I am not a huge fan of heavy solid blackwork myself (particularly “piercer arm”) but I have to admit, this piece with random geometric flesh removals by Anders is prety freaking rad. The split shows the work fresh and then healed at 1.5 years.
Just like the headline states, this scar is by Anders Allinger (IAM: Alienboy). It’s been a while since Anders has sent anything in, so hopefully we’ll be seeing more from him soon.

This is primarily addressed to our Swedish readers, but if you have friends in the Stockholm area, direct them to this post.
Anders Allinger is a name any reader of ModBlog should be familiar with. His piercings and scarification pieces have been a staple on ModBlog for many years, and he’s a big BME supporter. Now you might be asking yourself what this has to do with Stockholm, as Anders is currently working at Flesh Impressions in Australia. Well, he’s actually packing up his family and moving to Sweden, and is looking for work. So if you know of any shops in the Stockholm area that are looking for an experienced body modification and scarification artist send Anders an e-mail. And be sure to check out his piercing and scarification galleries.
Now according to Google, this phrase is from a song by Oomph! entitled “Sex hat keine Macht” (Sex has no power), which I’m assuming is a German band. Putting the music reference aside, it is an interesting quote to use scarification as a medium, as anyone who has been scarred knows, bleeding is a part of the process.
As you’ve probably guessed by the watermark, this scar was done by Anders from Flesh Impressions in Broadbeach, Qld, Australia. You can see more of Anders’ work in his scarification portfolio.
Can you believe it’s Friday already? Where did the week go?
This week’s follow-up comes to us from that wacky Aussie Anders. This anchor scarification was done over 18 months ago, which means that this scar is pretty much healed, although with it being on a finger, anything can still happen.
To see how it looks today, you know what to do.
He was taken from us too soon. RIP Dimebag.
As you can see by the watermark, this scarification/tattoo combination piece was done by Anders. You can see more of his work in his BME Portfolio Gallery.
Things are back to normal this week, which means it’s time for this week’s scarification follow-up post. Before we get to it, I just want to take a minute to thank everyone who keeps sending in their healed scar photos. When I started this column last year there was no way I could predict how popular it would become, and there’s no way it could exist without the contributions of the many talented scarification artists.
That said, let’s get on to this week’s scar. Back in December of last year we saw this scarification that was done over ink. What was unique was that it wasn’t done over solid blackwork, but rather it was done over Shannan’s full color chestpiece.
It’s been almost six months now since we saw this scar by Anders, so keep on reading if you want to know how it looks today.
Oh what a tangled web we weave. Three years ago, when Anders did this heart/web combination, who could have thought it would turn out the way it did.
Three years is a pretty long time, which makes this follow-up one of the longest time differences so far. Keep on reading to see how it healed up.
Since I started this weekly column last year I’ve seen hundreds of scarification pieces, all in various stages of completion. I can honestly say that each and every scar I’ve seen is unique not only in terms of the artist behind the scar, but also in how the person heals afterwards. Which brings us to this week’s scar. Two years ago Anders cut this rose design into a client’s side.
In the two years since it was cut this scar has transformed into something incredible, which if you want to see, you’ll have to keep reading.
This week’s Follow-up is one of the most recognizable band logos in the modified world. I think I’ve seen more Misfits related tattoos than any other band. Anders did this Misfits inspired cutting about a month ago over top of some heavy blackwork.
To see how it’s coming along, keep on reading.
