So I’ve been contemplating my next tattoos. I was gonna mix up symbols from my favorite video games (Freespace 2, Tie Fighter and Starflight) into one tattoo, but then I was reminded that your character in Tie Fighter actually DOES get a tattoo (I was originally gonna just use the generic Empire symbol), as you can see here:
I’ve decided therefore that I’m gonna get separate tattoos for the three games, the one above for Tie Fighter on my left inner forearm, the funky S-type symbol from Freespace 2 on my right:
And the I-type symbol from Interstel in Starflight (like at the top of the code wheel below) likely on my left as well:
I’m quite excited about the prospect, and have already begun saving for 'em. :)
That being said, now that I’m done gushing with excitement over my next tats, do any of y’all here have any video game or other nerdy tattoos? I already have one from the TV show Supernatural, but I’d love to see what any of y’all have. :)
I have an Alien/Terminator-style biotech arm tattooed from my left collarbone down to my bicep. I guess that kinda counts as nerdy. Sweet, the pic I posted here a long time ago is still up:
Doesn’t show the whole thing but you get the basic idea. It’s also been retouched and had a bit more added to it, such as a glowing power source (the only colored part) and some wires.
I have more ideas for geeky tattoos than I have either space on my body or a willingness to abandon whatever societal acceptance I currently hold. Can’t say any of those ideas will ever come to fruition, for better or worse.
