Tattoo lettering reference sheet: the words "Los Angeles" in authentic Chicano script, set on a flat, smooth, pale warm-neutral skin-tone ground with soft even light and no props. The lettering follows one wide, shallow upward-curving arc, like a smile turned upside down, spanning about 88% of the canvas width and centred, with generous empty margin around it. It is a thick, forward-leaning calligraphic script with swelling thick downstrokes joined by fine hairline connectors. The capital L of "Los" and the capital A of "Angeles" are large and ornate, with sharp spur serifs and pointed blackletter-style terminals. Long, controlled swashes whip off the entry stroke of the first L and sweep from the final s, extending the arc outward at both ends. A single elegant underline swash curves beneath the word pair, echoing the arc. Strokes are bold, with clear open gaps between letters and open counters so every letter reads cleanly when stencilled and will not blur together on skin. Rendering: glossy jet-black ink with deep solid blacks, crisp sharp edges and a subtle wet sheen, plus a faint soft grey drop-shadow beneath the letters and a few light grey shading hints inside the thickest strokes. Black and grey only, no colour fills, no extra symbols, no dots, no numbers, no other text. Warm low raking light gives a gentle highlight on the ink.
