“Closer to God” skin removal

I’ve posted a few fresh script skin removals in the past, but I had to share this beautifully healed on by Andre Fernandes at Tattoo You in Sao Paulo, Brasil. Oh, and for anyone reading this from the area, be sure to check out Con.Scar 2006, the first scarificatin convention to be hosted in South America (inspired by Shawn Porter‘s ScarWars, now planning its third year). Andre will be working at that event along with other artists.

Flock of birds cutting

I don’t think I’ve seen a single scarification piece by Wayde Dunn at Puncture Body Piercing in Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia that I didn’t think was just stunning. These birds are just the first to be cut — more are planned.

More work by Wayde: Skull and Crossbones, Cherry Blossom Chest Cutting, Giant Bird Scar, Aztec Cutting, and of course the Wayde Dunn mini-portfolio on BME.
