Inked Wednesday #85 – Six Fandoms in One Tattoo

When you feel deep and abiding love for multiple fandoms, sometimes you find yourself competing to express that affection equally. It takes energy and time to foster your fandoms and keep them healthy, and if you’re into getting tattoos, it requires a sizable chunk of skin real estate. There are ways to combine elements from various stories though, and I want to highlight a stellar example in this week’s Inked Wednesday. This wonderfully designed tattoo belonging to Amy includes nods to six different fandoms. Six! Can you name them all?

Jaesuntattoos came up with this piece that combines Star Wars, Doctor Who, The Chronicles of Narnia, The X-Files, Lord of the Rings, and Harry Potter. The Harry Potter part is the most subtle–the various pieces form the Deathly Hallows symbol. It’s so well done and all works together.

Amy’s tattoo is impressive, but you’ll find more awesome ink in the gallery below. There’s a flux capacitor from Back to the Future, a cutie mark from My Little Pony, a watercolor-style Stitch, and more.

Do you have nerdy tattoos? Share them with me because I’ll save them to include in a future edition of Inked Wednesday. You can get pictures to me by leaving links in the comments, by tagging or mentioning me on Instagram, or by sending me photos on Twitter–all the ways, basically. Please be sure to let me know the name of your tattoo artist so I can share credit. And hey, if you happen to be a tattoo artist that’s done pop culture-inspired ink, get me a link to your portfolio.
