Versus Mr. T!
By Jimmy Lomax at Skin Graffiti in Bury, Lancs, England.
Risin’ up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I’m back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

Red State or Blue State?
Written by
Neither, because this is by Billy at Eternal Images in Goole, England. I wanted to point it out as well because it includes one of the most common tattoo mistakes (made by almost all of us unfortunately) — that of a small, pre-existing tattoo interfering with a later, larger piece. Consider that seriously when you’re planning your first tattoo. Are you really so sure you won’t soon want a bigger one?

Pretty Pull
Written by
A la the Wahconah Falls Suspension, I thought this pull location chosen by the folks at 1-2 Fly Suspension in Toulouse, France (care of John Bastien) would be a nice include as well.

What makes them tick?
Written by
I can make a good guess as to what the video game portrait tattoo says about the bearer (tattoo by Darwin Enriquez at Mithostattoo in Caracas, Venezuela), and I can make a very good guess as to the interests of the bearer of the drumsticks tattoo as well (by Oreoner).
But I wouldn’t have guessed the meaning of this marshmallow tattoo by Javier at House of Pain in Santa Clara, CA… the bearer tells me, “I’m comfortable like a marshmallow.”

Kasha shows that not only will you find plenty of awesome butts in Brasil, but that you’ll occasionally find one with glowing, ethereal properties (photo by Ricardo Lage).

Now THAT’S a transscrotal!
Written by
Damn! Tony from Las Vegas (who I’ve seen a number of nice transscrotal placements from) sends in this huge transscrotal piercing (on one of his clients) — yes, he’s using a mayo jar as jewelry!

Frank Zappa Tattoo
Written by
By Tony Browning at State of the Art Tattooing in Winchester, VA on Dr.Scorpio (he’s got a few more tattoos I’ve been meaning to feature; check his page for them).
“Fact of the matter is, there is no hip world, there is no straight world. There’s a world, you see, which has people in it who believe in a variety of different things. Everybody believes in something and everybody, by virtue of the fact that they believe in something, use that something to support their own existence.”
– Frank Zappa

“Who Killed Teddy Bear?”
Written by
Such a sad title for the tattoo, and she looks so sad as well. The tattoo is by Roopiec in Poland. You can click on the picture to see the tattoo being done… I hope she’s OK.
