This is Iguana Mike, a client of Shawn O’Hare‘s at Charlies House of Tattoos and Body Piercing in Ventura County, CA. What interests me the most about Mike’s (intense) modifications is the asymmetry — I think he’s one of the only people I can think of with such large changes where literal reflective balance has not been an issue.
Well that’s pretty neat-o!
So there are so many groups out there these days with various secret and non-secret sigils and various marks tattooed all over them. I don’t really know what this one means, or if it even is one, but here’s tan0k‘s ear lines done by Roman at Angel in Moscow, Russia.
You know, I’ve showed this to a bunch of people thinking it’s one of the greatest inner lip tattoos I’ve seen — I mean, it’s solid, creative, and most of all silly. But so far most people don’t agree with me… what do you think? I really like Jack’s tattoo.
I have no idea what Adrenalynn‘s “13 1/2″ hand tattoo means, but because it was done by her husband Mr. Genital Tattoo Jarrod Richardson at Psycho Clown Tattoo in Fort Worth Texas I am blindly guessing that the explanation has little to do with The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear would make me blush (well, if I blushed). But it’s a blind guess and I may be wrong.
Raze had this shot taken by Outlaw Posters Ink (which sells posters and prints, including this photo), with the work being done by Sean Dowdell, Burni Elis, and Matthew Martyr at Club Tattoo in Tempe, AZ.
PS. Attaching rope to surface work with any force is a bad idea so don’t think I’m seriously suggesting that!
Sorry this picture of Fancy Heart and AndSheWas is sort of pixelly… I don’t know what error crept in. Anyway, the original white satin sexy photo is by Lil Chris Thornton. Work in the photo by Rev Lower, Kyle Peterson, and Ill Capp at Evolved (Columbus, OH) and Anatomic Tattoo (Tampa, FL).
Seriously, I love that someone was so caught up in the holiday spirit that they went and got themselves tattooed as a walking Christmas and New Year card! That said, the tattoo is pretty piss-poor, so it’s a good thing they were able to go and get this great cover up by Ben Boston at The Tattoo Studio in Bristol, UK… Definitely a massive improvement!
“Hey ratsbane, I declare thee a droning toad-spotted flax-wench!” Oh wait… That was the string generated by the BME submissions system as a key (I use Shakespearean insults instead of hashes or SIDs internally). I would never say that to Heather! Tattoos by Tank in NH.
