“I got this one as a tribute to all the people who get flash Kanji and really don’t know if it says what they think it should (note the question marks).
We had a Japanese kid getting tattooed and I had him draw it up. He said it would look cooler in Chinese so we went with that..”

These are portraits of my mother and father. We have a really weird relationship so my butt was the perfect spot. I know it seems weird, but my mom almost cried, and my dad (the king of no emotion) sent me a text message simply saying “You rock!”
Pretty much the best decision I ever made!

I don’t have any other information on this other than bena “met this guy at a party and it’s supposed to say squeeze me.”
I haven’t forgotten what I said the other day, but typos are a little different, and I’m sure once the wearer realises (especially in such an intimate location) they’ll be chuckling along too.

All tattooed by Damien Dok at Wildstyle Tattoos (autoplayer), Johnson City, New York..
If you’re wondering why the owner of these tattoos (who didn’t include his details) is clutching a medal it’s because that particular piece won first place in the “Best Piercing Within Tattoo” category.
Where’s the piercing you’re thinking? Well, the devil’s sporting a septum piercing but I found an earlier shot on Gok’s Myspace page and the poor religious figure being strangled is sans septum. I wasn’t sure if it was tattooed at first but as the sender added that it was pierced by Jason at Spider Bite (New Hampshire) and he won an award for it, I can only assume it was!

With chicken after chicken being violated, the staff at BMEzine.com are under increasing pressure to solve a string of crimes dubbed “The Case of the Phantom French Chicken Choker”. We now go live to a press conference with Benoit, who apparently has a confession to make..
“I really don’t know how this happened but on Saturday afternoon on my way back home, I received a weird phone call from the other half.
She and Marc had a really good idea for a tattoo I should get that very same evening!“
– Benoit.
Tattoo by Marc. Click through for a larger view and here for a different take on the “crime”.

Anyway, this in progress sleeve and shoulder piece is the hard work of Darlene DiBona, Fat Ram’s Pumpkin Tattoo, Jamaica Plains, MA.
It’s also the brainchild and on the skin of iam:Skod.

This heart implant on Penny was designed by Steve Haworth (www) and inserted by Jessestar (more)..
You can click above for larger images and here for an animated gif of (a small part of) the procedure, unless you’re on a 56.6K modem, in which case I wouldn’t advise it.
