BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

Father tattoos son

Written by

Shannon Larratt

I recently showed you a father being tattooed by his daughter, so let’s turn the tables. Chris Krahn (Krahnic Body Art in Boise, ID) is doing this great tattoo — Final Fantasy characters, a fractal, and the kanji for “love” — on his son. The tattoo was started on his 18th birthday.

    Technically… that says romance… or to be in love… not actually love which would be 愛.

    Just my 2 cents, heh.

    Aside from that I love Final Fantasy, and it looks good.

    FF = love.
    This is really beautiful, even though I’m not a fan of the relationship between Rinoa and Squall.
