A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    I think the m was intentional because if you look at the n it is done in the similar style.

    I hope for him, that this is a M and not a N 😉

    Cheers

    InKubus – quite possibly…. or maybe they realized the fuck up and tried to fix it.
    😉

    regardless, I still like the overall design.

    I was going to say the same as InKubus , it seems unlikely they’d make a nistake like that. (but then who knows).

    Maybe hes just a huge fan of Jameson.

    When getting my tattoo including the letter “m”, my tattoo artist kept trying to tell me it looked like this one pictured, however I asked him to add another ‘hump’ as the line should lead up to the actual letter m; so there would be 3 ridges. But to each their own, you can still tell what it’s meant to read.

    If anyone noticed, the n on the end of tradition only has one hump. so the m in family, while it does look like a cursive n, has one more hump than the n in tradition. so it works out, even if there aren’t a correct number of humps.

    It’s an “m” it looks like a script thats kind of cursive and kind of print… altho if it was mine id definately have the three humps of a traditional cursive m.

    I don’t really see a problem with the M. The bit that confuses me is that the curl of the Y goes off the scroll and on to the bottle label.

    Still like it though.
