Phlegmatic In Stature


Hey, it’s Anthony, the pride of Lompoc, California, hanging out on what appears to be the surface of the moon, smiling up at what must be some sort of high-tech space camera, showing off his 1 5/8″ lobes, eight-gauge labrets and microdermal philtrum, to say nothing of his fine old-school nautical forearm tattoo. Lookin’ good, fella.

How Do You Turn A Phrase?


Hey hey, it’s our old pal Mandic, checking in to show off his bearded clam! Wait, what? Oh, ha, it’s just a tattoo, not the actual sea creature/crude term for delightful female genitalia. Phew! As you can see, it’s conveniently placed in his armpit, so as to allow for maximum hilarity when his normal human hair grows back in, thus extending the “beard” and warming the cockles of our hearts. Let’s remember, though, that this is the same traitor who hates cheese, so let’s not go congratulating and back-slapping each other on a well-executed joke just yet. Ye olde procedural shot, after the jump.

Eternal Verities


Oh, hello! Welcome back, ModBloggers, on this fine Thursday. Let’s kick things off with our old friend, The Mighty Dannzilla, showing off some healed 12-gauge punched nostrils, a wry smile and that fancy Hyphy hat! There is literally nothing I am less qualified to discuss than Bay Area dance phenomena, so I will simply implore you all to get stupid and mercifully leave it at that.

The week is winding down, folks, and we’re moving in inches now.

What Am I, A Farmer?


Look, all I’m saying is, I appreciate Fyrezice‘s commitment to time-honored sartorial traditions like the bow-tie and the mustache. Mix that with the cigarette, and this is truly the Mad Men of self-done penectomies. All that’s missing is an 11 a.m. glass of Scotch.

(Disclaimer: This, of course, is not to be glib or to make light of this experience, which was, to be sure, not an endeavor to be taken lightly at all. Lucky for us, he has written down, in great detail, the entire process from start to finish, including not just descriptions of what physically took place, but lengthy discussions of his motivations and his life following the procedure. This is a truly fascinating account—we’d love to interview him, if not for the fact that he’s already gone into so much detail about everything. Eh, maybe we’ll still try. As well, his BME/Hard gallery can be found here.)

The Reeds By The River


We’ve been really privileged to be able to feature so many great bodysuits (or otherwise large-scale tattoo projects) lately, and, while we sadly don’t have the full-body shots to go along here, this is some truly excellent work—especially for the top of the head! On the downside, he will surely never find a job. More shots of our silver fox here and his noggin adornments, after the jump.

Gimme A Tuba


Oh boy you guys, mom and dad are gonna be PISSED when they see this paint everywhere, right? No? Oh, it’s just Kevin and Seth, having a good time while Niki snaps some shots? Well, fine. You kids got lucky this time. And, if that’s the case, then, uh, I think you missed a spot.

Sweet and Bitter


Greetings, ModBloggers! As most of you are surely aware, there is little we here like more than glorious/hilarious facial hair, or at least a clever approximation of such. Well, elad (pictured) and his lovely photographer, Ashley, certainly seem to have the right idea. We didn’t even realize you could buy mustache bandages, though we admit we’re intrigued. And even beyond that? ‘Tis a fine photo indeed.

Welcome to Wednesday on ModBlog, folks. Nothing bleeds the same.

Time An Endless Song


Whoa hey, a fine afternoon, isn’t it, folks? Let’s keep the good times rolling with this shot of the very lovely Fran, who is making, to our knowledge, her ModBlog debut. And an impressive debut it is, because, hey, who doesn’t enjoy well placed piercings and understated tattoos (which isn’t to say we aren’t fans of louder ones, either!) on pretty girls? Commie Nazis, that’s who.

This Terrible Affliction


Look, I’m not going to pretend I know what’s going through the mind of someone when they decide to get a tattoo that combines Mario Brothers monsters with the worst toilet in Scotland (courtesy of Trainspotting), but whatever it is, I am so, so glad it’s there.

“I have a customer who loves ridiculous tattoos,” says the artist, Kelly Doty at Turnpike Tattoo in Meriden, Connecticut, “which is great, because I love doing ridiculous tattoos.” She calls this one, strangely enough, “the majestic venus poop trap, found in its natural habitat.” Keep it up.

Sweet Lincoln’s Mullet


Last week, we mentioned Nae‘s gigantic silicone hand implants by Brian Decker and, apparently, ’tis the season, since the lovely Cour has checked in with this shot nicely displaying her very well-healed anchor implant by none other than Mr. Decker himself (previously, albeit slightly more obscured). And hey, if this sort of thing is up your alley, don’t forget to book an appointment with Brian for his trip to Columbus, Ohio, from July 29 to August 4. It’s just a good idea, alright?
