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.

  • Sins of Fathers


    Following up on last week’s various spider endeavors, Tye sends in these photos of his brother’s new Carnage tattoo, done by the great Lila Way at her own True Grit Tattoos in Burlington, Ontario. (The shop also houses familiar faces Greg Garrett, formerly of Way Cool Oakville, Franklin Reeves and Tom Brazda.) As for the tattoo, well, it’s expertly done, but isn’t it just begging to have that infernal symbiote bond with your precious lifeforce? Hey, priorities.

  • Tried By Fire


    Hope you’ve been enjoying your Memorial Day, American ModBloggers. The sun is still out, so if you haven’t high-fived a military officer, downed a pitcher of margaritas or fallen asleep in a kiddie pool, there’s still time! If, however, you’ve resigned yourself to the fact that your blissful long weekend is over and it’s back to the acid mines first thing tomorrow, maybe the lovely Lesha will lift your lilting spirits. Almost everything you see there (minus the tattoo work) was done by the illustrious Steve Truitt at Stay Gold Tattoos in Albuquerque—the three forehead microdermals and star implant in her chest, at the very least.

  • The World Rocks Beneath


    I would probably lose my mind with piercings so close to my eyeballs, but these “crow’s feet” piercings seem pretty well placed and out of the range of impeding movement or vision, so hey, as Scottie Pippen would say, I take my hands off to you. But what inspires a person to get her crow’s feet pierced?

    Well, I woke up one morning and I asked my boyfriend, “What should we do today?” He replied, “Something really random,” so I suggested to get piercings done. Off we went to venture our decision to get piercings. He said I should get my crow’s feet done and he got his transverse lobe. Surprisingly, it really didn’t hurt.

  • Purple Night


    OK, now let’s see here…Eye of Ra? Check. Grapes? Check. Gorgeous dog portrait? Check. Horn? Check. Peyote? Missing. Oh, wait, there it is, in my mouth. Carry on.

    (No, seriously, I love this tattoo, even if it’s a bit of a brain-melter. Tattoo by Josh Weir.)

  • The Color of Their Eyes Matches the Color of Our Blood


    Good morning, ModBloggers! Hope the day finds you well. Let’s kick off the week with this fine ear project all the way from Kunming, Yunnan, China. I initially assumed the screws in the cartilage were some sort of custom jewelry, but, as the post-jump photo will show, those are some real screws. Probably not terribly comfortable for long-term wear, but if the structural integrity of your ear has been compromised? Can’t be too careful. Or something.
