    Has anyone come across good variations on Ogham script? I'd be grateful if you could post images.

    I am into very simple modern styling & have always wanted an Ogham script, but I have to find the balance between simple and underdeveloped...

    My only current tattoo is a circle on my ankle done with bamboo, it is 1mm thick x 15mm diameter - the measurements are quite significant to me, as is the simplicity of the tattoo.

    Here's the initial version of the script:

    I unfortunately can't post any pics in work, but as ogham was originally carved into stone, I would personally go for a carved stone type of look myself.

    Try google search, there are loads of examples. (Not trying to be a smartarse ;))

    Done by Stefan in Wildcat Ink Jervis street. Not sure if he's still there though.

    Thanks for the feedback, I'm looking to take this in a new direction. Still the ogham script, but with some added elements. I'll post pics if I can make it work...
