I’m currently converting some of my old blogs from before ModBlog started to a new CMS, and I’m finding so much great old stuff on them (since I posted modblog-type stuff there before starting this site)… Here’s a tattoo that got posted in early 2005…
I love how incredibly happy Davide looks about how his swastika-themed scarification by Ze is turning out… Definitely one of my favorite pictures of the day — a second one continues after the break. Oh, endorphins, how I love you.

Sexnar (members, check out his awesome bonus gallery) sent in this intense picture. Got a guess before you click? Post it. Warning though, this is quite graphic!

Continue reading after the break for more wonderful photos by David Riedel of Samar suspending at the San Francisco Armory, assisted by Erik Dakota and Andrea Costantino, transitioning from a resurrection suspension to a suicide suspension.
Pineapple recently pierced Bear’s nipples at 8ga at Shaman Modifications in Austin, TX, so I had to share this great picture of the two of them after the procedure. Both of them have some of my favorite facial tattoos, and of course Bear has amazing stretched lobes, some of the biggest on the planet.
PS. As a point of trivia, did you know that BMEshop once produced some prototypes of a Bear action figure (which never went into full production unfortunately)?
Check out these amazing snowflake scars by Ryan (see his scar-specific site) from Precision Body Arts in Nashua, NH. After the break there are some photos of pieces he’s just added to this skin removal leg sleeve, as well as another example of a fresh and healed piece he did.

Maile sent in this shot of her late grandpa and his zipper tattoo, done by Rio at Hot Ink Tattoo in Vallejo. She explains, “he had a double bypass and wanted the zipper tattooed with a lock so they couldn’t open him up again.”

Rafa‘s still at it with his labret embiggening escapades (first video* in case you missed it).
This time he’s going from 46mm to 52mm, the old fashioned way!

*Sorry about the unflattering screenshot I chose as the preview Rafa, oh wait, no I’m not \o/
I just liked these portraits (two more are after the break) of Tasha taken while she was on vacation in the Dominican Republic… It made me miss the Caribbean… I just got an email about an earthship building seminar in the Netherlands Antilles this summer, and as much as I imagine that spending a week sledgehammering in the sun is kind of miserable, I’d love to go.
Anyway, an update is building right now that has some changes that I think will make the members galleries load a hair faster for viewers (and I’m glad people seem to be enjoying the ability to contact each other via their photos), although it now takes longer to build them here! I’ll upload it as soon as I can.
Nice work by Jason Weipert at Mystic Tattoo in Hazel Green, Wisconsin…
