all 9 samples — three readings, three styles ↓
Script tattoos live or die on the lettering: one word or line, spelled exactly. These nine set a first name, a date, and a short phrase, each drawn in fine cursive, engraved serif, and gothic blackletter. Type your own text in the direction field and the sheet redraws it in the same three hands, letter for letter.
- a proof sheet to check spelling before booking
- a reference for choosing a lettering hand
- a print to compare cursive, serif and blackletter
- a starting point for a name or date piece
Frequently asked questions
- Can I put my own text in?
- Yes — that's exactly what the direction field is for. Type the exact word, name or date and it's drawn character for character in the same three hands.
- What size do these print at?
- Landscape proportions, the lettering set large on one line with a clear margin above and below.
- Are these ready to tattoo?
- They are lettering designs, not stencils — an artist redraws the letterforms at placement size before transferring them.
- How do I check the spelling is exact?
- Read the sheet letter by letter before booking — the design shows the text exactly as typed, so any error carries through.
About toile
This page is a showcase: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each one shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Toile has no generation wired to this page yet — nothing here is made to order, and there is no account, no upload, nothing to buy. What you see is what exists. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
