Gray’s Anatomy Tattoo

I’m talking about the book, not the television show. Although who knows if the show is helping the popularity of the book among non-doctors (I’m thinking so because when this was submitted it was spelled “Grey’s” which is the show)? Anyway, these are ribs, tattooed on the client’s ribcage, by Ceasar at Body Shop Tattoo in Glendale, CA.

By the way, if I’m completely off the mark and this is from the show credits or something, someone please say so in the comments.

Tattooed Scarification Mosaic

OK, I didn’t think I was going to post anything else today but this piece is just so sweet that I had to add it. It’s on tigricula and was originally a kind of crappy tattoo. Then Brian (click on his name, he loves it when you do that), and then once it was well healed, it was touched up with tattooing by The Milkmaid (both at PURE in NYC).

It’s my personal believe that some of the high detail scarification that’s being done these days may not stand the test of time, but when you combine scarification with tattooing, you almost create an altogether new form of body art that I think we’ll see much more of in the future!

PS. Thanks to Rebekah from Modified News for the tip!

Rings galore

I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to find the time today to post to ModBlog! I may also have to take the next couple of weeks off because Jon and I want to do some major overhauling to BME to bring it out of the mid-1990s in terms of the technology that powers the site…. Parts of it are starting to feel dated and I appreciate you all being so patient with me.

Thanks to Melanie in Ottawa for sending me this photo of her side-corsets (ribbons were added later). The piercings themselves are care of Matt Cottrell.

Eagle Ass Tattoo

I mean no offense, but if it was me, I’d probably have chosen a slightly higher placement. Pardon the crudeness, but I can’t help but think that sex from certain positions would just be too much like fucking a chicken… I am so, so sorry for thinking that. That said, when I realized that this was on a hot Venezuelan care of the very talented Darwin (don’t be freaked out by the wizard if you visit his IAM page) at Mithos Tattoo in Caracas, I am reconsidering my policy on chicken fucking.

Have I mentioned before that I’m going to hell?
