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.

    Here’s what Jesse Smith had to say about this creation:

    “He was lead to believe that he was helping. Unfortunately his eagerness to help will cost him his life.” This tattoo illustrates a day in the life of one of my soccer buddies who is a master chef at the infamous Shafer Court. It took me about 15 hours to complete.

    I love how he’s captured three different emotions with each of the characters.  The rabbit’s stern look of determination is countered by the manic glee of the chef approaching from behind.  Of course, who can forget the poor carrot, he knows he’s done for.  The question now is, will it be the rabbit or the chef who finishes him off.

    Jesse Smith from Loose Screw Tattoo has a real knack for creating tattoos that tell a story.  It helps that his personal style of art is one of Saturday morning cartoons on drugs.  This one in particular is the story of Jax, who was in such a hurry to get home, he didn’t notice when his wagon broke loose.

    His original works are a great addition to the Comic and Cartoon Tattoo Gallery and we hope to see more from him in the future.

    In what can only be taken as an advisory tale to non-vegans, Jesse from Loose Screw Tattoo has created a piece entitled “Vengeful Vegans”.  Jesse’s cartoonish style really works well with the subject matter here.

    They’re also pink and blue.

    According to Cecer this isn’t the finished tattoo, but it’s close enough to being completed that she wanted to share.  At first glance I thought they were the unicorns from Charlie the Unicorn, but the lack of horns squashed that idea.

    Bartosz (Broda) Zieliński from The Old Barber Shop in Copenhagen, Denmark is the artist.

    I have no idea if that little guy is from anything and I don’t care.  This is just so ridiculously cute.

    I’m not sure if these are on the same person, but they were both sent in by Cathysue who has submitted a lot of cool images to the New Skool Tattoo Gallery.  I’d like to think that these little guys belong together as they both resemble voodoo dolls, plus the top hat on the red one makes me think of Baron Samedi, and the blue one is clearly a zombie.  Granted it’s not a voodoo related zombie, but the association is there.

    How freaking cute is this?!

    Sagie from Walk the Line Tattoo Parlour in Sweden created this adorable little owl.  And for the record, that was a manly “squeee”.

    “Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Deceptions”

    I really want to get excited about a new Transformers movie, yet I know that it’ll just be a series of “BAYSPLOSIONS” with Shia shouting “nonononono” for 2 hours.  Thankfully artists like Keegan Lam are out there to remind us of the vastly superior animated series that kicked off a generation of children who at some point believed that cars could transform into giant robots.

    That’s child’s play compared to a T-rex with chainsaws for hands!

    Vroom indeed.

    Thunder..  Thunder..  Thunder..  ThunderCats HOOOO!!!!!

    To call ThundaKat79 a fan of the ThunderCats is a bit of an understatement.  With both her chest and back dedicated to the heroes of Third Earth, its safe to say that she loved one Saturday morning cartoon more than the others.  Just a quick note, her chest isn’t complete yet, so hopefully we’ll get a look at it again when it is finished.
