Beautiful blackwork tattooing on Namesofthedead (top) and Lefrog (bottom) by Xed Le Head at London UK’s Into You. Really great photo as well!

Alright, this is why I shouldn’t doodle away at ModBlog images (like this Italian beach photo) while I’m not really paying attention because I’m watching TV or something and get all carried away… You can click through if you want to see the original on BME. My apologies to everyone involved.

Finally some snow!

It’s like I can’t resist or something

Posted on February 9, 2007 by Shannon Larratt

I swear that when I’m processing the picture (and I’m a total sucker for resurrection suspension in general), in the case of many of the people who tend to repeat here, if their face or a tattoo I remember isn’t in the photo, I am unaware who it is until I get to writing the entry (at which point I look at the email itself)… Namesofthedead, photo by Magician, facilitated by Constant Elevation at House of Wah in London, UK.

Crushed

Posted on February 9, 2007 by Shannon Larratt

Dopesickgirl at home in St. John’s, NL (making her one of the more remote BME members, and certainly one of a small number that can say they live farther east than any other North Americans)… Tattoo by Mike at Trouble Bound in St. John’s, NL.

It’s torture I tell you.

Posted on February 9, 2007 by Shannon Larratt

Seriously. It’s a nice kind of torture and all, and I’m definitely not complaining, but on one very small level, getting regular photos of gorgeous modified girls like Copper_Wire (nipple piercings by Adam Aries at Darkwave in Boston, MA) is torment to a single guy like me. That said, luckily I appreciate and even seek out torment I think.
