Over the past 6 months we’ve been following the progress of Southtownbaby’s scarification work. As a new scarification artist she’s been sharing with the community and listening to the feedback. In her latest scar, she tackles the image of Santa Muerte, the Mexican saint of death.

Today’s follow-up marks the return of the Thunder from Down Under! It’s been almost a year since we’ve gotten a follow-up from Wayde, and this one makes up for the lack of updates. This H.R. Giger inspired piece was done at Scarwars ’07 in Philadelphia.
To see how it looks 4 years later, you know what to do.
It’s safe to say that after 4 years, this scar has healed. Of course, time will still change the appearance, but as it stands right now, it’s looking good. The way the skin has healed up has given the design a lightened pigment compared to the rest of the skin, allowing it to blend in with his leg. There are a few more close-ups of the scar in Wayde’s BME Portfolio Gallery.

Today’s BMEtv video takes up back up to the Gold Coast where the BME World Tour Team met up with Anders the Piercing Guy. This video was originally set to go up on May 30th, but there were some problems with the video. Since then, they’ve been corrected, and it’s ready to go.
To check out the video, keep on reading!

Today’s other follow-up is brought to you by the letters B and D. Over the past couple of years, Brian Decker has been experimenting with combining scarification with branding. Following the initial cutting, he’ll go over parts of it with a hyfrecator, as a form of shading or accent. Below you can see how successful this technique has been. The scar/brand was done over a year ago, and the results are remarkable.
Be sure to check out Brian’s BME Portfolio Gallery to see more of his scarifications and brandings.

TGIF. The weekend is almost upon us, which means it’s time to see some scars. Now with this being the opening weekend for the final Harry Potter film (until they reboot the series in 5 years for American audiences) I figured it would only be appropriate to have two follow-up posts today. So in honor of the boy wizard with the scar, here’s today’s first follow-up.
This cutting by Lary from Larypiercing in Finland was done about 3 months ago. If you want to see how it looks today, you know what to do.
As you can see, after only 3 months the scar has started to form up really well. It’ll be interesting to see if the keloiding develops any further or if it has reached the peak of it’s growth.
