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.

  • Tattooed Scarification Mosaic

    OK, I didn’t think I was going to post anything else today but this piece is just so sweet that I had to add it. It’s on tigricula and was originally a kind of crappy tattoo. Then Brian (click on his name, he loves it when you do that), and then once it was well healed, it was touched up with tattooing by The Milkmaid (both at PURE in NYC).

    It’s my personal believe that some of the high detail scarification that’s being done these days may not stand the test of time, but when you combine scarification with tattooing, you almost create an altogether new form of body art that I think we’ll see much more of in the future!

    PS. Thanks to Rebekah from Modified News for the tip!

    This is by Jim Couey in San Jose, California. No, it’s not on a dude that’s really into fisting (although I’m sure his buddies must tease him) — it’s on CRISCO, an underground hip-hop artist.

    I mean no offense, but if it was me, I’d probably have chosen a slightly higher placement. Pardon the crudeness, but I can’t help but think that sex from certain positions would just be too much like fucking a chicken… I am so, so sorry for thinking that. That said, when I realized that this was on a hot Venezuelan care of the very talented Darwin (don’t be freaked out by the wizard if you visit his IAM page) at Mithos Tattoo in Caracas, I am reconsidering my policy on chicken fucking.

    Have I mentioned before that I’m going to hell?

    SuperDirk gets helped to find the way by Aza at Dragon FX Kingsway in Edmonton, Alberta. IAM members can learn more about the Sacred Order of the Black Toe at their official forum. I am afraid I can not tell you any details because I am not a member (although you may find more pictures buried away in BME’s religious tattoos gallery).
