I really love the way this newschool-style skull implant, done by the folks at BodyTunning in Sao Paulo, Brazil, has turned out. The level of definition and detail is great — let’s hope it doesn’t freak people out like the brass knuckles implant did!

Art – Update
There may be an issue with the venue for Phil’s photography exhibition, there’s a chance the date may have to be changed.
Check back for details!
All Red Portrait Tattoo
Done at NIX (the Toronto tattoo convention) this year, I believe in response to a “you can’t do a portrait all in red” challenge, is AndyTheBollox‘s new tattoo! I’d say they succeeded.

Clicker Beads
These glass clicker beads (still probably a lot safer to implant than magnets) are intended to make noise even when implanted… These ones ended up in warowaro‘s genitals (if you read Dutch, you can check out his IAM page for more info).

Party Time! One week left for ModProm tickets!
There are about twenty tickets left for ModProm II, the main event (in my opinion) of the BMEfest day. You can get more details about BMEfest at BMEfest.com but to get your ModProm ticket online (and a shirt too), click here to get it at BMEshop with your credit card. If you need to make alternate payment arrangements (as in you don’t have a credit card), please contact Phil. Tickets will be on sale until Monday.
Other than that, “real” ModBlog posts start again tomorrow! Now get your ticket… or party in Russia with Dem (this photo is from their New Year’s party):
