Happy Star Wars day everyone! If you aren’t watching the movies today, you better have a damn good excuse.
Here’s a few of my favourite Star Wars tattoos to help get you in the mood.
Tattoo by Adam Hays from Red Rocket Tattoo in New York.

While everyone and their Mum seems to be getting Star Wars tattoos these days (don’t even get me started), Adam Hays‘ work always stands out among the crowds. Always flawless and always fun, there’s a reason he has become the modern nerdy gentleman’s tattooer of choice.
Mr Hays owns Red Rocket Tattoo in New York, but travels a lot so you can get work from him at conventions/guest spots (I know I plan to). Check out his Facebook here.
Earthworm Jim was my favourite video game growing up (and one of my favourite cartoons), and to this day is one of my all time favourite games.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a EJ tattoo executed quite like this, that Dmitriy Samohin fella has got some skills.

I’m pretty sure that the 60′s Batman series was the first comic book show I ever saw as a kid, and it’s probably the reason I became interested in comics.
Adam West will always be one of my personal heroes, in my mind he is the ultimate Batman! Whether or not you agree with me on that, I’m sure you will agree that this tattoo of him by the talented Alex Rattray kicks some serious ass.

What mouse was once a Roman emperor?
Julius Cheeser!
I’m very, very sorry about that terrible joke. I couldn’t help myself.
Tattoo by Brian Thomas Wilson from Scapegoat Tattoo in Portland, Oregon, USA.
I’m not sure why this tattoo made me think of the cartoon “Nellie the Elephant”, but now I really want some currant buns.
We have featured quite a lot of work from Annie Frenzel in the past. I try to be as diverse as I can with what I post, but every time Annie posts another tattoo I find myself getting super excited and wanting to share it with you all. Make sure you follow her on Facebook and Instagram, or check out some of her older work on her blog.

Why waltz with a guy for 10 rounds if you can knock him out in one?
Rocky Marciano
Tattoo by Nigel Kurt from Funhouse Tattoo Studio in Barnsley.
I really, really hope they are getting a matching tattoo on the other foot.
Tattoo by Lonner from HumanFly Tattoo in Madrid, Spain.
It’s time to get excited violence fans, GSP and Diaz will finally get to trade leather at UFC 158 tomorrow night!
In the mean time, check out the Countdown show to help get you in the mood. As well as the main event, it takes a look at the Hendricks vs Condit fight, as well as Marquardt vs Ellenberger.
UFC 158 this weekend is looking like it’s going to be an absolute classic. With GSP finally going up against the dangerous and outspoken Diaz, as well as Johnny Hendricks taking on former interim champ Carlos Condit and Nate Marquardt returning to fight Jake Ellenberger, there will be plenty of guaranteed welterweight violence on offer.
We are big Diaz fans here at MVG, and would love to see him on top of the division. Just imagine all the great fights we could see with such an entertaining champ, as well as watching a super motivated GSP fighting his way back to the top! Diaz brings a unique style to the table that St Pierre has never had to deal with before, and I for one can’t wait to see how this one will pan out.
