So ModBlog’s “Skullboy” as he’s come to be known out on the weeb, has tribute videos out about him on YouTube! I thought that was pretty cool, and just goes to show you how fascinated people are by what he’s done (note: the video’s best part is near the end, so don’t give up).

And a second video as well:

  11. I was a bit skeptical about how well she was going to have imitated his tattoo, but it actually turned out to be a really good job.

    cuntcumber on December 11th, 2006 at 6:33 pm
  12. The tattoo is copied brilliantly =D
    I love the part when the teeth appear in one sweep.

    Zobot on December 11th, 2006 at 6:53 pm
  13. yeah was real well done, great tunes and great idea :)

    Wilburt on December 11th, 2006 at 7:08 pm
  14. I think Skull Boy’s started summat ‘ere.

    And may I say this girl is a mighty brilliant make up artist!!

    Hannah on December 11th, 2006 at 7:19 pm
  15. :D

    jessica on December 11th, 2006 at 7:20 pm
  16. that’s so awesome!

    broken_wings on December 11th, 2006 at 7:25 pm
  17. hats off to her, and all well-done facial tattoos.

    thecatdoesdrugs on December 11th, 2006 at 7:47 pm
  18. that rocks

    kivaka on December 11th, 2006 at 7:59 pm
  19. The song is from a Beck remix album (duh). From what I have its called “Hell Yes Remix EP. Dunno if Shannon minds links but info can be found here: http://www.discogs.com/release/403691
    Hope that helps everyone who is going to ask and everyone who asked!

    Ps. Thanks for posting that video, it was awesome!

    Jay on December 11th, 2006 at 8:11 pm
  20. The backwards effect makes it look, to me, like she’s removing her skin face to reveal the skull face beneath, especially at the “teeth sweep.” Very cool.

    Nora Rocket on December 11th, 2006 at 8:22 pm
  21. It took me until about the last few seconds to realize that it was actually backwards. At first I thought it had really, really good special effects.

    CJ on December 11th, 2006 at 9:17 pm
  22. hahahahaha. skull boy definitely has a posse

    natty on December 11th, 2006 at 9:26 pm
  23. That’s paperlilies, i watch all her youtube videos :) she’s great.
    but i did school her that that’s not “skullboy”, and the photos can be found on modblog. i did some pimpin!

    Emily on December 11th, 2006 at 9:32 pm
  24. She got the tattoo pretty spot on. Backwards effect was awesome.

    Lisa on December 11th, 2006 at 10:24 pm
  25. same as 21 here. i thought something was fishy about it but wasn’t sure. sooo cool.

    zusanna on December 11th, 2006 at 10:49 pm
  26. haha that was awesome! at first i was thinking, those paper towels are dirty and she’s just getting more stuff on her face!
    that was great
    :D

    xfancy on December 12th, 2006 at 12:04 am
  27. Took me until about the middle to realize it had to be backwards video, too.

    The makeup job is excellent though, she gets it looking just right!

    akibare on December 12th, 2006 at 1:11 am
  28. Skull Boy is GOD!!!

    Max Argento on December 12th, 2006 at 2:26 am
  29. shes REALLY good at doing that herself and making it look GOOD

    Robyn on December 12th, 2006 at 2:44 am
  30. man i prefer the second video’s capacity to showcase her abilities, to the first video’s sheer disturbing nature!

    damn!

    skullboy marches on!

    elixir on December 12th, 2006 at 3:20 am
  31. Wow, anyone who’s ever put on makeup can appreciate the complexities of this girls job. Whew, well done!

    Amelia on December 12th, 2006 at 4:08 am
  32. I’m in love.

    bluey on December 12th, 2006 at 4:14 am
  33. I am crazy jealous of her skillz
    And it also took me to pretty much the very end to figure out the first video >.

    jenny on December 12th, 2006 at 5:32 am
  34. that second video leaves me fucking speechless.

    carolyn on December 12th, 2006 at 9:26 am
  35. Oh she’s amazing with her makeup. I can’t stop watching the vidoes, it’s just amazing how well she duplicates the tattoo.

    miseriacanticle on December 12th, 2006 at 12:00 pm
  36. How rad! haha super duper.

    Penny on December 12th, 2006 at 12:11 pm
  37. MAY BE SKULLBOY SHOULD HAVE ASKED HER TO DO HIS FACE, SHE DID A BETTER JOB. I THINK SHE IS WICKED FUNNY AND AWAESOME IN HER MAKE UP SKILLS

    charlie on December 12th, 2006 at 1:12 pm
  38. I think someone left the italics open…

    I’ll be honest, I thought Skullboy was cool. But she scares me a little.

    Leroy on December 12th, 2006 at 2:11 pm
  39. that is sick, obviously she has talent.

    UFOT on December 12th, 2006 at 6:05 pm
  40. Wow, that’s cool as hell! What made her decided to do this I wonder?
    (Just out of interest, does she have any mody bods?)

    me on December 12th, 2006 at 6:12 pm
  41. And how is that interview coming along Shannon???

    Randy on December 12th, 2006 at 9:37 pm
  42. She is such a talented artist. I looked at some more of her stuff… stunning work.

    I feel so bad for all the terrible comments that “skull boy” recieved in his debut…

    People are so mean…

    L1ZZARD on December 12th, 2006 at 11:23 pm
  43. ummm…

    albeans on December 13th, 2006 at 2:41 am
  44. that’s pretty damn cool. I usually don’t watch the videos posted on here.

    albeans on December 13th, 2006 at 2:42 am
  45. that’s fantastic!
    she did that really well.

    also, i just downloaded the beck remix ^_^

    i like the 2nd song too i wish i knew what it was.

    Sarah on December 13th, 2006 at 3:44 am
  46. haha, those were awesome.

    am i the only one who thinks she’s really cute when she smiles?

    Sunday on December 13th, 2006 at 3:56 am
  47. She is such an excellent artist. I couldn’t figure out how she did the first video because she kept using clean rags. Watching the second video was key.

    Kristen lambert on December 13th, 2006 at 6:57 am
  48. She is extremely talented, especially as it seemed she did the whole thing immediately with no mistakes.

    Have just checked out the Skullboy thread with 600 responses, some of them are just plain baffling.

    “He needs Jesus in his life”.

    WTF….

    Giles Wallwork on December 13th, 2006 at 12:15 pm
  49. Fantastic! After the comments to the original post got so nasty and mean-spirited, it’s refreshing to see these videos. (Not to mention, I totally concur with everyone above who complimented her makeup skills!)

    AshleyM on December 13th, 2006 at 4:23 pm
  50. wow!!! i do something quite similar on a friday night before goin to town lol xxx

    daniella on January 2nd, 2007 at 11:51 am
