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 love getting photos of tattooed people. I prefer them to be good tattoos, but honestly, almost without exception I think tattoos, good or bad, make a person look better. Try and think about the people below without the tattoos, and while I’m sure they’d still look good, there’d be something important missing. When I was a little kid, I drew on myself — I’ve never liked the appearance of plainskin.

    Credits, left to right: 1. Tribal by Mike at Premiere in Brooklyn, and ankh by Ink Link in Charlotte, NC, 2. Kelly’s very nice carnation tattoo by Jay at Addictive in London, Ontario, and 3. Ava‘s wonderful work by Yann at Your meat is mine in Paris, France.

    Most of the pictures on BME of piercings are relatively documentary in nature — they’re shots of the piercing, rather than the person bearing it. But still, every once in a while folks send me photos that are more portraits of them than portraits of their body modifications. Here’s a few recent examples:

    From left to right, here are the credits: 1. “Sensual Sorcery’s” piercings by Nick at Tribal Urge in Southsea, 2. Adry in Hungary’s navel piercing, 3. “Acid Angel” from Poland’s navel piercing, and 4. “Super Kug” in Germany also has a navel piercing.

    Tina Maria just joined IAM so I thought it might be a good time to mention her amateur site babeink.com. Check her out either there or on BME (the first link). You can never have enough tattooed and pierced pinups!

    Here’s a kitty make-up scene by Master Liam and Suicide Kitty for sending in this series of photos from a performance they put on (more will be on BME soon) of what’s kind of a mix between Cats (The Musical), Chinese Medicine, and BME culture…
