Thanks to George Zix for sending in these backpieces from the Sao Paulo (Brasil) tattoo convention.

Reading Is Good For You
Tattoo by Dan Forbes at Mojo Studios in Peoria, IL. The only time I’ve ever been to Peoria (when I was a kid; family friends lived there), I talked to a farmer for a long time about how his arm had been torn off by an auger. Then I went to a Ren Fair and watched some jousting.

White Ink Facial Tattoo Project
I’m loving where iam:pillpoppinfun is going with his (brand new in this photo) facial tattoo! Anyway, it’s a long weekend in Canada, so I’ll probably post next on Tuesday.
Now THAT’S gratuitous, Shannon.
Thanks to Off for helping keep things in Austin Powers territory. If you’re wondering about the motivator, it’s frosting. If you’re wondering about the strange perspective, it’s a loft bed. They’re not in a strange custom made box.
Amazing new invention turns all bras into underwire bras!

Abyssinian Tattoos Part II
I recently posted a historical article mentioning that in Ethiopia, mostly women get tattoos. John Durante sends in this photo of him and an Ethiopian client of his at Laughing Buddha in Seattle, Washington. I thought I’d posted it in the past, but I couldn’t find it — my apologies if this is a repeat.
Hope…
Timo’s scarification by Velma_Kelly in NYC. I “hope” he doesn’t read ModBlog because he might be a little freaked out about skin removal given the recent post on a keloid growing out of control!
