I don’t know if they’re a coverup, but I love the big blackwork tattoos in this great DIY play piercing photo from knifeinthemarathon a lot.

Slipknot Portrait
For that small number of you unfamiliar with the line-up of Slipknot, that’s a portrait of Corey, the lead singer (who wears a mask), done by Denis Prevost at Live Once Tattoo in North Bay, Ontario. I like the inverted hand tattoo on the hand!

Almost healed
Steve Truitt (Stay Gold, Albuquerque, NM — but given how regularly he’s featured here I’m sure you know that by now!) has been slowly sculpting *Stitch* (this piece was posted fresh as well) into a scarified dreamgirl. Seriously, the number of gorgeous people, male and female, who are now choosing scarification as their dominant personal artform grows all the time… I love it!
Vampire’s Slave
This scrawny git got his conches dermal punched, and now they won’t stop bleeding… Luckily (or unluckily) he lives in the basement of a Ravenloft Castle and is slowly being drained of his fluids anyway.
Lucky Cat Backpiece
I like Bambina‘s backpiece, recently finished up by Snir at Psycho Tattoo in Tel Aviv, Israel.
JUDO CHOP!
Or to put it properly, Atemi-waza! Personally I prefer simple old joint locks… Massaar just got this funny tattoo (“Austin Powers-ish, I know”) by Daniel Innes here in Toronto.
So cute, even with clothes
little miss strange, previously featured in socks alone.
Because ribbon was getting old
…from now on temporary corset piercings will be laced with a snake instead of fabric, ok?
