Just a Bystander

Posted on June 10, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

We all took turns admiring this wonderful corset piece a few days ago, largely because of how well it was coordinated with the wearer’s dress. Well, here we have some more lovely pierced corsetry, albeit placed slightly differently. I have to say, though, this project is a bit more difficult to fit into a whole ensemble, especially for a wedding. Unless, you know, she’s just wearing a pair of old school Keds or something. Hmm…hey, photo shoot idea!

And of course, all the click-through and post-jump images you’ve come to know and love and expect from we here at ye olde ModBlog.

There’s No Here

Posted on June 9, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

Well kiddies, let’s knock off today with this handsome shot of Brian, hanging out in the shade, beaming out a cold, hard stare. Don’t try to look away. The stare will find you. Would the stare be any good at what it does if it couldn’t find you? No. No it would not.

Sleep on that, ModBloggers. We’ll see you tomorrow.

Welcome, all, to America’s fastest-growing carpentry sex party, Guess What?, coming to you LIVE with a special(?) Tuesday edition! You know the rules: Up there is some sort of obscene image, and you just plump the depths of your debauched and depraved mind trying to guess what it is. And, if you get it right, you win…A BRAND NEW GIRAFFE! Aren’t you tired of your old giraffe? Well…here’s your chance to get a new one. And no cheating, either. Cheating at Guess What? is an affront to God.

Let the Wheels Burn

Posted on June 9, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

I’ve said it before, folks, but if there’s one thing we’re committed to here at ModBlog, it’s ~~robots fighting alligators~~ ~~alien conspiracies~~ ~~gorillas in drag~~ bringing you, the reader, the absolute best in cephalopod-related body art. Well, today is no different, as Mandic has sent in these shots of Kujoton‘s brand new octopus cutting courtesy of none other than the Thunder From Down Under, Wayde Dunn at Infinite in scenic Philadelphia. Oh, you want more? Yeah, we’ve got more. I think you know where to look.

Deserve’s Got Nothin’ To Do With It

Posted on June 9, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

As ancient as I feel when there’s moisture in the air, I wasn’t (and I imagine many of you weren’t) around for the golden age of the TV Western. Sure, we had Walker, Texas Ranger to call our own, but The Lone Ranger? Roy Rogers? Rawhide? Forget about it. Now, some people may find it silly to be nostalgic for television (be it a program or an era), but hey, one can’t predict from where one’s inspiration will come, right? Also, this makes me feel much better about my Designing Women/Murphy Brown sleeve.

Echoes In My Heart

Posted on June 8, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

Hey, so! Kind of a bizarro day down here at the ol’ ModBlog, right? So what the hell, let’s finish up with some more glorious absurdity, this time from occasional BME videographer Chris, sporting the above lens-mug by Cory Ferguson at Good Point Tattoos. Check out the source material after the jump, but in the meantime, ModBloggers, here’s something to think on for the night: Camera-face vs. Crazy Newspaper Face—who ya got?

Until tomorrow, friends.

There Is No Crime To Dreams Like This

Posted on June 8, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

Well, this is a little easier to stomach than that last post, hmm? If my sources are trustworthy, that’d be Kallee up there, hanging out in scenic Fresno, California, wearing this beautifully executed corset project assembled by the mysterious “Dana.” Corset piercings are already, for my money, some of the most visually appealing modifications we run across with some regularity around these parts, but outfit-coordination like this? That takes finesse. Lovely work.

Strangling Kings

Posted on June 8, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

Boy howdy, time for lunch already, ModBlog? Well, I don’t know about you, but I am downright famished. Now, let’s see what’s in the ol’ lunchpail toda— oh. Oh. Well…well, that’s just not very appetizing at all, is it? And, really, it’s one thing to take a taste of your own supply, but this just does not seem like a sustainable munching endeavor. On the plus side, she, uh…she can just have some of what I’m having. Couldn’t eat another bite. Truly.

Down to the Heart

Posted on June 8, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

Good morning, folks! Let’s start off this unseasonably wet and chilly week of June with this month-old forehead cutting by Alicia in Milan, Italy. Many of the facial scarification pieces we’ve seen lately have been pretty heavy duty, so it’s nice to see something a bit more subtle as well—variety is the spice of life and all that, etc. And, hey, for the good of the land, we’ve got a dead-on shot of the above cutting after the jump.

Welcome back, ModBloggers. We gotta stay positive.

How I Learned To Dance

Posted on June 7, 2009 by Jordan Ginsberg

Good evening, ModBloggers! Hard to believe the weekend’s already over; I feel like I was just on a swing-set, enjoying the warmth, wearing my best sun dress, and tomorrow it’s back to the acid mines. Well, kick up your feet, folks—you deserve it. Whether you want to do so while on the toilet like Faith up there, well, that’s your call, I suppose.

Oh, you want to see a fuller shot of her tattoo work? Yeah, I can do that. Follow me, after the jump.

(Tattoo by Glenn Cole at Endless Boundaries in Ingersoll, Ontario. The design goes down both of her thighs and connects across her lower back; shading and color will be added shortly. These photos were taken by Chris Triance-Martin, and for more of Faith’s modeling, go here. Do it. Do it now.)
