Black and Grey Eyes

Posted on November 27, 2009 by Rachel

It looks like Leo Rojas Valenzuela has a fan, they sent in some photos

“these tattoos were done by a really outstanding, low profile artist in chile. i’m uploading them to bme coz i think his work must be recognized world-wide, and what better place to do so than this web. hope you enjoy looking at the detailed ink as much as we do; we’re not used to such a great pieces here in chile, peace out!”

I have to agree. I’d like to see more examples of his work as well as artists that are hidden gems from countries all around the world. If your artist doesn’t have a portfolio, tell them to send us 10 photos with their contact information and that they’ll get a free membership as well. Or you can get their permission to submit it on their behalf.

Mustache me not!

I checked his page to figure out what the meaning behind the tattoo was but he hasn’t posted in a while so hopefully he’ll give us some insight into what his tattoo means or stands for. I’d also like to know if the tattoo is healed or not. It’s incredibly vibrant like it’s new without any apparent redness or swelling.

Clicky clicky!

I wonder if he’s participating in Movember or whatever the mustache growing month is called.

Hot Topic enough for you?

Posted on November 27, 2009 by Rachel

I couldn’t sleep so I figured I’d get a jump on the day and wake Modblog up bright and early.

Dark Freak from Luck All did the implants on this lovely lady. He didn’t include her name but I’m sure someone can suss that out for me. I can’t wait until I can make it down to South America again so I can see some of these Brazilian beauties first hand.

Happy Thankgiving!

Hey Modblog, you’ve got the day off! I’m thought I’d be able to post from the in-laws house but they’re still living in the land of dial up and I don’t have a modem so I can’t post today so I’m leaving you until Friday with briannamci and her friend. You can play “find the tattoo” while you wait for me to get my turkey on (or whatever it is a bunch of vegetarians and kosher keepin’ Jews eat on Thanksgiving!). Phil and I scoured looking for some turkeylicious tattoos but sadly we fell short. We’ll try for something festive for the next set of holidays!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Splash of Color

Nishimura is another darling beauty that I’m lucky enough to post here on Modblog. She’s from Vancover, BC and thinks she’ll have to get her fingers touched up for the third time. As someone who has finger tattoos, I know that’s a big ouch!

BMEtv – Mike Rubendall

Posted on November 25, 2009 by Rachel

Mike Rubendall is based out of Massapequa, New York but you’ll often find him anywhere around the world at various tattoo conventions with Henning Jorgenson (BMEtv Episode 3!). If you walk into a shop around the world, you’ll no doubt see flash on the walls drawn by Mike. Norm and I even saw tons of his flash in the walls of a shop we stopped in at on Maui, Hawai’i. Check out the video to learn a little bit more about Mike.

An American Boy from Russia

Posted on November 25, 2009 by Rachel

He didn’t leave an IAM name but he did say he’s from St. Petersburg. Russia. He was out with a friend who wanted to take photos of him. His implants are by Arseniy Andersson from Saint-Scalpelburg in St. Petersburg. If you look closely, I think his arm is greylined and he’s begun work on sleeves. It’s pretty amazing to see such a blank canvas with implants. At first I was about to reject this submission as not having mod content because his skin is so fair.

High Wire

Posted on November 25, 2009 by Rachel

Constant Elevation just played a pretty damn good trick on my eyes. I was like, “OMG! Norm come check this out!” and then he pointed out that he’s just holding a bike with no front tire, not riding a unicycle on a tight wire. Either way, I’m going to keep telling myself it’s a high wire act!

Chance of Meatballs?

Posted on November 24, 2009 by Rachel

I don’t know if you’ve seen “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”, I haven’t, but I have seen the new Best Buy commercial featuring Justin Timberlake and the characters in the movie. When I first saw this photo I laughed out loud. Swoon did an impressive and funny job. Though I’m not sure what else there is to do in St. Johns, Newfoundland in the middle of winter. These cute cheek piercings are by Craig Cutler of Trouble Bound.
