Albertan or Russian?
With all due apologies, any time I see a fit blond tattooed guy, all I can think of is the freaky Russian body builder! Lexci snapped this shot (one of a large number posted by various people to the galleries) at this year’s APP convention. By the way, that’s Eric who was featured when the cuttings were fresh.

Diddy Interview Posted
Sorry I’ve been slacking on getting interviews posted — I’ve actually got probably a dozen that are 92% ready, so Roo‘s going to be helping me get them polished off and posted, starting with fellow Brit Diddy, a piercer and body modification artist from Bournemouth. As always, click through for the interview, come back to comment!
Geeks in love, and geeks not…
These two very much in love Star Trek fans got matching TNG badges to celebrate their two year anniversary (see also: happy Trek fan tattoo, and Data’s signature tattoo) by Randy at The Body Shop in Slidell, LA.
Brad on the other hand has been dealt a far harsher hand by Cupid, with his “Fuck Love” tattoo by Miguel at Body and Soul in Jersey City, NJ.
Edit/update: I noticed this in my queue, so I figured I might as well add it to this entry since it matches the theme. “FOREVER” and “&EVER” inner lip tattoos, as done by Jay at Bulldog in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
Mamma Bear must be so proud…
Zachariah says that he has an ass so sweet that he had to get a cupcake on it (done by Adrian at Seventh Street Tattoo in Little Rock, AR).
Eye Tattoo Update — Josh
Following up on the last eyeball tattoo photos, which I have to admit looked a little photoshopped and I had my suspicions that they looked “too good to be true”, Shawn Porter snapped this photo of Josh‘s incredible now all-blue eye tattoo. It is too good AND true! There are now around a dozen people in this community who’ve tattooed their eyes to one extent or another (I’m dying to see Cutthroat’s all-black eye) — will this snowball like tongue splitting, although thought to be a potentially terrible idea, did in 1998?
This tattoo was done by Howie (LunaCobra) of course, using eight to ten injections using two colors of blue ink to get the effect… He tells me tomorrow he’s doing an eye using a mix of red and black ink to do a “demon eye”… Damn!
Nick’s Facial Work Continues
Updating you on NYC’s most tattooed architect’s facial tattoo work, here’s the latest photo of Nick‘s striking facial work by Tattoo Joe at Physical Grafitti in Bridgeport, CT. I love where this project is going, and it’s a real gift to be able to watch people undergoing this sort of transition.
Edit/update: Read comment #22 for some background on Nick.
X-Rays and CT scans of piercings
Following up on the recently posted xray entry on surface bars, Excess sent in these shots of his pubic and clavicle surface bars piercings done for him by Julia Fyre and Brian Decker of PURE in NYC. Three more shots continue after the break — the torso shots are xrays and the head shots are CT scans.
I like his hair…
