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.

You call yourself a Misfits fan?

Damn!!!! I really think this is the most intense facial tattoo I’ve ever seen in terms of radically transforming a person’s interaction with the rest of the world… and speaking as someone with a facial tattoo, I definitely feel like this is going to be a shock to his system. Very, very intense; I’m seriously impressed at the size of his FTW balls… Turning your face into a death mask is, just… wow…

    Disfigurement my ass. He’s a responsible adult, I’m sure he’ll live with the consequence of his actions. It’s pretty high and mighty to suggest (which you do in between the lines) he hasn’t thought about his future – you think this guy just walked into a studio and said “what flash have you got?” and walked out with this? Besides, there are a hell of a lot of jobs where you aren’t facing the public, where his tattoo won’t matter. “he should be ashamed of himself” ..Pwah..

    Disfigurement?!!???!!
    This is a BODY MODIFICATION blog. What the fuck are you doin’ here if you think that a tattoo (not a simple one, I agree; but STILL a tattoo) is such a ”horror” thing?

    I hang out with this guy on a regular basis, he has a higher paying job than probably most of the assholes on this site, and higher than most people I know. HE’S the one who made his bed, let HIM lie in it. His future isn’t your problem.

    A few comments from a non-tatooed tatoo lover:
    * Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder
    * I think he is beautiful
    * It’s cool that he has the courage and conviction to express himself
    * I’m turned on by his artwork >;D
    * Hope I can see more pictures someday!

    I really like this one, and I think it’s great that it turned out to not only be a really cool thing to do, but the tattoo is so well made.

    I think it’s a great idea. It’s his life to do with it as he chooses. I personally wouldn’t do it, but I love horror ink and have a lot of ink myself, even on the back of my hands.

    To the people too ignorant to read or pay attention.

    1. Yes it is real
    2. No it’s not the Misfits skull, it’s “A” skull
    3. His ears aren’t dirty, theres ink residue from the tattoo process on his ears
    4. Pimples? Really? You’re looking at a pic of a guy with his entire face tattooed and you’re focusing on pimples?

    5. This guy will never have a problem getting laid, any more then any heavily tattooed guy has that problem. We just find tattooed ladies who appreciate it.

    6. A Zombie body suit is brilliant and something I find a lot more interesting, daring and dynamic then making yourself look like a Tiger, Lizard, or giant puzzle pieces.

    Cheers to the guy, if I ever see him I’m buying him a beer.

    I was throwing around the idea of getting a facial tattoo, and not knowing anyone with any tattoos period, I looked on Google to see what kinds of facial tattoos others had gotten. he first thing on Google’s list was this post here, so I thought I’d check it out. WOW! I was just thinking of getting either a star or a crescent moon on my forehead, but this guy… OMG! It’s like his whole face was turned inside out! That is so strange! I don’t know wither to love it or hate it. On the one hand it’s amazing, yet on the other had it creeps me out. Well, he’s certainly got guts, I’ll say that for him.

    The argument “Well, he’ll never get along in the real world,”/”He’s ruined his life for x-amount of time,” always seems to be thrown around as if the people with mods like this aren’t living in the real world. As if having just posted your pictures of a modification is the beginning of your life and you will have no idea how to handle any adversity that comes with living.

    I would think that anyone who would make the decision to be such a showman would understand that you have to take the negative with the positive.

    Also, it isn’t as though there aren’t products such as Dermablend if it ever comes to it.

    It is a very interesting piece. When it comes to aging with it, I’m just curious about how the skull with start to migrate as his skin goes saggy.
