Now that’s a geeky tattoo!
Thanks to The Eternal for sharing his new tattoo by Bear at Exotica in Florida. He also has “NERD” and “DORK” tattooed on his knuckles…

Have I mentioned my vacation to Belarus?
Assuming I haven’t been conned, this tattoo was done about eight years ago at Y Lisici in Minsk, Belarus. Note to readers: While I am very happy to accept modest photos and expect no more, it is true that the less clothes you have on when you take the picture, the more likely you are to appear on ModBlog! I don’t know if that’s something I should be ashamed of or not, but I’m trying to omit “shame” as an emotion I am capable of feeling.
Oh, and have I mentioned that ModBlog is often NSFW? Well, if you hadn’t figured that out already, I suspect you wouldn’t be reading this site anyway.
He’s a Christ Puncher
Sorry I haven’t posted more male pinups for you — guys, you need to send them in to me! Stop being so bashful! Let’s get started today though with IAM:kanashimi, who just about cut off his hand with a powersaw and needs your healing vibes.
I swallow? Facials please?
I don’t want to be rude and guess at the precise meaning of this particular gag finger tattoo… For all I know the “WTF” subtext gives it a definition of “if you cum on my face, I’m going to be royally pissed off at you”, rather than it being an invite for bukkake. Either way, thanks DTM for sending it my way.
Killing two birds with one stone
Yes, this person is being pierced and tattooed at the same time. Thanks to IAM:ToxicSkin (the piercer in the photo) from Original Skin Tattoo in Belvidere, Illinois for sending in this picture.
I AM
I’ve written about tattooed Christians in the past, and there are many of them on BME’s community site as well — some very Conservative and born-again, and of course many more free thinking ones as well (and plenty who’ve lost their faith). One of my favorites is IAM:GotPriapus who has a great “matching tattoo” with Jesus that I quite like conceptually.
Tattoo by Chris C. (after Stephen Sawyer) at American Tattoo in Pittsburgh.
Childhood Memories?
I like both of these two tattoos quite a lot. I’m down with demonic visions and skulls eating snakes and pinups and all, but sometimes it’s nice to see a sweet tattoo. On the left is FIVE!, done by Cedre at Diving Swallow in Oakland, CA — in the style of The Monster at the End of this Book (starring lovable, furry old Grover from Sesame Street). The tattoo on the right is by King Ron at Halo Tattoo in Liverpool, New York and represents a boy looking back on his childhood and remembering the neighborhood.
Love
I am a giant fan of the tattoo concept that Crumbs (want to learn how he got his name?) is working on. It’s a mix of very simple heavy geometric blackwork and solid color work with hearts and other primary shapes… Some time sooner rather than later I have to do a nice long interview with him for BME I think. Anyway, the work in this photo is by Lee Jonas at Alan’s Tattoo and Body Piercing in Moreton, England.
Does it ever get old?
Here is yet another in the expanding galleries of finger mustache tattoos, this set care of Trevor Magee at Celestial Ring in the Saint Stephens Green Shopping Centre in Dublin, Ireland (see also: finger mustache gaff tattoos)
Tattooed Nipples
I really love tattooed nipples… Stars, tribal, solid filled, flowers, whatever — I like them all. Here’s an example by Luis Botas at Kaustika in Mexico City (watch the studio scrapbook later this week for some great photos of their shop).
