Great Baby Portrait
And this is the first color portrait he’s ever done! This is by Paul Oliver at Lucky Soul’s Tattoo in Cambridge, Ontario. Definitely a very good vert attempt!

Unusual Vertical Upper Lip Piercing
This seems like an unusual placement both in terms of depth and where it lies on the lip… “Name it,” writes Marilyn from Venus Modern Body Arts in NYC, who did the piercing.
LOUD PROUD & PUNK
(anarkhos, seen previously defying gravity).
Two point lower back suspension
A two point lower back suspension is a pretty intense style to choose for your very first one — and that’s what Chantal did with the help of Andrew S and Swing Shift Sideshow in Las Vegas.
“Knee Pussy” Tattoo
P1nch3 had this pierced “knee pussy” done by Rafael Casaro at Arte Sana in Sao Pablo. And don’t mess with him, he’s a doctor — presumably a gynecologist. And now some related tattoos, for those of you who need a little more outer labia, a little more teeth, a little more religion, or a little more Japan.
Figure 8 Tattoos
I really like iam:minneapolis‘s figure-8 tattoo! This picture (which I think I pushed the levels on too far, sorry — check his page for a picture that also includes spandex) was taken after the second session by Cerny at Steady Tattoo in Minneapolis, MN.
Autopsy Scar, Sans-Autopsy
Singer just got this intense Y-incision skin removal by Brian (more) at Pure in Brooklyn, NY… This will be very disturbing to a morgue attendant at some point in the future!
New suspension book!
Great news, but first a big congratulations to Matt Larkin for the indie release of his first book. For the last few years he’s been shooting the folks from Rites of Passage using ambrotype photography (ie. wet plate, a 19th century technique that’s rare these days). Click on the pictures to jump to BMEshop where it’s available (and visit Matt on IAM if you’d like to see more pictures).
I’m eagerly watching my mailbox for my copy, I’ve been looking forward to this book for a long time now!
