Their Geranium Kiss

Good morning, ModBloggers! Let’s kick off this here Thursday with this photo of famed international jewel thief, [name redacted], who, it just so happens, declined to reveal her identity when submitting this photo. How convenient. We are, of course, a fan of the lady-pompadour and the nearly symmetrical facial piercings, although we’re pretty sure we would personally go nuts if we were literally a single piercing away from such a feat. We think she can get away with it, though. Look at that face—not a jury in the world would convict her.

Our week’s almost over, folks—all in all, it’s no one’s fault.

Well hey, here we have the only half-evil (if that) Mr_Hyde, checking in from old Italia, showing off, among other things, that handsome cutting on his stomach by Lewis from Trimur Tattoo, in photos by Jacopo Lorenzini. This photo? We’ve got a click-through. After the jump, one photo does and one doesn’t. Guess which is which! I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

**wakes up**

**cleans self**

**puts on clothes and fall jacket**

**goes outside**

**melts immediately**

What’s that, summer? You’re sticking around for a while and robbing me of the chance to break out my earth-toned autumnal clothing? Well, fine. I am just going to enjoy a frosty cool beverage, then. I’ll be waiting.

And finally, gentle ModBloggers, we conclude our broadcast day with the lovely Danae, whose presence on these here internets we always enjoy. Does it get much better than a pretty lady sporting some fine tattoo work, clean and subtle piercings and some fancy leather pants? No. No it does not. Well, OK, maybe if she bought the leather pants from a traveling salesman in the Ozarks. There is, happily, another shot after the jump. Until tomorrow.

Oh, what’s this? Another excellent scarification piece by noted intergalactic traveler Anders at Flesh Impressions in Broadbeach, Australia (more), you say? Yes, that seems to be quite in character for him, indeed. Here we see his work on familiar muse James, explained by the artist himself as such:

It’s an old handmade key design from late 1800s-early 1900s—a single line cut with cross hatching to give the key a handcrafted old look. When healed, it will be a subtle and discreet scar on the hand.

If the result of their last collaboration is any indication of how nicely James heals this sort of work, we can’t wait to see this new piece a little way down the line.

And here, courtesy of the fine folks involved with Berlin, Germany’s Superfly Suspension crew, we have a suspension so nice you just want to hang it on your wall—which, um, was kind of the idea, apparently. This may have been done before (likely by the Superfly team themselves?), but we applaud a clever and well-executed take on suspension like this—one that’s a little more performance art than straight spectacle (not that there’s anything wrong with either, of course).

We do our best to give credit where it’s due whenever possible when we feature folks on ModBlog, but sometimes, if only a little information is included with people’s photo submissions, there’s only so much we can do. This, unfortunately, is one of those times, as the only supplementary information accompanying this series of shots was a mention that they came from Japan. But, hey, when you’ve got a bunch of good looking implants (the eye implant after the jump is pretty intense) like this, you just put it out there and hope someone claims it. Until that day, though, thank you, stranger! As mentioned, more after the jump.

Welcome back, ModBloggers! Hope you enjoyed your Labor Day long weekend, considering you are almost surely back at school or work or the acid mines or whatever it is you will be doing every day, forever, until Thanksgiving. Anyway, let’s kick off the next few months of daily drudgery with this adorable tattoo of, hmm, risky sex, we guess? This is what happens when Elvira and Dennis the Menace take a weekend getaway and the only movie on HBO at 3 a.m. is Auto Focus.

It’s Tuesday, dear readers. Back to school.

As we have made mention of many times in the past, ModBlog exists, if for no other reason, than to bring you, the handsome and erudite readers, the very finest in cephalopod-related body modification. Well, here we have a jaunty little octopus, cut into place by Brian Decker at Pure Body Arts in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Mr. Decker is currently gallavanting around Berkeley, California, doing whatever it is people do there (smoke medical marijuana and hate America), so feel free to get in touch with him if you are in the market for his particular brand of pain-infliction.

Enjoy your weekend and your Raekwon, folks!

This Week in BME

And finally, you lovely people, let’s wrap up our week with this bathing suit-area pull, facilitated by Steve and Tracie. If there’s a better metaphor for the end of summer, we have not been made privy to it.

So goes the week that was. What might you have missed?

– Aw, young love, starring John and Preston.

– Aw, lovely floral sleeves, starring various flowers.

– Mawwiage! This is a very positive week thus far.

– And it’s Natalee (a.k.a. the future Mrs. John Joyce)! Seriously, what’s with all this love and happiness? Can we get a zombie uprising or meteor strike or something?

– Oak is just chock full of implants now, courtesy of Steve Haworth.

– Oh God we are freaking out.

And that is that! We may not be around a ton this weekend on account of ye olde long weekend, but we’ll be back next week, refreshed and raring to go (maybe). Until then, compatriots, have fun, stay safe, celebrate labor (that’s what Labor Day is for, yes?) and, as always, thank you for your continued support of BME.
