Flesh staples (check out the cheek staples recently posted by the way — those look great), I think, maybe have fallen out of fashion a bit, but I still enjoy seeing them because they really do offer quite a unique look — Fabri’s double stapling was done by Manuel Carreras in Cagliari, Italy.

Previously: her scarification backpiece, a biker photoshoot, a nice portrait, and a porn convention snapshot.
This great cutting (ink rubbing, actually, although there’s no ink in these pictures) of a Dali elephant (click through to get a closeup of the cuts) was done on Obbe by Christiane of Pinpoint in Oslo, Norway.
Um… I don’t know what this baby pumpkin photo means — I guess I dropped out of art school too early — but I do like nape piercings, and if you click through there’s a very pretty and easier to understand photo of Voivodess. Piercings by Darcy and Brian at Freedom in Vernon, BC.
Znx from Sassari, Italy sends in this photo of his 0ga septum and stretched lobes.
This is actually a coverup of a real scar… Hey, if you’re going to have a scar you didn’t want, have fun with it (really, that’s the secret to life) — tattoo by Sky at Above All Tattoo in Pacific Beach, CA.
This cute little finger ring tattoo (um, please don’t get mad at me for calling a skull tattoo cute, I mean it in a good and very manly way) was done at Hype in Newcastle, UK.
Mada sends in this shot of her friend Sofran in Resita, Romania and his oldschool punk facial tattoos.
That reminds me; Phil who deals with 99.9% of image submissions here at BME is also a talented photographer (as if you didn’t know that, if you’ve been around BME for long) that’s recently started working on a series of portraits of people with tattoeod faces. If you’re in or passing through the Toronto area and are willing to take part, please drop him a line either through one of the just-linked sites, or by email at [email protected].
Gimpie-Modo‘s neck glows when he’s turned on under a blacklight… This UV ink tattoo was done by Jo at Spunky Monkeys in Newport Pagnell, UK. By the way, Josh (who you know from the eyeball tattooing) is considering trying UV in his eyes!
