Triff_id sends in this photo of wife (I think!) having her tongue split. I know the reigning consensus is that tongue-splitting really isn’t particularly traumatic, but that’s a pretty stoic face nonetheless. Russians are of a hearty stock, indeed.

Huh, what do you know? I just got up, and … now I think I have to go lie down again. Funny, that.

Oh holy shit, what is this? The actual Devil? It looks like some goddamn sea monster with a face that was created by letting one of those 1950s-era diving helmets soak in nuclear waste. I mean, it’s a great tattoo, but I don’t understand why c.A feels the need to haunt me by getting tattooed with Poseidon’s nightmares.

And another week down. What happened this time around?
– A woman’s lovely tribute to her parents.
– A public service announcement … with GUITARRRRR
– We talked about adapting paintings into tattoos.
– Gothic Clark Kent showed up.
– We saw a brilliant Asian-inspired sleeve.
– Hey, zippers!
Anyway, we’ll be around this weekend. We’ll even have a new interview up at some point! Good times. Whatever you do, be safe. Have a great weekend, ModBlog, and, as always, thank you for your continued support of BME.
Meltbanana sends in this wild skin-removal piece (of her husband’s hand-print) done by Lukas Zpira while he was at Officina Tattoo in Milan, Italy. I like the sentiment; it’s like a friskier take on a wedding/commitment tattoo or scar. Another shot, after the jump.
Phwoar blimey, he’s a busy man isn’t he! He’s got four working offices!!

And here we have a portrait of Suicide Girl Zepp Suicide, on her boyfriend, and done by Johnny Stiletto at Baltimore Street Tattoo in Hanover, Pennsylvania. I have to say, it’s not uncommon to hear (former?) models complain about the conditions when working for Suicide Girls, but the fact that they’ll extend contract offers to the grisly undead? Hey, that’s pretty progressive.
