    Hi Tlaw
    Welcome to the forum.

    My opinion (and that is all it is)

    The font is fine – in fact I would even bolden it out and also add some outer shading to create some shadows behind the letters. if you are gonna wear your state name wear it proud! I would also have the wording bent around the state so not to cover the outline of it.

    The bit I am concerned about is the state of kentucky. The outline sure but what are you going to have in the inside?

    Basically you will have a big gaping blank bit of skin.

    Is there anything you could put in there to make the tattoo more ‘finished’? I am brit so scuse my ignorance – but i would suggest maybe;

    A screamin eagle head in the centre
    Local flag (dunno do you have state flags or emblems?).
    Stars and stripes
    A cow/ bull skull

    Anyhow I think with a bit more work you can take a good tattoo to been a great tattoo.

    Take Care

    Kentucky, the ole Bluegrass state. Ohio’s retarted little brother to the south.

    Sorry, my wife’s from Kentucky, so we’re constantly bagging on each other’s home state ^_^

    So, for the middle, you could get a brother and a sister fucking. :rolleyes:

    Of maybe a patch of bluegrass, with a Cardinal parting the grass. MAybe you’d like to work the state motto into there, “Deo gratiam habeamus” (“Let us be grateful to God”).

    Love. Peace. Metallica.
