This “HADES” chest cautery pen scarification is being done by Scott at Big D’s Skin City Tattooing in Dormont, PA, who does not appreciate whimpering or whining.

Another tattoo by Brendan on the road tattooing on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia, here’s Tracey’s “tacklefly”… She’s the mother of one of his regular customers, and asked him for a butterfly made of dicks, so he drew it up for her and they had lots of fun tattooing it onto her.

You know, I think I actually have an entire gallery dedicated to “camel toe” tattoos (seriously), but this is the first “moose knuckle” tattoo I’ve seen (don’t know what that is?). This was done by Johannes at Chronic Tattoo in San Diego, California…

Gavin at Rubery Tattoo Studio in Birmingham, UK did this funny Lego Village People tattoo — “I just wanted something different and I love Lego…”

So iam:writingonthewalls thinks he’s the coolest (Evan agrees) with his 11mm tongue piercing and his “Blue Bella” drink while partying in Bali, Indonesia… My friend Oleg from Russia (check out his BME/HARD gallery for loads more), begs to differ, and invites them both over for a drink — his photo is after the break.

I like the take that Sinstress and her partner got on the matching/wedding-ring type tattoo theme — a heart padlock, and, instead of the old cliché of a key, a bolt cutter. Wondering why a bolt cutter? Well, Sintress had actually gotten her half of the tattoo — the lock — a year earlier with someone else, and that person has the key tattoo!

Owella writes of her two “Bills” caricatures by Saint Kele Idol at Aerochild Tattoos in Birmingham, Alabama,
People are gonna ask why… Mostly because they make me laugh.
Bill Cosby is the reason I understand the concept of time: around age three or four, on a car trip, I asked how much longer until we arrived to our destination. My mother told me it would be 30 minutes. I had no idea how long 30 minutes was, or what it felt like, so I asked her how long 30 minutes was. She responded: “one Cosby Show”, as it’s the show I watched the most as a child. The memories surrounding Mr. Cosby are part of a long list. All in all, his face makes me smile.
Bill Murray… he ended up being my all-time celebrity crush. He makes me laugh, he’s totally cute, and again, I’ve got tons of memories that he’s a part of. It just seemed right. And yes, they are going to remain in line-drawing form. No shading. That would look a tad too serious, I think!
Check out her amazing owl skeleton tattoo as well (which is still healing in this picture)… Even if you’re not into the tattoo above, I’m sure you’ll like that one, done by the same tattooist, but based on art by Chris Buzelli.

Erin in Detroit (not Cere) says,
I did this tattoo on a friend for his school project. It was a story on why not to let a person that does not know how to tattoo do any work on you. I’m not an artist — obviously — but it’s a good long lasting laugh.

So way back in the early days of ModBlog I posted the unicorn with a hard-on. Then I posted the so-called “white power” unicorn, and then the unicorn shitting a rainbow. Jake saw this and wrote in,
“I figured I’d send this one along your way. I had this created for the logo of my band Children of the Unicorn and it was so fucking fly that I needed to get it on my arm, and then this shot ended up as our album cover… funny how it works sometimes. Enjoy!”

When I originally posted Eric’s tongue web, people thought it was fake. It’s definitely real, although he’s downsized it to a “mere” 00ga… and it’s still as useless as ever! As you can see, he’s quite desperate to justify it, hahaha…

Jason’s unicorn shitting a rainbow tattoo is an excellent follow-up to the white-power unicorn.

With all due apologies, I got a chuckle out of this “caught in the act” photo of Archetype’s pulling (just after the hooks came out)… The look on John’s face is priceless!

Kevin (owner of the ass-swipe tattoo) is already drunk I think? Alouicious of Shaman’s Den in Binghamton, NY did another goofy piece on him with this “shamcock” tattoo below his navel.
Did I mention that the entry a few below this one contains some very intelligent discussion of tattoo removal and tattoo cover-up options? :P

Greg tells me that he and his presumably drunk friends (or Scott at least) at Akron Ink are shooting to do an entire calendar. So far only “Mr. September” is taken… Want to be next? The price is right!

PS. I’m not really posting today.

So Andy went on a trip to Turkey, and got these “tribal sandals” tattooed on while in Marmaris. As he explains, it “saves buying shoes in the summer!”
My explanation for his tattoo?
Turkey has great hashish and it seemed very funny at the time.

Has no one ever told Freakboy that if it comes out of your nose, you’re not supposed to eat it?

Alouicious, who did this tattoo at Shaman’s Den in Binghamton, NY, says, “I can’t believe how many girls swiped their cards in the slot… and gave Kevin their phone numbers!”
If the number is anything higher than “zero”, I can’t believe it either!
