm not sure of the name, but its off Mary Street in Dublin. My uncle got his last few tattoos done in there last week by a guy called Aaron...

And wow they are good !

I just found this cool site for writing/letters/wirds etc in different fonts - http://www.linotype.com/500/goudytext-family.html - on the upper right hand side you can write what word you want and it will show it you in the different fonts.........

I like this type of font, but maybe something more Celtic and with a knot work in the backround with some colour ! :dunno:

Would the place be called The Wild Eagle? I got my tattoo done there last year, and i agree, he is extremely good, takes pride in his work and makes sure everything is clean before he starts, His assistant (if you could call him that) showed me some of the tattoos he done that were in magazines and some awards he won. I've recommended the place to freinds looking to get tattoos. Top notch, I would recommend him to anyone.

It could be bennyx_o !

I think this guy is "Johnny Eagle's" grandson my uncle said :dunno:

My uncle got his first tattoo off Johnny Eagle him-self !

My uncle just said that the shop has TATTOO in bold big letters on the shop/wall !

I'll take some pic's of my uncles tattoos tomorrow and put them up !

They are lovely, as in the art sense ! -

Yea, it's The Wild Eagle. Like i said above, I'd recommend them to anyone, he's so talented, not only at giving people tattoos, but designing them too.

J-537

Yeah thats what my uncle said, he said just go in and have a chat with him and look threw the mag's and you and him will work out something !

I'm definitely going there now !

I can't wait to get my idea on to my arm !

ART = TATTOO = ART

Yeah aaron is brillant he's in wild eagle's which is one of johnny eagles' place's.
He will take anything you bring in and change to what you want it to look like.
He's a very skill artist and tattooist. I'd recommend him!!
He did my upper arm it looks fantastic!!! Although it is fading that's only because I have it 5 yrs now!! So he could've only gotten better over the yrs!!
I have been there in awhile tho!! But I know he did all the tattoo paint on the film rein of fire!!!

The place your talking about there is actually on jervis lane just off mary street, its not actually a johnny eagles place at all thats over by north earl street. I got my tattoos in jervis lane and the guy that runs the place really knows his stuff, a friend of mine got a total back tattoo from him which is totally amazing, i'll try to get a pic and stick it up for you to see.

Why do ya think it's called wild eagles??? Johnny eagle has alot of place's not just one! Aaron the tattooist is a mate of mine. My pic's are all on myspace.com. I don't have the engry to post them here!!!

On regards of the letters I think the best for these are the ones David Beckham has and the tattoo Tupac had on his chest.

Thats just my choice
