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 don’t have an IAM link for Philip (someone post one if there is one please; photo care of ShonCuts). I really like the subtlety and “gentleness” (is that the right word? it’s the vibe I get) of these facial tattoos and cuts on him.

  • 100% Wood?

    I assume those are supposed to be sigs, but the first person I showed it to thought it might be a Tetris tattoo. Either way, I probably would avoid getting anything that looked like SS marks on public skin, let alone writing “100% wood” on my head. But maybe I don’t have a sense of humor over being a blockhead (which was my secondary explanation for this tattoo by Aminda).

  • Black and White Ear Lines

    So there are so many groups out there these days with various secret and non-secret sigils and various marks tattooed all over them. I don’t really know what this one means, or if it even is one, but here’s tan0k‘s ear lines done by Roman at Angel in Moscow, Russia.

    That’s his username, not an insult! Facial tattoos by Andy Barela at American Graffiti in Las Cruces, NM.

  • ModBlog culture influencing YouTube culture?

    So ModBlog’s “Skullboy” as he’s come to be known out on the weeb, has tribute videos out about him on YouTube! I thought that was pretty cool, and just goes to show you how fascinated people are by what he’s done (note: the video’s best part is near the end, so don’t give up).

    And a second video as well:

  • Healed Forehead Implants

    I like Enrikay‘s forehead implants — they’re both very subtle and very striking at the same time. These were done using silicone half domes by Tony in Las Vegas.

    This guy is one of Joseph‘s customers at Visual Orgasm in Singapore (tattooed by Joseph’s apprentice). Judging by what I see below the collar, he’s a big fan of flowers, and has made the decision to move on to tattooing his face as well.

  • Om Crownpiece

    Moving into a less disturbing style of facial tattoo, I like this photo of Metalheart at Amacola Falls a lot and have always liked his crownpiece a lot (and it goes nicely in this setting I think).
