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.
  • Heart in hand

    Or is it hand in heart?

    Whatever it is, it is an interesting design by Darigo Bonatto, yet another artist from Self Sacrifice in London.


  • That’s a lot of cock

    Viktor Sigil from Self Sacrifice in London sent in an interesting pair of tattoos that he did.  With four cocks to work with, the small changes in each design make them unique, yet thematically are so similar that they probably were done on two people who had some sort of bond, or just love the cock.  In any case, it’s always nice to see cock tattoos on ModBlog.

    Cock.


  • Derezzed

    First, I hope that everyone on the east coast is safe and secure after that shake-up that just hit Richmond.  I know a lot of IAM members live in the area close to the epicenter, including Rachel at BMEHQ.

    Now then, as his name implies, Joeltron is a big fan of Tron.  How big you ask?  Well take a look at this Tron Recognizer tattoo on the side of his skull.

    Naith from Absolution in New Zealand did this while at a guest spot in Sydney at First Blood.


  • Loving Summer

    Photographer Chris M Day has a knack for shooting BMEGirls.  Especially ones enjoying a hot summer day at the beach.  The only information I have about this set is that it was taken on a beach in New Jersey.  Unfortunately no information about the model, but don’t let that distract you from her beauty.


  • See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil

    When I first glanced at this tattoo by Nick Whybrow, I thought it was a simple “See no evil” tattoo.  Yet after taking a closer look, I saw that it represents all three.  Not only are the eyes covered and bleeding, but her ears are also filled with blood and her lips are sewn shut.

    Nick works at Self Sacrifice in London, England.


  • A Touch of Colour

    Earlier today we saw Max Harris’ self-done hand poked tattoo on his hand.  As I mentioned earlier, that was just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Max’s self done tattoos.  This incredible colour wheel on Max’s chest is another self-poked tattoo.  For his next trick, he’s going to tattoo his own back.


  • Angry Pigs

    In what can only be taken as an advisory tale to non-vegans, Jesse from Loose Screw Tattoo has created a piece entitled “Vengeful Vegans”.  Jesse’s cartoonish style really works well with the subject matter here.

    Check out the cartoon and comic tattoo gallery for more of Jesse’s tattoos.


  • Giger on the Danube

    Cruising down the Danube river at sunset is a great way to enjoy retirement.  Bosko’s Giger-inspired suit has been featured on ModBlog in the past, and it’s still incredible to see.  Especially set against such a beautiful backdrop.


  • He’s just THAT good

    What can I say that hasn’t already been said?  Ron Garza is a genius with a blade, and any one who doubts that need only look at this Hindi style Mosque that Ron cut recently while on the road.


  • A poke in the right direction

    When it comes to hand poked tattoos, the experience of getting them is often just as significant to a person as the tattoo itself.  With no machine, each and every prick of the needle is guided by the artist’s hand, creating a more intimate tie between the artist and the client.  This effect is magnified when one decides to hand poke themselves.  Below is Max Harris’ hand, and the butterfly/script hand poked tattoo that he gave himself.  While Max travels a lot, he is currently based out of Boston, MA.

    I’ve got one more of Max’s self-done tattoos for later today, so keep an eye on ModBlog to check it out.  You won’t be disappointed.
