Chip Weatherbee isn’t new to Inked Wednesday. One of his tattoos was featured in a past gallery, but it turns out that Doctor Who ink was far from his only piece of permanent fandom. He has eight total pieces showing off his passion for his most beloved nerd topics. They were all applied by tattooists in the Seattle area. We’ll kick things off with this Star Wars art featuring the Millennium Falcon with an actual falcon. Yep.

And how about this TARDIS?

You can see more of Chip’s fandom tributes in the gallery below. There’s another Star Wars tattoo, some Lord of the Rings-inspired beauties, Serenity from Firefly, and more. Check out the captions for tattoo artist details.
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 on a regular basis, then please hit me up because I’d like to highlight you in a future Inked Wednesday gallery. You can get in touch with me via email at alratcliffe@yahoo.com. Send me photos of the tattoos you’d like me to feature (the more hi-res, 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.
