After tmd bugged me a few times, I finally got around to make the last changes. Apologies for the delay. I've scaled it to 80 mm, and optimized the resolution for print. Please let me know if there's anything else. It'd be a shame if you had to permanently wear a bad tattoo, because I messed up.

Osu!

Where's the "Tats by Nix" logo? You could make money off this.

Osu!

Yeah, tmd's tattoo will be the first template in my shop - "Honest Nix' Honest Tats". I'll just say it's a ward against evil, and the katakana are names of Japanese demons.

PROFIT!

Imagine the look on tmd's face when he realizes his "personalized tattoo" becomes mainstream.

Osu! Nix,

Looks really good - I might have one if you ever open that shop!

Now, what´s the kanji for 'Satan' and 'Metallica'?

No Kanji, just Katakana.

Satan
サタン

Metallica
メタリカ

Osu!

Now we can upset legions just by spreading the Katakana for "I sold my soul to Santa!"

Osu!

Tat update - having messed about with cut outs Mrs TMD insisted on it being down sized, my Kanku is actually 80% of full size too - so it;'s been reduced and is now with the Tattoo guy, I have told him how absolutely crucial the letter size is, PS Nix he was suitably impressed.

Will post a finished view.

Dear tmd,
He will fully understand the importance of the letter sizes if you show him some bat or ice tameshiwari.

OSU!

Dear tmd,
A Hell's Angels run place? Is it at the basement and you have to say a password before you are admitted?

OSU!

So the Metallica/Satan katakana DID come in useful after all
