Tattoo Font Styles

Each artist has a different approach to tattoo fonts. Below are a few of my favorite computerized and hand-drawn fonts. They are free for personal projects but please check each one before using them commercially.

• Billion Stars
• Quilted Butterfly – A hand-drawn font with an edgy vibe.
• Angel Tears
• Bastarda
• Tattoo Shop – This font incorporates geometric shapes and is fun to use in projects with a vintage theme. Think Victorian-era circus or a saloon in the wild west.
• Bleeding Cowboys
• Blood and Blade – This family of fonts is free for commerical use!
• Brother Tattoo
• Delinquente
• Ink In The Meat
• Jacked Eleven – A hard brush font with plenty of special characters.
• Moonlight Shadow – One of the coolest fonts for a witchy aesthetic. I’ve used it in Halloween projects and a grimoire.
• Reed of Love
• Naughty Nights – Playful tattoo fonts like this one are perfect for an irreverant tattoo.
• Tattoo Ink – This is an old school, all-uppercase font reminiscent of the popular Sailor Scrawl. This South Pacific-inspired tattoo font is ideal for traditional American tattoo designs.
