What is this font? I need this for a tattoo!
I'm starting to work on ideas for a new tattoo and I want to incorporate the type of font in this design. Can anyone help? it doesn't need to be this font, but something very similar... sort of that old old old science figure look.

That's what I figured, but I also figured a font exists like this somewhere...

Haha, Amanda nailed it - that's just my attempt at crazy old illustration type. As Danielle mentioned, you can find lots of handwriting fonts online, but I actually have a little time today, and if you want that exact type treatment, I might be able to help you out.

Thanks Ian, I think I'm going to poke around through these fonts and see what I can come up with. I'm not sure what I want exactly other than a "scientific figure" looking thing, but I know I want to involve this style of font.

BTW your shirt is one of my favorite shirts I have.
