This Darth Vader Hello Kitty tattoo is a brilliant real-life take on the unfortunately fake pink Hello Kitty Vader. Link

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    There is indeed a real Hello Kitty Darth Vader costume, as seen at Dragoncon 2007.

    This is a tatt rendition of an original piece of artwork from Nick Jones called “The Headmaster Ritual”.
    His flickr gallery shows this off along with a bunch of other very cool pieces. I have the Darth Kitty and the Stormtrooper Kitty hanging on my wall at home and I couldn’t be prouder!

    Nick’s great gallery is here:

    Hi kids!

    Yes, this is indeed based on my painting, which you can see here:
    The Headmaster Ritual

    Everything’s for sale, so don’t be shy!

    Thanks to Matt for the props.

    Cheers
