A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Hardcore Porno Tattoo

Also photographed by Lane at the Berlin Tattoo Convention 2005 is this extremely explicit tattoo. Now, I love it, and have a similar (well, Tom of Finland-style) piece planned for my leg, but I’ll ask him the same question that I ask myself when considering this motif: how the hell do you explain this tattoo to your kids (if you have any) — let alone someone else’s kids… I’d hate to be added to the sex offender registries just for walking down the street!

    Regardless of subject matter, that’s a really nicely done piece.

    Definitely better as a leg piece than it would have been as an arm one, I think – as you say, how do you explain it to your kids/mother-in-law/probation officer – but I like it alot, thematically and artistically.

    Am I brave enough to get something along the same lines – probably not!

    He actually had his forearms tattooed with erotic art as well. I found it interesting how comfortable he was with showing them of while looking you straight in the eye.

    I love this tattoo but understand your concern. I could see someone thinking that anyone with a tattoo this explicit would be a sex offender.
    If it were me and my kid, I would simply tell them that it is art and explain to my child that art comes in many different forms and is expressed differently through different people. Then I would remind them that many people will find it tasteless and vulgar, but it doesn’t make me a bad person. That everyone has a right to their own opinion.

    and hopefully they would understand 🙂

    This tattoo is extremely well done! It’s incredible. I’m not sure how I feel about it but when it comes down to it, it’s not how I feel that matters. As long as he is happy with it then all is well.

    Well done; pretty small cock though. Very disappointing in that regard.

    Oh good grief, he’s never going to get a date again. He’s going to drop his pants for a girl and she’s going to cringe away in horror. I have to say this is pretty unimaginative and crass IMHO.

    That said, nice use of negative space on the largest face.

    I’d have to agree with you Etoile, MOST women wouldn’t touch this guy with a 10 foot stick, at least not any with a smidgeon of self respect. but I guess when he makes it to prison for multiple counts of indecency he’ll be a popular billboard for shower masterbation. also seems to denote respect issues with women….. not attractive but I will admit the artist was talented.

    I think thats an amazing tattoo. I’m female, and I certainly wouldn’t be put off by seeing that on someones body, especially if I was getting down to fucking them. I’d actually like to get a piece done in the same vein as that one. Fucking gorgeous.

    As a woman who enjoys a mouthful I think it’s an awesome tattoo to be honest and a bloke tattooing it on his leg only tells me in advance of being with him that he’s into giving the odd mouthful which suits me!

    Quick question though does anyone know who the artist is?? I’ve been trawling the internet trying to find out and can’t find a thing on it so…………….anyone???
