Two groups of people are obviously passionate about what they love: Disney people and tattoo people. The Disney group includes those who like the villains. Because they matter, too! For Disney people, there is no limit to showing off that love. There’s Disney villain baby names, Disney Villain jewelry, and Disney nail wraps. On the tattoo side, there’s tons of mom-inspired ink to gain inspiration. So what happens when a Disney person is a tattoo person? To paraphrase the mouse himself: Magic. Art itself is magic but to take something so close to the heart and translate it into a tattoo is pretty cool. Disney villains can come alive through art and be part of a mom’s life forever.
Now, if this article was interesting enough to click into, it's likely because the people who find themselves here (hello!) love Disney. Or, it’s because they love villains or are just genuinely curious about what a villain tattoo would look like. Whatever the reason, we want to deliver. If people are getting villain tattoos, it’s because they feel an affinity to those characters and want to show that off. A tattoo will honor that. This is why we tried to find as many villains depicted as tattoos as possible. We also wanted to show off as many different ways they can be designed.
Below is a list of Disney villains depicted in tattoo form. Some show them as softer than they really are, while others make them appear as sinister as their acts. Whatever the design, all that matters is that it captures the love of the person rocking it. Check them out below!
Cheshire Cat From 'Alice in Wonderland'
He's sweet at first, but then really sassy. Also extremely elusive. It makes sense why folks would identify as the Cheshire Cat.
Scar From 'The Lion King'
Scar is one of the greatest Disney villains out there. Get his tattoo in honor of the big movie coming out in 2019.
Emperor Palpatine From 'Star Wars'
Sheev Palpatine is as evil as evil gets. He loves power and people will totally get that vibe from whoever has his face as a tattoo.
Female Villain Watercolors
If there is a way to make villains "soft" but still hold their powerful appeal, this is it. The watercolor effect give the tattoo a more artsy feel.
Cruella de Vil from '101 Dalmatians'
Cruella is an evil lady (because truly, who wants to skin a bunch of cute Dalmatians?) But despite her ethics, she's one of the most fashionable Disney characters out there.
Queen of Hearts From 'Alice in Wonderland'
The queen may come off as unhinged and temperamental, but she really just doesn't have time for Alice's BS. She's a true kween who knows what she wants. And has a dope rose garden, too.
Dr. Facilier From 'The Princess and the Frog'
Dr. Facilier is not the nicest person on the Disney planet, but he does voodoo and that is dang cool. Plus, he has friends "on the other side," a great nod to those believe to be one with the dead.
Jafar From 'Aladdin'
Jafar is a master manipulator. Sure, he's a predator but he also has one of the best sidekicks in Disney history and wears an amazing cape.
Hades From 'Hercules'
Hades is my personal favorite Disney villain. He oversees an entire underworld, which isn't an easy task. And does so with a sense of humor and great hair.
The 'Hocus Pocus' Witches
The Hocus Pocus witches are not good witches. But they're a part of many childhoods and deserve some recognition.
Maleficent From 'Sleeping Beauty'
Maleficent is a groundbreaking villain with depth. She's stunning, smart, and has a ton of patience, as evidenced by her elaborate hand-prick scheme against Aurora. All great qualities.
Horned King From 'The Black Cauldron'
Want to rule the world? Perhaps become a god? Then the Horned King may be the tattoo of choice for the darker Disney lovers out there.
The Evil Queen
The first Disney villain deserves credit. She is a literal icon and her smart "apple poison" trick was arguably the most humane and backstabbing way to get the job done.
Ursula From 'The Little Mermaid'
Ursula is one of those female characters who is quite envious, but also strong and independent. She needs permission from no one. In fact, she tells others what to do.
Steele From 'Balto'
Steele is often in the shadows of hero Balto, but lest we forget that the dog is the fastest of the pack. He's a bully, but his eerie black and white fur coat is iconic.
Scrooge McDuck
Gotta throw it back to a classic. Scrooge McDuck isn't a bad duck. He just doesn't care what anyone else thinks. He has his opinions and he's sticking to them.
Tick Tock Croc From 'Peter Pan'
Eating people is pretty villainous and Tick Tock has that locked and loaded. He fears no man (or woman), literally. He just eats them.
Darth Maul From 'Star Wars'
Darth Maul is on the dark side, but he's a highly skilled warrior. Want to have artwork that is intimidating? Get a tattoo of Darth Maul that looks like the one above.
Captain Hook From 'Peter Pan'
Captain Hook is the only pirate villain and that deserves to be taken into account. He is a master of the seas and will make sure nothing gets in the way of what he wants. Except maybe a clock.
Gaston From 'Beauty and The Beast'
Ah, Gaston. There's lots of opinions about Gaston, but people either love him or hate him. If love is the emotion here, he makes a great Disney villain tattoo.
A Disney Villain Collage
The best part about getting a tattoo is that is doesn't have to be just one image. Get a collage of the Disney villains that made the biggest impact.
