My wife loves a verse out of a Metallica song:
"Trust I Seek and I find in You
Everyday Borrows Something New
Open Mind for a Different View
and Nothing Else Matters"
She wants that written on like a scroll. Questions are:
How big does the Font have to be to "stay" legible and where is the best place for it? |

I would say at least a medium size...
Maybe her back or leg...it could go on her arm to (depending on her arm size)
Also the type of font she wants would make a little difference in the size...if its a cursive type lettering the smaller it is the harder it would be to read...
Im having a similar tattoo done with a different song...I picked a gothic font..its a fairly descent size like a 7x7 square Id say |
