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.

  • Healed Y-Incision Autopsy Scar

    When I posted the Y-incision scar last spring it made quite an impression on people — it’s healed very nicely, with a nice solid raised keloid along most of its length. It was done on Singer by Brian of Pure Body Arts in Brooklyn, NY.

  • Anchors Away!

    I suppose it’s inevitable now that people have been installing dermal anchors in huge numbers for a year or two that I’ve started to see a flood of somewhat gory removal and rejecting photos… That said, as unpleasant as these particular pictures left, the scars are extremely minor.

    Top right rejection – Kate.

  • An assortment of food-themed tattoos

    I’ve been seeing tons of tattoos about food lately, and I was thinking that as the iceman got tattoos of the beasts he hunted and ate, so does modern man get tattoos of the feasts he “hunts” and eats — the original spirit of tattooing flows through these pieces? Haha, probably not. There are more after the break from the last few updates and of course tons in the BME galleries — let me start though with a “Sacred Reuben”, tattooed by Erik Russel of 4182 Tattoo in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

    Also “sacred”, bbirdeman‘s “Sacred Moonpie” neck tattoo by James Jorgenson of Bay Area Tattoo in Houston, Texas.

    Fetusinajar has a “church of pork” tattoo done by Bonnie Lou in Rockford, IL, claiming, “porkie goodness gets all the girls wet!” Well, greasy at least.

  • “Russian Criminal Tattoos”

    EnglishRussia, which previously brought us the bizarro entry on a very odd tattooed bodybuilder, today posted an entry with a large series of portraits of tattooed criminals (I’m not sure where webpark.ru plagiarized this from; if someone knows the real source, please feel free to post it). Click through for the whole set.

  • A New Knuckle Profile

    Continuing in Barcelona, Silas‘s implants, a set of three matching beads — sure to mess with any chiropractor that sits across from him on the bus — were done by Oscar Navarro of Void.
