And here we have the lovely Hydra! Unfortunately, she’s only showing off a single head, but, hey, it’s a good one, right? Credit the piercings and the tattoo (which, naturally, features a hydra’s head popping off) to the good folks at Freedom Body Piercing and Tattooing in Vernon, British Columbia, and the tattoo in particular to Troy Semkiw. More after the jump? More after the jump.

Whoa hey, it’s Countess Grotesque, checking in with one hell of a hearty mohawk, among other lovely adornments! Those adornments being, of course, the various symbols and insignia tattooed on her head and neck, not to mention a (to my eyes) damn-near flawless make-up-and-jewel job. Also? Bright green fishnets. What’s that song again? “My Stockings Are So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades”? Something like that.
Oh, you’d like another picture? We’ve got you covered. Guess where to find it.

Oh, hello, ModBloggers! Hope the weekend treated you well while Toronto started to eat itself. Anyway, let’s kick things off this week with this rather striking and environmentally conscious suspension (because it’s green, right? Eh? Maybe the worst joke ever written here, not gonna lie) featuring Nick, who was helped along by his compatriots—the good folks at CoRE. And hey, what’s that hanging off him, hmm? A suckling pig, perhaps? Yes, let’s just agree that it’s a suckling pig and move on with our day.

Here’s some faux-vintage footage of my old friend Doctor Suicide (more) skewering her cheeks..

We’ve previously praised this young lady’s asymmetrical decisions, and even though she’s removed some jewelry, she’s just lovely, isn’t she? And would you believe our luck? She’s included a whole set of photos for us to peruse! We don’t know much of anything about this mystery woman, but hey, we’d rather have images with mystique than nothing at all, right? Right.

Hey now, it’s been a while since we’ve checked in with La Negra and her pals, eh? Time to correct that! Here we have some shots of Towa‘s first suspension, facilitated by the aforementioned La Negra, as well as Valnei and photographed by Martinetik. First suspension ever, surrounded by a crew like that and wearing a jaunty ascot to boot? That’s a recipe for a good time, folks. A shot of the refractory period, including a nice view of Towa’s shoulder scarification, after the jump.

Ha, what a lovely coincidence—for the second week in a row, we kick off our Friday with a nice young lady with an upper-body bird tattoo! This time around, it’s the peacock-feathered rarr.ae generously housing a small hummingbird on her right rib (among other piece not quite visible in this photo). Cute! And hey, after the jump, FULL FRONTAL…ish.
It’s Friday, ModBloggers—remember to remember me.

And finally, folks, as you prepare for bed or whatever it is you do once the sun goes down (rob blood banks?), here is your newest nightmare monster, some terrible devil-skull with human hands and the keys to, let’s see, Hades? Does Hades have keys? It does now, we guess, and that’s where this creature is taking you. Just follow the diamond. We’ll see you on the morrow.

Hey, look at that punim! Apparently, the always-lovely babylovedoll has traded in her red/orange/raspberry swirl/etc. locks for a bright, summery blue, and we can’t help but approve. There aren’t many sure things in life, but death, taxes, the coming space monster war and adorable pictures from our model up there seem to be reliably constant. We’ll take it.

Hot on the heels of our esteemed religious coverage from earlier this week, Andrea at White Light Tätowierungen in Berlin, Germany, sends in this photo of a cutting she did months ago, well along into the healing process and looking pretty fantastic, yes? Yes. Sure, the Owl God is nowhere to be found, but He’s always there in spirit, hootin’ the night away, swooping down to swipe rats and beetles out of the soil for all of eternity, amen.
