Spider Tattoo Scar Augmentation
Written by
I was going to take the weekend off from posting here, but since people seemed to enjoy the idea of the hemangioma tattoo that I posted yesterday, let me add something in the same vein that I liked a lot as well. My friend Caglar, who tattoos at Tattoo Zone in Ankara, Turkey, had a customer come in that had surgery on his belly leaving him with a scar and several indentations — Caglar added a tattoo of a spider, with the legs stepping into the indents.

As I understand the rules of copying tattoos, if a white guy wants to copy a black guy’s blackwork tattoo, he has to do it in white ink, right? Ah, St. Petersburgh, I love your rejection of the Berne Convention. Copy or not, I do like the tattoo a lot.

Does this count as reusing needles? There’s another shot of Calico’s 18ga play piercings, with the needles woven in and out of the flesh, after the break.

Hemangioma Tattoo
Written by
I was going to write that this was a “hemangioma coverup”, but that’s not really right because it doesn’t cover up the hemangioma, it augments it and attracts attention to it even, but transforms it from random “defect” to something desired. Debelka Attila at Bizzzarttattoo in Cluj, Romania did the procedure.
