Hot on the heels of this outstanding flesh-removal piece from earlier in the week, we turn the spotlight once again to Jimmy Xayyabanha at Straight A Tattoos in Asheboro, North Carolina, who, apparently, is just killing it right now. I apologize if this is a recognizable profile on whose identity I’m blanking, but either way, this is one of the finer pieces of scarification portraiture we’ve seen in a while.
Whoa hey, straight outta Budapest comes this cutting by Gábor Zagyvai at his eponymous studio in the aforementioned Hungarian capital. This piece is well into the healing process, and, happily, is affixed to someone with an appropriately warrior-esque body to boot. If, however, you do find yourselves engaged in a decades-long battle of attrition with him, his only weakness? Gift horses. Roll one of those suckers up to his front door and you’ll be sacking that castle in no time. A close-up of Gábor’s handiwork, after the jump.
Good day, ModBloggers! Let’s get the ball rolling today with this handsome “neo-tribal” scarification sleeve by Micael Faccio out of recent ModBlog hot-spot São Paulo, Brazil. The scarification sleeve is still a relatively rare phenomenon (although surely not unheard of), but efforts like this certainly make us optimistic about future prospects.
Whoa hey, this beautifully shaped flesh-removal scarification piece comes to us from Jimmy Xayyabanha at Straight A Tattoos in Asheboro, North Carolina. This one’s just about the complete package, folks—something for everyone, from those within the body modification community to font nerds to board game aficionados to your run-of-the-mill scab collectors. The piece seems pretty fresh here and will surely be something of a different beast altogether once it’s healed, but this is nothing if not an exercise in precision and evenness, so we’re looking very forward to seeing how this bad boy turns out.
Hey now, our old pal Anders has checked in from, we don’t know, somewhere amongst the spheres and galaxies, to show us this intense skin-removal piece he performed two months ago. Of course, scars are still apt to change beyond two months into healing, but sweet sassy molassy, this is shaping up beautifully. This is why, if you can help it, you always go to an alien for your various body modification needs, at least when you’re in Broadbeach, Gold Coast, Australia. Close-up shots, after the jump.

Welcome back, folks! Hope you all had the loveliest of weekends (and are continuing to enjoy a long weekend, if you have the fortune of being a Canadian government employee). Let us begin the ever-illustrious Shark Week with this intricate, Flower of Life-ish cutting by Brendan Russell at 2012 Tattoo and Piercing in Newcastle, Australia, who writes in to say, “ModBlog my arse, I am always submitting my work to you and other crap gets put up.” Ha ha, zing! Well, here you are, Sir. This is pretty tremendous work here.
Let’s get off on the good foot this week, ModBloggers, even if whales are more your speed than sharks.

I just assumed this was a Lionel Out Of Step piece when I first saw it, but no! Bested again! This chest tattoo, belonging to kipich, was in fact done by Montreal’s own Yann Black at Glamort. I love tattoos that are creative with their use of space, so this? This really does it for me, not to mention the sleeve and the scarification. High marks all around.

Ahoy-hoy, ModBloggers! Let’s roll out today with this damn-near perfect hand grenade cutting by our favorite intergalactic scalpel-wielding space creature, Anders “Alienboy” Allinger at Flesh Impressions in Broadbeach, Gold Coast, Australia. Is the wearer a soldier, perhaps? An anarchist, maybe? Or, more sinister than anything, a Green Day fan?
And holy holy, it’s Friday, folks. Feel free to bottle up and explode.

Gahhh, sorry once again for the late start, you lovely people. Here is some sage advice for anyone reading: Don’t move. Ever. Wherever you are, right this second, just plant yourself in that spot for however many years it takes until you are gifted with the sweet release of death. It will be worth it. Ha, depressing! Let’s cheer up with some nice, relaxing koi—or, at least, this fine cutting of some nice, relaxing koi by the very talented Rata.

Hot on the heels of our esteemed religious coverage from earlier this week, Andrea at White Light Tätowierungen in Berlin, Germany, sends in this photo of a cutting she did months ago, well along into the healing process and looking pretty fantastic, yes? Yes. Sure, the Owl God is nowhere to be found, but He’s always there in spirit, hootin’ the night away, swooping down to swipe rats and beetles out of the soil for all of eternity, amen.
