BME: Body Modification Ezine

A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

    I swear, if young master xPUREx keeps it up, visiting his Williamsburg Pure Body Arts studio is going to be a mainstay checklist item for travelers coming to New York, right up there with poking around the Statue of Liberty, eating a slice of pizza from every parlor with “Ray’s” in the name and enduring crippling beat-downs after foolishly asking every woman in Times Square if she’s “working.” (Damn you, Giuliani!) Back to the issue at hand here, though, these implants are a nice fit, aren’t they? I guess that’s what one would expect with implantation by the aforementioned xPUREx and implant pieces carved* by Steve Haworth. Another shot, after the jump.

    *Not carved! Says the implanter himself: “These pieces actually were not carved. Steve was nice enough to attach some rods and domes together with silicone in it’s liquid form as a “glue,” so that i wouldn’t have to carve them.” Thanks for the heads-up!

    We took a look at this hateful hell demon a few months ago, when it had been freshly cut by Brandon Vermillion from Fillmore Tattoo (who you may remember as the young man who got his damn eyebrow cut off and ignited one hell of an amusing flamewar). Well, it’s a few months down the path towards healing now and, I have to say, still looks pretty damn angry and not just a little evil. Maybe it’s because he’s got all those teeth and no toothbrush? It’s hard to get a read on murderous hell-beasts these days.

    We all took turns admiring this wonderful corset piece a few days ago, largely because of how well it was coordinated with the wearer’s dress. Well, here we have some more lovely pierced corsetry, albeit placed slightly differently. I have to say, though, this project is a bit more difficult to fit into a whole ensemble, especially for a wedding. Unless, you know, she’s just wearing a pair of old school Keds or something. Hmm…hey, photo shoot idea!

    And of course, all the click-through and post-jump images you’ve come to know and love and expect from we here at ye olde ModBlog.

    Good day, ModBloggers! Now, let me ask you this: Is there a better way to start your day than with a cat winking at you? What’s that? You can think of literally thousands of better ways? Man. You drive a hard bargain, folks. Would it make you feel better if it were a one-eyed cat instead? Oh? It would? Well, take a peek after the jump, then! I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

    Unfortunately, there was no artist information included with these photos, but hey, who doesn’t enjoy a loving portrait of a pet?

    Welcome back, everyone. The cat’s in the bag and the bag’s in the river.

    Well kiddies, let’s knock off today with this handsome shot of Brian, hanging out in the shade, beaming out a cold, hard stare. Don’t try to look away. The stare will find you. Would the stare be any good at what it does if it couldn’t find you? No. No it would not.

    Sleep on that, ModBloggers. We’ll see you tomorrow.
