Here we offer 8 different hand-brushed Japanese Fireman tattoo designs by Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase. For these Fireman tattoo designs the fonts are different, but the characters and the meaning are the same. So order the style you like - the meaning is the same for each design.

Fireman in Japanese is 消防士 which is read shouboushi. The Japanese word shouboushi meaning "Fireman" is composed of the word 消防 shoubou meaning "fire fighting; fire department" and 士 (read shi) meaning "person". shouboushi like most Japanese words is gender neutral.

With your order, you will receive everything you need for the perfect Fireman in Japanese Tattoo. Your design comes as an Adobe PDF file which means it will print exactly as Master Takase brushed the design and, of course, it includes the line art (also called a stencil) which your tattoo artist must have to properly ink the design.

As soon as your order is placed, you can download your Japanese tattoo design. We also send you an email with instructions should you want to download the design in the future. The Adobe PDF file completely documents the design and contains everything your tattoo artist needs to properly ink the design. Your tattoo artist does not need to know Japanese.
