BluesPadwan I found the kanji I needed, scaled it up to my arm size in PSP 6, printed it out and then transfered the image to flash paper for the tattoist..lol..then did it again 'cause I did the lettering back to front : By inking the final image you'll give it some personal characteristics, don't forget japanese is just a language and people's writing is always slightly different. The thing about having the image on paper is that you can..lol..put it on your arm to see what it looks like. Oh shut up the lot of you ;) at least I'm being honest. I'm lucky as my nickname is a japanese word with two different kanji that I can pick. If you know any chinese people you could always ask them, the japanese use chinese letters mainly. Mon
