How to write Always, especially "ay"

Have I understood how ay in Always should be represented?

I am designing a memorial tattoo for my late dog. I have tried my best to understand how it should be represented, but I am unsure when it comes to ay.

I have laid out my thinking a little step by step in the attached image.

And a big thanks to anyone who takes the time to check my interpretation.

Idiot söker sitt laddfodral... Boländera - Stadsskogen

Klant som jag är, missade jag att stänga dragkedjan på min väska när jag skulle ta mig till Stadsskogen för en joggingsrunda efter jobbet.

Så lite i desperation hoppas jag att någon kanske har hittat fodralet? Cyklade fram och tillbaka samma väg några gånger, men såg inte fodralet. Lite surt då hörlurarna köptes för någon månad sedan och är rätt värdelösa utan att kunna ladda dem.

Fodralet ser ut som på bilden och märket är Soundcore Sport X20.

Capitalizaion Tengwar/Quenya for stylistic porpuese.

The text I want to have in Tenwgae is "Namárië Wolfie" both written with Quenya format.

And I would love it if someone with more knowledge than me can see if I had made some big mistakes.

So the crude drawing I made showing the cacitalizaiton is correct?

Thank for any one that can help me a little with this. :)

Recommendations on a good program for "artistic" 3d representations of molecules.

I hope someone can give me some solid tips on programs for good looking 3d representtions of molecules. An extra plus if the program can display molecules in an "artistic" way.

It had been a long time since I studied, and in my day-to-day work, I never needed to make 3d models of molecules, and when I searched for it, I got a little overwhelmed with all the options available today. Tried a few programs, both web versions and downloads, but couldn't really get the type of image I am after.

The reason for this, I am thinking about some tattoo designs. My legs (my shins to be more precise) are covered with superficial scars from 1.25 M NaOH, thinking about covering them with some tattoos. Did not get them at work, just from being an idiot cleaning my dad's wood deck.

One idea I have is to tattoo one or two molecules if I can get them in a way that they will cover up my scars. Something like a ball-and-stick model with an electrostatic mesh, like in the picture in this post, is what I have in mind.

The closest I have come is PyMOL, but I can't get it to show ball-and-stick (just stick), and the mesh I get is kind of clunky. But I might just need to go a little deeper and learn to use PyMOL better?

So, what are people's favorite programs for 3d models of molecules?
