There aren’t enough adjectives in the world or the galaxy far, far away to describe Leia Organa. She stands for what’s right and has put duty over her personal needs again and again. And this Star Wars tattoo captures a tiny bit of how she’s bravely stood against the evil–first the Empire and now the First Order.

And for something completely different in the realm of geeky tattoos, take a bite out of this Thwomp. I can’t get over the colors in this Super Mario ink. It looks way more fierce in this tattoo than in the game.

Keep on scrolling to see additional tattoos in the gallery below. You’ll find Dungeons and Dragons-inspired ink, Ashbringer from World of Warcraft, a stunning Tokyo Ghoul design, and more in the gallery below.
If you have nerdy ink on your skin or you’re a tattoo artist that applies pop culture, STEM, music, or other nerd-inspired ink (tl;dr: I want to see all of the tattoos) on a regular basis, then please hit me up because I’d like to highlight you in a future Inked Wednesday gallery. I’m especially interested if you have a sleeve or other large tattoo. You can get in touch with me via email at [email protected]. Send me photos of the tattoos you’d like me to feature (the higher resolution, the better) and don’t forget to let me know the name of your tattoo artist if you have it, as well the name of the shop he or she works out of. If you are the tattoo artist, give me links to your portfolios and/or Instagram accounts so I can share them with our readers.
