WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! I love this!

Jonathanpiercing just sent in my favorite tattoo in a while, his body modification themed sleeve (love the gnarly split tongue and amputations!), in progress by Jee Sayalero at Freak Family in Illescas, Toledo (Spain). He’s a great artist (back in November I posted a tattoo pinup girl he tattooed) that does the convention circuit as far as I know, if you’re interested in work.

“They’re suspension scars, not backne!!”

Emily in Binghamton (tattoo done at Hand of Doom in Buffalo, NY) dropped me a line that she’s looking to get involved with or help start a suspension team in her area (everybody can do with a few paired dot scars to confuse the mundanes). I know it’s been in the news lately, but let me again remind you that for suspension things like this, as well as real-life stuff and BME’s resources, a great place to go is suspension.org.

Pro-Evolution Tattoo

One of Ryan Zachary‘s customers (Tattoo art by Ryan, Portland) felt strongly enough about the silly evolution versus intelligent design “debate” to get their comment on it tattooed on them! That said, it may turn out that early primates did live in the time of dinosaurs, although the odds of them wearing business suits would be very low I think. Only a modern human would degrade themselves like that.
