I found the font on a picture and I want to know the name of the it so I can use it for a tattoo.
Any help would be appreciated.

Can you share an image of the font?
You’ve probably thought of it, but for things like this I just enter “list of fonts images” in Google. If I can narrow it (serif or not, stuff like that) I do.
Maybe a print shop would know by looking.
Can I ask what new ink??? Fun!
^^^^^^. what the cookieman stated. I have used it many times.
Thanks @cookieman I couldn’t find the exact font but this really helped.
@canidmajor I am getting a few lines of a Bukowski poem on the outside of my forearm.
Lovely! I am due for another one soon.

What’s the viability of showing the picture to your epidermal artist?
If that is a viable option, it might be even better than naming the font.
@Brian1946 Because the picture only has so many letters and I need to know what the letters I’m using in my tattoo look like so that the font is consistent.
