Hey! When you’re done with today’s ModBlog entries (this is the last one for today), click here and check out my sister’s movie or I’ll set spike-dude loose on you! Clint, in the photo, is a custom leatherworker specializing in armour by the way if you’re wondering about all the gear. Sharp eyes will also notice his TeamBME tattoo.

“Orchid”
I mean, who doesn’t fantasize about pierced-up faux lesbian elves? These were tattooed by Joshua Johnson at Next in Vancouver.
Speaking of Elves…
I’d say Rose_Quoll has one of the most intense ear pointings (is that even the right word? it’s quite radically restructured!) that I’ve seen done to date. These photos were taken nine days after Howie (lunacobra.net) did the procedure in Brisbane, Australia. Very nice!
Guarani Facial Tattoos
I’ve posted about it before, so you know I’m a big fan of xGuizox‘s Guarani facial tattoos — here’s a photo of him, his nephew, and his brother-in-law at the beach.
These kids that are like, five, ten, fourteen years old, they stop me and ask “wow! are you an indian?” and I reply, “sure, just like you!” Most people here, especially in Rio, are a mix of Portuguese, Indian, and Black… and the Indian side I think is pretty cool.
Pretty Hands!
Done — as if you didn’t know — by the French Thomas at Into You in London, UK.
Boone from Nova Scotia
Nick’s tattoos are by Jerry at Wizzards in Cape Breton.
Miriena
Wow, Miriena has really pretty lips (and I like the neck tattoos as well) — vertical labret added by Nicc at Slave to the Needle in Seattle, Washington (four months old in this photo).
Girls will be girls
Chhhhhhop!
I love that you can see Marco’s tools in the background after his DIY thumb removal… It’s something I’ve always been interested in, but since the surgery on my leg I’ve been wanting to do a minor amputation more and more — my surgery caused some nerve damage so I have no feeling in part of my lower leg, and observing the different ways that my brain interprets it is just fascinating. I guess sometimes one is driven by fetishism, and sometimes by curiosity.
That said, I like having long opposable thumbs, so for me I think I’d go with a finger, probably the ring finger (I think Steve Haworth told me some time ago, when we were implanting the magnets, that if you’re going to mess with a finger, that’s the one to do because it’s the weakest, and even if you lose it completely it does not have a major impact on your ability to use your hand).
Double Monroe
Flea.Bitten‘s double monroe were done by Gre-gory at Mind Over Matter in Trenton, ON (not far from where I grew up). “Love the new additions to my pucker,” she writes. “These babies make me feel sexy! Haha.”
