It should come as no surprise that Steve, John and Wayde are the suppliers of (and inspirations for) these most graven of images. On Easter Monday, no less!
Says Steve:
Mr. Wayde Dunn-Dee himself did this amazing scar portrait on a friend of ours. We were hoping to find a fourth person she would agree to add on so he could do a Mt. Rushmore of Awesomeness, but sadly that didn’t work out.
I have to be honest—I’m a little surprised she went this far in the first place. That said though, we haven’t seen a ton of scarification portraits yet, but…these are pretty well executed. More photos, after the jump.

It is sad though that she decided not to put Cere in there as well though.

can we see this once it heals, as awesome as cuttings look when they are first done ive noticed a lot of the really small detailed stuff ends up healing up all the way, fading, or blending together just making it one big scar ruining the initial look. great work though looks great, (for now)

man, if someone wants to get their hands/neck/face tattooed before anything, so what?
i’m tired of people acting like there’s a special order you have to get tattooed in. like, first you have to get some work on your legs/arms, then get some on your back/then you can have your chest piece/etc. it’s bullshit.
i don’t really like it, i mean it’s alright for what it is.

I’m curious about how Wayde’s beard will look like when it’s healed, it looks awesome fresh as it is here
Love the CombiChrist logo too =D

Fair call, I cannot see either her back or legs or what have you, but her arms are defantely bare and it really looks like shes one of these kids on the trend of hitting up ink on visible areas because it’s so cool as shit these days. Hands and necks are meant to be special super obvious places that you leave until you’ve been under the needle for years and have a lot of great work executed on you elsewhere. I think its really sad that it’s more of a ‘wow everyone will be able to tell that I’m one of the cool inked people if I get my hands/neck/face tattood!’ Come on you all know it’s so fucking true these days! Thanks in many to sites like this and other less substantial media (and just personally, my opinion is that unless your a tribesman/woman, facial tattoos are just dick in-largers, hey I am SO badass alternative, can’t you see?)
As for her scarification, I stand by my comment, super groupie gone bad. This modification train is fun to watch, especially as it turns into a fashion show train wreck. I definately don’t think this broad was forced into anything, and for the record I think that Wayde guy is one of the most talented artists to come out of this scene since it started, but jeeesh, you *have* to be crying out for cool points to rep this, seriously. Right above her private genital area too. Supposedly a special place, that is now host to a scar worthy of internet chatter for a while. Wow, she’ll be stoked on that in 10 years….

I laughed so hard I think I peed a little! I agree with Steve, Cere would have rounded out it nicely.
I think the real question here is how it will look after a pregnancy? The boys should get facial scars of any stretch marks that arise. Now that would show some real dedication to the art.

Oh boy K you’re one of *THOSE* people who think that everyone who gets a tattoo nowadays is following a trend and you’re better then everyone else because you have more ink or had it longer. Like stfu already you sound like a tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool.
I really like her arm pieces and closeups would be lovely. As for the scar, I dont like it too much. All of their faces look weird.

I completely come to the side of K on this one. While it is excellent scar work, aside from that it’s pretty much a ridiculous attempt from a “groupie” to earn some type of respect from guys who already needed an ego check to began with.
(reality check- the universe revolves around the sun, NOT you!)
Of you 3 boys permanently put on this girl’s body, how many of you can’t say you were pretty excited about the idea, and actually in the coming days before this were actually urging and pushing on with this idea on this poor girl.
As for the “poor girl”, yes she doesn’t look to be heavily modified in these pics, but from stainless’s account she is. I get the point of getting whatever tattoos, and piercing you desire, but fucking hell, do it for yourself, not to fucking fit in, and look badass, which it seems like she’s doing. I really hope she is dating one of these egotistical boys, cuz this ridiculous( though well executed) pieces will forever be the mockery of her sex life, if it doesn’t stop it all together.

the portraits appear flat and busy. poor idea, poor execution.

I’m not going to say that this isn’t a really well done peice. I am, however, going to say that this girl is a fucking idiot. K, I’m with you all the way. Now she has to live with it.

As for it being a funny scar, exactly how is it funny? I mean it might be funny for a minute, but at the end of the day it’s just scars of three guys. Not exactly prize winning material, and certainly nothing that will age well comedy wise. I wish more practitioners, especially more of the “big name” ones, would say no to vanity projects like this.
That is going to last for the rest of that girl’s life and it’s a freaking shame. At least a tattoo could be covered.

Aric, It’s a shame that you’ve disfigured so many poor people by piercing them as well. Those are scars that will be on them the rest of their lives. I mean even though they’re adults and can choose what they want to do to their own bodies you still didn’t have to do the piercings. That being said, there should be a lot more people like you out there to police what every person decides to get done on their body and make sure it’s ok with you before they do go through with it.

Exactly. This is clearly more about the three guys rather than about the scar or the poor girl brandishing it. Speaks volumes about the ‘industry’ and it’s practitioners(or is it rockstars?) in my opinion. I bet if you went to all three of their iam pages they would have this in their diaries, but I guess that was the point? 🙂

Would have been waaaay more legit if they got this done on themselves instead of on some eager-to-please fan. It would imply more comedic value as a scar, and less as a status thing that way.

stainless: yes, she’s an adult that can and did make her own decision and I guess you’ve proven that she’s fairly heavily tattooed. but the fact of the matter and my point is that she could be more tattooed than lucky diamond rich and this would still be a bad, unfunny(where exactly is the humour?) mod. the dude that gets a bad taz tattoo might be an adult making his own decision but that dosn’t mean it still doesn’t suck.
and comparing these scars to the scars left from closed piercings is like comparing watermelons to cherries.
i think you guys are just upset that some people spoke up negatively on modblog instead of mutually masturbating/justifying something that really isn’t that great at all.

Mutual masturbation lol so f. true on this site.

I”m not justifying anything, nor am I looking for anyone else to justify it. And I’m definitely not upset. I think what she did was funny, and I think it’s even funnier that people on here get so upset about what someone else does to their body.
Just because you think something sucks doesn’t mean the person that has it thinks it sucks or doesn’t like it. And I”m sure no one really values your opinion that much that they wouldn’t get something they want done because you don’t like it.

To all of you who are accusing the girl of just being another groupie stroking the ego of the three guys:
How do you know she isn’t friends with them? Maybe the scarification has more significance than you’re letting yourselves imagine. And oh yeah….Why do you care so much???

why cant a scar be covered up? sure it can. do some of these people think?. im really surprised nobody has even asked why she chose to get those 3 faces.Im also never surprised that the only negative ones are the ones that are not members on the site.
