Antlers
The lovely Dunebug has one of my favorite implants that Steve Haworth has ever done — the textured pieces running across her collarbones — augmented with tattooing by Jackie Brown at No Ka Oi in Philadelphia. I’m a big fan of her work and aesthetic in general!
Anti-Tragus Removal
A few weeks ago I posted on my personal blog that I wanted to remove my anti-tragus — so I was quite pleased to get this freshly done anti-tragus removal from iam:Howie (aka LunaCobra.net). His procedure for them is to elevate the skin off of the cartilage and then removal so that there is enough skin to comfortably stitch around the new form. Very cool to see these in a modern/Western context! If giant labrets and giant nostrils can come back into style, I hope this can as well.

Play Piercing Titillation Shot
Thanks to SarahScar sending in this photo (with more on BME) of her second play piercing session.
Ex-Husband Memorial Tattoo
Melz sends us this photo of the memorial tattoo she had done for her former husband, portrait tattooed by Leslie Allen, at the time tattooing at Body and Soul in Gutenburg, NJ. Far too young to die! (Vaguely related: In Memorium)
That’s a lot of hood piercings
I don’t see hood ladders that often — let alone a five-piece ladder (not counting the triangle) — so I thought I’d share it here. More are of course in the female genital piercing galleries on BME.
Christ Baptism Backpiece
First of all, if you’re reading this and it’s the top entry on ModBlog, the latest update on IAM is down a few entries. I’ll post another one later tonight. I’ll probably have to replace a couple components on the machine, so if you’d like to help out, please take a few pictures (if possible for BME/extreme or BME/HARD, but navels help too!) and email them to [email protected] (the online submissions forms are offline). And now back to your regularly scheduled programming…
What a wonderful photo! It sure looks like somewhere I’d rather be than here dealing with computer problems, ha! Click to take a closer look at the tattoo.
“puncture envy, needled veggy”
The full picture series (which will be in next image update) is labelled and ordered, “Introducing… Entering… Observing… Planting… Stretching… Thinking… Feeling… Resting… Closing…” I guess that’s as concise a way as any to describe the play piercing experience!
Dan Eldon Inspired Tattoo
“What is the difference between exploring and getting lost?”, from The Journey is the Destination by Dan Eldon (a photojournalist, artist, and adventurer that was killed while reporting in Somalia), tattooed at Dickmann Tattoo in Denmark. I guess if I was going to answer the question I’d say when you’re exploring, you’re seeking out something new, but when you’re lost, you’re seeking out something familiar.
