Inked Wednesday #11 – Legend of Zelda, Star Wars, TMNT & More

Are you inked? When I go through the submissions for Inked Wednesday each week, I always wonder why the person chose not only to get permanent art added to his or her body but also about the specific tattoo art. I don’t question it in a judgmental way (though if you have a tattoo you have probably heard the condescending “why did you do that?” questions), I’m just curious. Every tattoo has a story. There’s a reason a certain franchise was chosen, and a reason a certain quote or character is featured in the art. If you have any friends with ink, go ahead and ask them about their tattoo stories.

And in the meantime, check out this week’s Inked Wednesday gallery. We’ve got tattoos from Once Upon a Time, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and more:

    The tmnt tattoo is Leonardo. In the original tmnt, all the brothers had the same color bandana, which was red. Weapons was the only way to tell them apart. The blue, orange, and purple were added for the cartoon in 1987.
