Maile sent in this shot of her late grandpa and his zipper tattoo, done by Rio at Hot Ink Tattoo in Vallejo. She explains, “he had a double bypass and wanted the zipper tattooed with a lock so they couldn’t open him up again.”

I just liked these portraits (two more are after the break) of Tasha taken while she was on vacation in the Dominican Republic… It made me miss the Caribbean… I just got an email about an earthship building seminar in the Netherlands Antilles this summer, and as much as I imagine that spending a week sledgehammering in the sun is kind of miserable, I’d love to go.
Anyway, an update is building right now that has some changes that I think will make the members galleries load a hair faster for viewers (and I’m glad people seem to be enjoying the ability to contact each other via their photos), although it now takes longer to build them here! I’ll upload it as soon as I can.
Nice work by Jason Weipert at Mystic Tattoo in Hazel Green, Wisconsin…

Yowch, snug piercings — the only piercing named after a clothing line — hurt badly enough without any extra tricks… but I quite like this snug orbital placement that Jennn had done by JD at Evolution Tattoo in Santa Rosa.
So I was telling Nick (the most visibly tattooed cop in NYC I suspect) that his facial tattoos are looking especially nice now that hair is growing over them and they’re looking like they’ve been there for a while, and he mentioned that TattooJoe (who has great facial tattoos himself) who did them posted a video on his YouTube page; click through to check it out if you’d like.
I’ve featured Ferdudurke here before, but I don’t think people would know because the previous photo, taken in Kiev, is quite different. This one was taken in the Moscow Metro.
SeaHorse recently had Efix (D-Markation) in Quebec City do this absolutely beautiful cutting on her thigh over a period of about three and a half hours.
You know, I think I actually have an entire gallery dedicated to “camel toe” tattoos (seriously), but this is the first “moose knuckle” tattoo I’ve seen (don’t know what that is?). This was done by Johannes at Chronic Tattoo in San Diego, California…
The BME update should be posted in a couple hours (it’s nearly uploaded, much to the chagrin of Rogers Cable who’s warned me that I’m nearly through my monthly bandwidth quota of a measly 95 gig), but until then, who doesn’t love dirty German Brazilian girls?
