I want to make a custom figure of Fat Cobra from the Iron Fist books, and I'm trying to figure out a way to get his chest tattoos into an editable text format.

Was it Antonio who lived over there? I don't remember seeing him much since the site upgrade. I think Dare either said he knew it or was learning it once.

This is the best one I've been able to find with a clear view of the characters.
Thanks, Dare!
A little secret: the artists that drew him don't know chinese either.
That is why his tattoos will change from artist to artist.
In the pic you posted, everything is scribed to look like chinese characters.
The only recognizable characters are 眼镜蛇 which mean "cobra". The problem is the chinese character body tattoos should go from top to bottom not left to right. At this point, you can just make up stuff on your own.
Not sure what you mean by editable text format. Use google translate.

Copy and paste results on to a word processor like MS Word.
Huh, interesting. So the rest is just chinese-looking chicken scratch or arbitrary characters?
In the pic you posted, yes, those are mostly chinese-looking chicken scratch.

Some of em are close to real words, but yeah it's just a mishmash of random chinese (and japanese, too) words the artist lifted from somewhere. They don't mean anything.
