Sigh. If anyone needs me, I’ll be doing three- or nine-thousand sit-ups and eating raw eggs by the handful, shell included. Have a good night, ModBlog, and we’ll see you in the morning.

I’m really liking Trystan’s new blackwork neck tattoo with gray flowers, done pretty quickly over about two and a half hours by Paul Wren at Th-inker Tattoo in Melbourne, Florida.

Niknak recently had her already extensive work by Dan DiMattia of Calypso Tattoo in Liege, Belgium. This latest session is about ten hours of work, and you can see lots more pictures on her IAM page.

I’ve posted another interview with another Belgium neo-tribal/geometric artist (a la Dan), this time Vincent Hoquet of Beautiful Freak Tattoo (check out his BME gallery at that link) who’s been featured here a few times. Click through for the interview, and come back to comment.

In order to get you nice and relaxed for the extremely depraved tattoo I am about to post, a nice photo of some tribal blackwork done at 21st Century Body Art in York, UK.

Dustin says, “Circle-slash tribal club… I wear this badge proudly.”  Tattoo by Alie at The Shaman’s Den in Binghamton, NY, who I suspect has done an awful lot more of these tattoos, but without the circle-slash.

Continuing my interview series with tattoo artists, I’m very happy to post a chat with Daniel DiMattia of Calypso Tattoo today. Click through to read it now, and come on back to comment if you’d like.
