A Simpsons super-fan in the U.K. who says he grew up feeling like Homer Simpson was his dad inked up his entire right arm with 52 tattoos of the cartoon character.
32-year-old Ricky Viner says, "I instantly fell in love with the program when I saw it aged eight. I was adopted when I was a kid and never really had a father, so, in a funny way, Homer became the father figure I always wanted."
Viner's Homer tattoos extend from his wrist to his shoulder. It took the tattoo artist 14 hours to complete all of them. Viner says he was inspired by hearing about a man with 203 different Simpsons tats on his back. Viner thinks he may have a shot at a record for the most tattoos of a single cartoon character.
As of now, the tattoos are all just outlines, but Viner says he plans to get them all colored in. (The Mirror)
