“Tattoos of chicks with big boobs and guns”

Posted on January 26, 2006 by Shannon Larratt

So I recently asked what people wanted to see on ModBlog, and the above title is what I was told. Let’s get started on that with this tattoo by JR at HellCat Tattoo in West Palm Beach, FL, done on Turps211. You’ll also notice that there are some ads on ModBlog right now. Sorry to have to add them, but it’s become a financial reality — and big thanks to our sponsor (check them out and sign up for a free membership), and a big old “get the hell out of the conservative dark ages” to Google and all the other online ad agencies that refuse to deal with BME.

For now the ad is just on the front page, but assuming it goes OK I’ll put it on subpages as well, but I’ll keep it as discrete as possible. Oh, and if anyone from an advertising agency is reading this, feel free to contact us with a proposal ([email protected] is who you’d write).

Piercings as Tattoos?

Posted on January 26, 2006 by Shannon Larratt

Here’s a couple of tattoos of piercings, something that I get more often that you’d think. You may remember my old lecture on why corset piercings might not be the greatest idea… With that in mind I got a big kick out of Juli’s tattoo of a corset piercing. Also vaguely in the same theme is Adam’s heart by Paul at Fat Kats in Ocala, Florida.

I voted… for BEEF!

When Phil and I first saw this tattoo, it was the day after the Canadian election, so we were all excited that someone had gotten a “voter” tattoo. Truth of the matter, the symbol in this case actually stands for “USDA approved grade A meat” (done by The Hole Experience in Baton Rouge, LA).

The high-quality meat mark on the ass is actually not that uncommon — here’s another variation, on Kinderfeld69 who I believe is very proud of his meat. The tattoo is by Chip Beam at Artifex in Vestal, NY.

In another entry I should tell you the story of the first guy I knew with a similar piece (a “100% beef” brand)… He’s now in prison for being a child rapist — and I am so sure he deeply regrets his decision!

Shunga Tattoo

For those of you who want more (of the subject matter, not the tattoo), check out the Greg Kucera Gallery, or google it. The tattoo is by Magnus Skogs of Red Hot Tattoo in Mora, Sweden.

In a perfect world anyway

Mostly this is funny in a highschool kind of way because of the caption it was sent with: “Give me head until I’m dead.” I don’t know how long that would actually take, but I’m a patient guy.

Female Full Facial Tattooing

Posted on January 24, 2006 by Shannon Larratt

It’s rare to see women with really heavy facial tattoo work (hell, it’s rare enough to see guys with it), so I was very happy to stumble across IAM:coco12102 who’s continuing to expand her already significant coverage. IAM members can of course check out her page for more photos.

Laerdalstunellen

Thanks to Lene from Norway for this picture of her showing off her tattoo (rather boldly I might add… gotta love public nudity) in Laerdalstunellen , one of the longest tunnels in the world. The tattoo itself was done by Tommy at Au! Tattoo & Piercing (great name) in Bergen, Norway. For you redophiles, here’s a photo of the work being done.

If you think this is wild, you should see the front.

Insert Kimchi Here.

This is Shmylv‘s inner lip tattoo by Joy Rumore at Pure Body Arts in Brooklyn, NY. No, it’s not eroneous gibberish or random scribbles — it’s Korean, and it says “Kimchi”… Mmmmmm!
