Christian started out with a 1.6mm (14ga) conch piercing, and stretched it (DIY in Sweden, and no tissue has been cut out) slowly to 16mm (5/8″). Not an easy piercing to stretch so far!

Upper Breast Surface Piercings

PrettyHateMachine sends in this photo of the elegant surface piercings that Patrick from Ironwarrior in Cape Town, South Africa. I hope they heal well because they’re really very pretty.

“Calling your name”
Written by
Faithinpoison (check her IAM page for more formal modeling work she’s done) shows off her 14ga nipple bars and triple 14ga navel, by Nikki at Art Addictions in Brampton, ON. Seriously, every time I post a BMEgirls entry here I wonder what the best way to go about meeting someone is (don’t worry, that’s not a sideways creepy old man way of hitting on you Aridia, I’m just proving to myself that whining about it on the internet is the most ineffective way possible).

I like how this self portrait that RuinsOfDecay took to highlight her 0ga septum piercing turned out.

Gotta love nuns and their special relationship with Jesus. See the Shadark bonus gallery in BME/HARD for more in this series.

It’s just makeup 🙁
Written by
Her nice big piercings of course are real, done by Onkeltom at Tom Tom in Stockholm, Sweden, but Anna’s blue facial tattoos are of course just makeup. I love them though… it’s too bad the world isn’t more permissive… Can you imagine how beautiful an experience it would be to walk down the street and see nothing but people with a myriad of appearances and visages like this?

Don’t look down…

Alright, I don’t like leaving too unusual an entry on the very top, so let me share with you this pretty play piercing photo from Adam at Psycho City Tattoo in Lancaster, CA, done using 14ga captive bead rings (in a temporary placement).

Mirin Dajo II
Written by
I recently posted a video of Mirin Dajo doing intense skewering (he’s unique though because of the depth to which he penetrates his inner body cavity and even organs). I wanted to share some photos of a friend in Germany who also does very intense (and also largely private) body rituals. I want to mention a few things about this set of pictures before people comment, because I spent a moment debating whether it was a good idea to post this publicly rather than just inside BME/HARD:
- These pictures are quite intense. Don’t click them if you’re not OK with that.
- He’s doing fine and has done this before.
- The damage involved is in line with many surgical procedures (liposuction, procedures involving dermal elevation, etc.) and the risks are managable.
- The fact that he’s OK doesn’t mean it’s safe or easy — don’t try this at home unless you absolutely understand the issues.
- There are thousands of people who do this and while unusual, it is not at all unheard of.
- Throughout history thousands more people have done these rituals both publicly and privately for a variety of reasons.
- He’s doing this because he finds it a valuable and worthwhile experience. That’s a good enough reason for him, and it’s a good enough reason for me.

The Mote in Tattoo’s Eye
Written by
A customer of Evan‘s (Color Works in West Des Moines, IA) asked him to have the eye he had tattooed on “shine” — here comes a microdermal to the rescue! Anyway, that’s it for today (sorry), but I’ve been thinking about the ModBlog Scrapbook idea a bit more and I’d be happy to take the time to assemble it if people are interested — it would basically be a print “best of” for ModBlog since it began in August 2005.
