Scar Brace Piercing

The wearer of these piercings would like me to point out that the scars are not cutting or self harm, but are in fact zombie bite marks, and this is his attempt to turn it into something more decorative.

Enjoy the thirteen posts for the day. I think I’m going to take the weekend off now. You may however see a little guest blogging from Ryan at BMEshop (and I’m consdering adding other guest bloggers — if you think you have what it takes and have an existing body modification themed blog that you’d like to mate with ModBlog, drop me a line).

The Curse of the Name Tattoo

Tattoo legend has it that if you get a tattoo of a romantic partner’s name, or get a matching tattoo with them, that the relationship is doomed. This further before and after anecdotal evidence is by Curtis Richter at The Quillian in Allentown, PA.

I have three matching tattoos with ex-partners. Two dumped me, I dumped the other. I can’t say I won’t do it again, because I record my life with my body, and I don’t regret any of the tattoos in the least… But from everything I’ve seen, I’d suggest this curse applies in at least 80% of cases.

Two Sleeves; One additive, one subtractive

The Escher lizards on the left (their first tattoo by the way) are by Jim Judeikis at Saints and Sinners in Baltimore, MD. Thanks also to The Fog (also in a small group of artist that I’d consider the defining minds in the genre of skin removal) for the fresh floral piece on the right (see more in the Ryan Ouellette Scarification Portfolio).

Camel Toe Tattoos!

Admit it, you love camel toe.

See, I got all excited because Lexci Million, one of Canada’s most attractive piercers I’d argue (taken by the other camel toe in this photo, the always hilarious SuperDirk) has been talking in my Whatever forum (on IAM) about how if she legally could she’d go topless everywhere… So when this photo set comes in labelled “Camel Toe” from her, I probably wasn’t as amused at its punny nature as I otherwise would have been. But three seconds later that wore off!

Both of the tattoos are by Mike Gibson at Dragon fx Kingsway in Edmonton, AB. Now can you guess which toe is belongs to who?
