Fan For Life 2.0: Tattoo Archive is live!
Do you have Metroid ink? Would you like to show it off? Now’s your chance! Our Fan For Life feature is our way of immortalizing those Metroid fans that have gone to the extreme to show their love for the series, ultimately dedicating a piece of their skin as a shrine to The Hunter herself and becoming just that- a fan for life. This feature page goes hand-in-hand with our Tattoo Tuesday series that runs on our Instagram and Facebook, and is periodically updated as new posts are added to those social media hubs. If you’d like to be a part of this collection, feel free to either DM us on either Instagram or Facebook, or email me directly at [email protected]! Happy hunting, I look forward to seeing everyone’s tattoos! ^_^
(My very first tat, circa 2013. Spent 2.5 hours in the chair.)
