We started with the horns, then the phoenix scar, and now we have this triquetra implant to complete today’s Brian Decker trifecta. I’m guessing this photo was taken after it had healed as the skin has formed nicely around the implant.
That time when you’re shaving your head and you accidentally nick your horn. Hopefully SteveOrganic‘s horn healed up quickly.

Oh you know, just another awesome scar from Brian Decker. This one just happens to be on IAM: Theycallmeanna.

Oh Brian Decker. Is there anything you can’t do with a scalpel?
First he cuts, then he burns. Sure that may sound like the tagline to a horror film, but it’s also how Brian Decker creates incredible pieces like this one.
He did this piece during a guest spot at Twisted Images in Louisville, KY. Brian is also hitting the road soon and visiting Ohio in December. If you’d like to get some work done, just get in touch with him.
They say that the family that cuts together stays together, which seems somewhat fitting for Starr and Brian. Working out of his NYC studio PURE Body Arts, the couple did this collaboration piece of a BME Logo and pair of AK-47s.
If I recall correctly, Brian did the logo, while Starr did the guns.
While we’re on the subject of BME, the BME NYE party is happening again this year. Located right by King’s Dominion in Virginia (outside Richmond), BME HQ is going to be the venue for the festivities. You’re welcome to camp on the property, but the hotel is only a couple of minutes away. We’ll have basic food and drinks, but you’re more than welcome to bring extra. Once we get confirmation, we should be able to say with certainty that there will be suspensions on site. So, if you’re up for a great time this New Year’s, head on down to BME HQ!
Slow and steady wins the race. And while Brian may not be the fastest racing snail, he does make the coolest looking ones. By the looks of the photo I’d say this is one of his cutting and burning combo pieces, with the cuts for the lines and branding for the shading.
Here fishy fishy fishy…
Brian did this cutting a little while back when he was doing a guest spot in Berkley, CA
In keeping with the theme from my last post, “mods that stir up a genuine sense of awesomeness for me”, I present to you Mason’s (who you may remember from this Modblog gem from the past ) deep chest “piercings”. I say piercing in quotes, because while these are opening in the skin filled with a piece of jewelry, the procedure to get them there (and healed) was FAR from a piercing.
When I first saw this picture on Tumblr, I shot Mason a message I wanted 2 things: a) a better photo of this mod and maybe some additional photos. b) his permission to post this on modblog. That little bastard never responded to me and I realized 2 things: a) this mod is so AWESOME that if all we can get is a homoerotic myspace mirror shot, then that’s what we will post! b) This is Mason, am I really waiting on permission from him?
Since I never got the full 411 from Mason, I am basing the following information on what he told me a long time ago, and my own theories so if anyone involved with this project wants to jump in and correct me, please do so.
These “piercings” started as subdermal implants done by none other than Brian Decker (if memory serves me correct). After the subdermals were allowed sufficient time to heal, they were removed which left behind a healed fistula. Then the entry and exit points for the new “piercing” were opened by Howie and teflon jewelry was inserted. (Thanks to Tony for correcting me on the implant to piercings steps). This left behind a piercing that would be nearly impossible to heal using traditional manners and a mod that I have only actually seen one other time…and that was on Fakir Musafar!
Today’s follow-up is only four months old, but it’s looking great right now so I figured it was due for a follow-up. You might remember back a few months to this scarification by Brian Decker.
If you recall, Brian was tipped with 4 live lobsters for doing this piece. The lobsters that Brian used for comparison are long gone, but the scar remains. To see how it looks today, just keep on reading.
See what I mean about it looking great? Hopefully we’ll get more healed photos as the scar turns white. Keep an eye on Brian’s BME gallery for any updates.
