Q about japanese tattoo

[ryuurui]

well it happens, but the "roof" radical can be added. It may throw the whole balance out of wack, but that tatoo here is a 活字 so its a 書道　blasphemy anyway.

Many people do not realize that ton of characters are being written differently by hand than their printed version appearance. I won't even mention artistic values.

Indeed...

運

and

連

are very different...but at least it is kind of fixable.

in case anyone else, god forbid, is thinking of drilling 活字 in their skin, i am pasting below my calligraphy in 楷書 znaku 運.
