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.

    Hello there, ModBloggers! On the off-chance you’re not outside enjoy this lovely weather, well, here’s the chilling, steely visage of Neil Patrick Harris to scare you off your computer. Just look at him! Those eyes are a window to a soul darker than midnight.

  • Your New Monday Night Plans


    All the pertinent info is up there, young chappies. If you’re a fan of (1) tattoos and/or (2) awesome things, this is one hell of a get-there.

  • The Only Difference is the Distance


    Ahoy-hoy, ModBloggers! Hope your Saturday is treating you well. I’m just in and out at the moment, but I wanted to quickly share this gorgeous portrait of Dave‘s. It’s not of anyone in particular, but, as he explains:

    I, like so many of our community members, have been totally fascinated with tribal cultures and their ideas of body art and beauty. In all simplicity this tattoo is my way of paying homage and showing people what body modification means to me and showing where my roots in this industry lay.

    From a technical standpoint, I’m very curious to see how the huge amount of white holds up in the long term. I’ve got high hopes, though—I really love the look of this piece.

    Enjoy your day, folks, and go on, gimme some fresh new eyes.

  • This Week in BME


    New rule: When you get an A Christmas Story tattoo, slightly re-imagined as an old-school piece (with a flash-y banner, at least), you get to be on ModBlog. Doesn’t matter what season it is, not even a little. And if you disagree? Take it up with Ralphie there, who has been instructed to fire at will.

    (Tattoo by Jason Gone, who’s on the road and currently in Cincinnati, Ohio.)

    And that, my lovely friends, is how this week ends. How did we spend our time together?

    I’ll have whatever she’s having.

    Hey, a pretty pierced corset done up as formal-wear! Good stuff.

    We made fun of a stupid fake trend.

    All cephalopods, all the time, forever, amen.

    Surprise! It’s not a dick.

    And here is a corset that would probably be frowned on as formal-wear.

    High-fives all around.

    As per usual, we’ll be around here and there over the weekend, but Monday morning is when we really gas up the jet and get this thing going again. Until then, have fun out there, stay safe and, of course, thank you for your continued support of BME.

  • It’s Running You With Red


    Hey, aw, this is sweet, right? Neither of these folks, Nadine (more) or Alex (more), are strangers to this corner of the Internet’s Wild West, but Nadine sent in these shots of the happy pair sporting a damn ocean’s worth of ink by our old friend Marc (with photos by Marc as well), and you know what? They were too damn cute to pass up. Everyone understands, right? Right. After the jump, some sound advice, in the form of a tattoo, etc.
