In addition to the already stacked line-up of scarification artists at the fast-approaching Philadelphia Tattoo Arts convention, globetrotting bon vivant John Durante will also be available for scarification appointments every day of the convention. This is an absolute murderer’s row, folks. Get thee to Philly.
Name? Mathias Nilsson. Location? Stockholm, Sweden. Lowbrets? Self-done, three days old. Eyes? Could have only been born of the ocean.

Some of you were left with questions after the last post to feature Michael‘s incredible 30 mm. tongue piercing. Well, here are some alternate angles! This is just massive, to say nothing of the 11.5 mm. philtrum and 22 mm. oval labret.

Happy Valentine’s Day, ModBlog! Here is Beorn and his amazing multicolored technicolor wang, with piercings by Burgh (he of the Smurficidal offspring). Click through for the whole megillah.

Hey, holiday symbolism! And before anyone jumps in to criticize, those hand-web piercings are one day old. If they look fresh or irritated … that’s why.
And just like that, friends, another week is behind us. What kinds of hilarious hi-jinx did we get up to this time?
– A brand new interview with The Lizardman! Always nice to hear from our fine, scaly friend.
– VOMIT didn’t drink boners, but she did show us a fancy balloon trick.
– A fine display of piercing-reversal with this stitched-up stretched labret by xPUREx.
– Samurai + serpent + swastikas = one hell of a back-piece.
– Ryan Ouellette and xPUREx would both like to cut you at the Philadelphia Tattoo Arts convention.
– No, really, we had a lot of really tremendous scars this week.
And there you have it. We’ll check back in over the weekend here and there, and then rise from the ashes on Monday morning, good as new. We’ve got some great interviews to look forward to soon, and, what, a complete redesign of BME rolling out any day now? Hell yeah. Be good to each other on this fabricated excuse to sell chocolate, ModBlog, stay safe, and, as always, thank you for your continued support of BME.
I really like Cliff’s variation on the hoary old wing tattoo — to be honest, I’m surprised we don’t see this placement more often. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that Vincent Hocquet’s stippling technique is so impressive, either. A couple of close-ups, after the jump.

I swear, the scarification submissions lately have just been an absolute embarrassment of riches, and this shot of Sophie by Collin J. Rae, featuring a scar by the third-most-famous Australian ever, Wayde Dunn, is certainly no exception. Also, it’s a heart! Like for Valentine’s Day! See? Timely.

And here we have blade-bearing Sete374, nicely captured by Nuno Horta, with tattoo work by Cesar at Para Sempre Tattoos in Porto, Portugal, and a score to settle, ostensibly, with Josh.

The rubber king of Williamsburgh, xPUREx, sends in this recent cutting out of his very own Pure Body Arts studio in Brooklyn, New York. And, much like Ryan Ouellette yesterday, he will also be at the Philadelphia Tattoo Arts convention from February 27 to March 1, and wouldn’t you know it? He just had a cancellation, and is available all day on the Friday. Visit him on IAM or at PureBodyArts.com to set up an appointment.

This handsome (and vaguely cyberpunky?) shot comes from Gibi Body Art in Brasilia, Brazil. I think they got his good side.
