A simple message, executed nicely. What a great way to round out a Friday afternoon.

Fallout: NYC
Written by
While I’m sure some of you might be expecting a video game related post with that headline, the fallout I’m referring to is happening on ChrisB‘s arm.
As Chris’ branding heals, the ink that was branded over will fall out, leaving a nice negative space flower on his arm. As many of you with brandings know, they hurt, a lot. So who was it that got to torture Chris? None other than Brian Decker. Which of course brings us back to the title, as Brian and Chris both work and live in New York City. You can see more of Brian’s work in his BME portfolio gallery.

Guess What’s for dinner?
Written by
Today’s guess what is a first for me. I didn’t have to crop or blur anything in the first photo. Of course that doesn’t really help you with anything.
So, with a bottle of nice chianti, and a side of fava beans, what do you think is the main course?
And no, that isn’t someone’s liver. It is part of someone’s body though. The question is, what part?
Think you know? Keep on reading to see if you’re right.
Well, I’m sure that quite a few of you guessed genitals, and well, of course you’re correct. Before we get to the big reveal, let’s take a quick look at how things were before they ended up on the plate.
Back in December I posted a guess what featuring a piercing that I named an anglerfish, simply because everyone I talked to couldn’t think of any other name for it. While the piercing was unique, a lot of people were more interested in all of the other modifications that they could see.
The anglerfish is the large piercing that comes up through a urethral reroute and out mid-shaft into a full subincision. On top of that we have a number of other piercings, plus what appears to be an empty split scrotum.
Which brings us back to today’s first photo, which is a plate full of flesh. Here’s how he looks today.
And there you have it. The remains of a fresh nullification. For BME Hard subscribers, there are a lot more photos in the male nullo gallery. I’ll also be keeping an eye out for any future updates from this gentleman and I’ll be sure to post a follow-up when that happens. He’s going through a really interesting journey, and we’re all lucky to be able to come along for the ride.

The Friday Follow-up
Written by
Well, it is Friday, which means it’s time for this week’s scarification follow-up. Today’s scar is unique in that it was the artist’s first scarification piece ever (that wasn’t done on herself). The artist of course is none other than Hooklife and IAM’s own SouthTownBaby. So for Misty’s first scarification piece she cut an anchor into her client.
We’ve seen other scars by Misty, and for someone who is still new to the art, she can nail circles like a pro. Oh, and the rest of it is pretty awesome too. Let’s see how it looks a couple of months into healing.
It looks like it’s coming along just fine. You can check out more of Misty’s work in her BME Portfolio Gallery.
Also, to all those scarification artists, and those of you with scars, remember to keep sending in those fresh and healed photos to the gallery. Scarification follow-ups are the posts that I get the most request for in a given week but I can’t do them without your photos. So log in to your free account with BME, and start uploading those photos.

The world needs more bouncy castles
Written by
Seriously. Life would be so much better if every day we could spend 15 minutes bouncing around in one. Ball pits are an acceptable alternative, but there’s something to be said for bouncing around like an idiot in a castle. If you support the bouncy castle initiative, then you should be attending BMEFest 2011. Oh sure, there’s a pool, some goats, baby ducks, slip’n’slides, bonfires, bbq, suspensions, campsites and more, but what matters most is the bouncy castles. Alright, so spending a weekend in Virginia with some awesome people is probably a better reason to come down. So get yourself over to the event page, sign up (if you have a problem signing up, try a different browser), and I’ll be seeing you next weekend (July 2nd-4th)!
