We kicked off the week with these UV ink tattoos by Stephanie Campbell at Dragon FX Kingsway in Edmonton, Alberta, but the question remained among many: What do these suckers look like when not under the glow of one of your fancy ’70s blacklights? Well, Stephanie checked back in with these shots to illustrate the difference. Check out the difference after the jump.
Good day, ModBloggers! Hope you’re all refreshed and bright-eyed and sobered up or whatever from the weekend. Let’s kick things off this week with these UV tattoos by Stephanie Campbell at Dragon FX Kingsway in Edmonton, Alberta. We know the jury is still out on UV tattoos to an extent, what with the potential unpredictability of the ink used, but we’ll save the moralizing for now (for once?) and just enjoy some fun, well-executed work. More after the jump.

It started out with a client saying, “You should give me a black light tattoo,” and I said, “It has to be a dick.” He says, “OK, on the bottom of my foot would work, or maybe my leg. Actually, it would be cool on my ass.”
You know, back in my day, when someone passed out drunk, you would just draw on their face or, worst case, administer a minor teabagging. This? This just seeems excessive. Oh, the youth of today.

Well, it’s been a fun week. If you’ll recall:
And something else happened, I just can’t remember … OH right, BME shop reopened! The annual holiday gift-giving season is around the corner, folks — just the way Jesus intended. You know what to do.
