I'm looking for cursive fonts for my tatoo, and there are bunch of them. I don't know which one to choose.

I know many of yous are creatively inclined, thought you might know the most beautiful cursive font's names, if you think you could help me, please name some of the fonts name here, preferably free fonts that I could get online, thank you in advance.

Learning Curve, Alex Brush and England are three cursive fonts, that I'm aware of.

I'm a bit of an enthusiast, but I don't much like cursive fonts at all.

Good hand lettering on the other hand, would be custom and more beautiful.

Choosing a font would make the spacing awkward and weird without an expert to kern and space the letters properly.

So true, I didn't realized that, man.

It's like another idea of my tat design for my right arm, this DNA double helix design kept evolving in my head, thought of drawing it myself and it went nowhere.

I'm not giving up this time though, healingme4me, you showed me something there, some fonts name sure are interesting, arn't they? I was also looking up on period fonts as well, then I came here. Why does it have to be so difficult?

Calligraphy, I guess I could do that with a pen tomorrow!

Thank you all, and btw do all of you have helloween planned out? We don't have it here, it's all commercialized and kinda makes me angry.

If I were to do some costuming, I'd love to do 'Special Effects Makeup'!! I hope y'all have fun, be nice to the kids, eh?
Thanks for this!

On 21st, I'm getting a three letter tat on my forearm!

This morning I went on to this website and chose a font named 'Shelter Me', 'cos the name sounded fitting, I put the lettering on the usb stick and went to see this tatooist, and guess what? He does this elaborate tatoo calligraphy, so I changed my mind there and now he's designing one for me, I asked him to go nuts! I can't wait to see what he comes up with. This time it's really happening!

Kunstler script is a very sensuous and beautiful Font. I also have designed several tatoos in my line of work.

Calling for Typography/Fonts enthusiast for my tatoo
