I want Roman Numerals spelling out a special date for me, but no parlours seem to do Roman Numerals!

2006-09-04 03:42:57 · 16 answers · asked by Huckleberry Finn 2 in Beauty & Style Skin & Body

This will be my third tattoo! Having previously gone for pre-designed "off-the-rack" ones!
I want something unique for me - will definitely shop around!

First of all, go to a better place or artist. A tattoo artist, is exactly that, an artist and should be able to do almost anything, especially if it is a custom piece. (and roman numbers are especially simple, seeing that they are just letters). If the number of places you can go is limited because of where you live, then just draw the numbers out yourself and take them to an artist.
Just be sure this is something you want, because tattoos are permanent. I have three and they are all custom pieces, and the tattoo artist was able to give me exactly what i wanted, without me actually taking in the initial design, and i absolutely love them. Hope you get it done, the way you want!

well what number do you want? jsut write down the number you want but in roman numerals then get the artist to copy t. easy

eg 33 XXXIII, 126, CXXVI

Ah unless you havent got a clue how to actually write roman numerals yourself, then I have a question for you? WHY ON EARTH ARE YOU HAVING SOMETHING TATTOOD ON YOURSELF THAT YOU DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND????

Find the numerals your self, print them, or copy them, then take them to a tattoo parlour and they should do it for you, if not, then sorry.

You're not going to a good artist then. Get what you want off the internet, print it out, and go back, explaining what you want, where and how. They'll quote you, and you can decide.

Just draw it up yourself, use word or whatever to put in the numerals.
Or go to better tattoo places!

Then you are going to backwards tat shops. Good tat artists can draw anything, go to another shop
