Pierre Andre from New Orleans sends in this sketch he did… I’m not sure what you’d have to do to get your ears that shape!

Andro and Candice
These wonderful photos (click for a zoom in) of Andro (Haunted Tattoos and Piercing in London, UK) and Candice were taken by Ashleigh at Savage Skin for a magazine interview — Andros tattoos are by Xed Le Head at Into You in London, UK, and Candice’s tattoos are by Andro.
Pierced-in-place Garter Straps
Mike Moore at Eternal Tattoos of Clawson, MI recently did this funny piercing project; a set of four pierced-in-place garter straps! Click through for a couple less gratuitous photos of it.
Loving you isn’t the right thing to do
This “Go Your Own Way” tattoo is by Airlie Aaron.
Giger Chestpiece
Click through to see the final piece on Nick J, which is about seventeen hours of work by Israeli tattoo artist Liorcifer (who among other claims to fame, gets mentioned in this over-the-top-idiotic anti-tattoo article), formerly of the Last Rites crew… Great work by Lior as always.
Another Set of Gag Knuckles
Timmo got his “Knuckle Sandwich” tattoo done by co-worker Cain at Fat Ink Tattoo in Newcastle, Australia.
The Italian Job
These gorgeous cuttings (both the healed work and the fresh ones) are by Brenno at Body Factory in Trieste, Italy. Click through for what I think is an even nicer photo of a back collar scarification he did (seriously, it’s worth it).
Oaxacan Coast
There once was a girl named Copper Wire
Whose tattoos (and curved bits) I’d admire.
I may blog her too much
But don’t you dare say such,
Because her pictures do make us perspire.
This is the sad state one finds oneself in when one does the seemingly incompatible acts of writing children’s books with poorly structured rhymes and blogging about beautiful people. Hey, it could be worse… “Because she elicits our sexual desire” rhymes too, hahaha. Anyway, two more nice photos from that beach that are better mod photos as well: one, two.
Jim Ward Audio Interview
Xeni over at BoingBoing has posted a nice follow-up interview with Jim Ward (available both in audio and in transcript form) about both piercing history, and the Louie (father of Karl) Rove piercing story. Click the picture of Jim to jump right to the interview now.
Branded Facial Stripes
Dave’s branding is freshly done in this photo, by Quentin at Kalima Modifications in Worthing, Sussex, UK. I really love how much facial work I see these days — when BME first started, it was almost unheard of, but now, I see new people with facial tattoos and scars and every day.
