Hi, im new to all of this so apologies for any stupid comments or blatently obvious questions i may come out with.

Anyway, to the point, im looking to get a tattoo in a few days, and am looking for a few fonts, or fonts similar to the ones im looking at.

The first of which is this piece, created by Mister Cartoon:


The font in which the cities are written in would be ideal, i know its custom work, but if anybody could point me in the direction of a similar font, that would be brilliant.

I am a big fan of Mister cartoons work, and the lettering in most of his tattoos is what im looking for. Any help towards finding the right font for my tattoo would be brilliant.

Thanks, Rob

Thanks for the link above, there are a few nice fonts on there although not quite what i'm looking for.

I'v noticed alot of tattoos in the U.S.A written in a similar font, especially in the L.A area.

I heard that it was a Hydro74 font although i cant find it there either.

Any suggestions ?

Bald Condensed

Also Alpine Script and Sarah Script by Charles Borges de Oliveira.

BB Skin Deep has a similar feel.

A lot of the scripts on Hydro74 are embellished versions of existing fonts (Hot Wheels, Autobahn and Armed Muzik are based on Sloop; Mighty Muggs looks like Sarah Script).
