Remember the party time that was Chris? Well he's got a brother who is also cute and tatted. The brothers, who are also Harry Potter fans, got matching Dark Mark tattoos.
The brothers grew up with stoner parents who were really into The Lord of The Rings and see Harry Potter as the LOTR for this generation.
The first tat he got was at 21 and was a Japanese symbol for "spirit". The next one he got on a drunken trip to Kentucky with some buddies which means "13" "...or 'golden showers'" he says. (For a great site that shows a bunch of misinterpreted/mis-tatted Asian symbols, hit up Hanzi Smatter, which is "dedicated to the misuse of Chinese characters in Western culture").
Like his brother, he gets a lot of his stuff done by Tiny at Metamorph but he really goes all over. He's a kick-ass artist (and actually drew up the design on Chris's chest) so he makes sure to look at what else the artists have done. If he can draw better than they can - he'll go elsewhere.
Check out some more Harry Potter tats after the jump.
