  • A present isn’t complete without a bow

    Leave it to Santa John give us all a great present for the holidays.  The present of course is this exquisite bow cutting.  While it may be a simple design, in the hands of John it turns into a perfectly executed scar that is just ridiculously clean.

    Check out more of John’s work in both his BME portfolio or over at Scarab Body Art in Syracuse, NY

  • Now witness the firepower of this fully scarred and branded battle station

    He’s done it again folks.  Brian has managed to blend scarification and branding together to create a brilliant replication of the Death Star from Return of the Jedi.  On top of that he’s added a Darth Vader scar to go along side it.  According to Brian this is just the beginning of an entire Scar Wars sleeve, in which the wearer will eventually incorporate tattooing to compliment the scars.

    Brian is also going to be appearing at the Philly Tattoo convention next year and has some open spots available if you’re looking to get some scar work done.

    Make sure you go and check out Brian’s BME gallery to see more scars by him.

  • Stitching up a broken heart

    We’ve seen plenty of heart shaped scarification pieces on ModBlog, but I think this is the first time we’ve seen a broken heart scar that uses sutures as part of the scarification process.  Jesse Villareal of Main Street Tattoo in Merced, CA sent in this recent scar that he did, and in the process nearly doubled the amount of photos in the suture scarification gallery.  We can easily assume the main part of the heart will be identifiable as a scar, but it’ll be interesting to see how the suture scars heal, and how they’ll look in combination with the rest of the piece.

  • Movember Mourning

    Well, this is the final Movember Monday post for the year.  It’s been a great month, and we’ve seen a lot of fantastic mustaches.  For some people the end of the month means a day to shave away that band of brilliance upon their upper lip, yet to others it becomes a point of pride, a light in the darkness, a place to grow not only an epic mustache, but a beard as well!  So while Movember is finished, Bearduary is just around the corner, so get those beards growing!

    Now to celebrate the end of the month, lets take a look at one of the finest mustaches that has been submitted in the past month.  While I don’t know the name of the gentleman pictured below, I do know that the claw scars on his shoulders were done by IAM: Dark freak from Brazil.
