You can hardly go a week without seeing the name Efix pop up here. What can I say, the man does beautiful work and he takes the time to submit the images to BME. Yet this post isn’t about the beautiful work he does, it’s about the beautiful work he wears.

When I saw this tattoo as an avatar on the main page of IAM, I clicked it without even noticing the name. I just wanted to see this bright beautiful tattoo in a bigger picture. Then I noticed who it was on, shot him a message and asked his permission to use it. He gladly obliged and let me know his entire torso, throat and arms were  done by Jay Marceau of Quebec City Canada.

Today’s game was a little messy, and quite a bit bloody, but now it’s time to really see where all this blood is coming from.  Before we get to the results, let’s take a quick look back at today’s game.

Round one

Round two

Round three

With today’s themed game, you can pretty much assume that the full photos are going to be portraying some risky behaviours.  Consider this your warning if you have any problems with that.

And with that, time is up, keep on reading to see how you did.

This week’s game is going to be a little different than the others.  Normally the cropped image is of some form of modification and your job is to guess what it is.  Well this week, instead of trying to identify the modification, you’re going to be guessing where the blood is coming from.

Yep, you read that right.  All of today’s pictures have one thing in common, a lot of blood.  Of course the term “a lot” is subjective, but it’s safe to assume that whatever is in the images is more than just a scratch.  You won’t be getting any hints today either as the cropped photos are a lot bigger than normal.  Just remember, you’re trying to guess what body part is the source of the blood in the photo.  At the end of the day, you’ll get to see how well you did when the results are posted.

So here’s your third and final photo..

Well, this is the final Movember Monday post for the year.  It’s been a great month, and we’ve seen a lot of fantastic mustaches.  For some people the end of the month means a day to shave away that band of brilliance upon their upper lip, yet to others it becomes a point of pride, a light in the darkness, a place to grow not only an epic mustache, but a beard as well!  So while Movember is finished, Bearduary is just around the corner, so get those beards growing!

Now to celebrate the end of the month, lets take a look at one of the finest mustaches that has been submitted in the past month.  While I don’t know the name of the gentleman pictured below, I do know that the claw scars on his shoulders were done by IAM: Dark freak from Brazil.

With all this talk of Movember, it’s sometimes easy to forget those among us who don’t just grow in a mustache in November.  Take KingFrankWaits for example, he’s rocking an expertly curled ’stache that blends in well with his beard.  I’m guessing that the purplish mark around his nostril piercing means he just had it done shortly before this photo was taken.

He also looks like a genuinely happy guy, which is always nice to see.  And given how many e-mails I got this month asking for some bearded boys, I’m pretty sure there will be some other happy people when they see this photo.

A while back I featured my old friend Jared’s company onetribe on here. Readers seemed to appreciate an in depth look into one of the many organic jewelry companies. So when the, ever so likable, Cyrus showed up in my shop carrying a selection of gorgeous organic jewlery from Maya, I told him to tell his boss I’d like to do a feature on her company. Due to prior commitments on both our parts, it took a while to get it together, but I am pleased to have it ready now.

For many more images and a brief interview, keep on keeping on.

With every mustache there is the chance for a beard.  ICollectTheDead shows us just how much that is true.  Looking very dashing (and a little psychotic) in his suit, he’s proving that one can have multiple labret piercings and a beard without the two conflicting.

The madness isn’t over yet.  Coming up later today, my choices for best mustache and beard combo, as well as best overall mustache for the month.

There’s only a few days left to celebrate Movember, so with this last Monday in the month, we’re going to take a look at some of the best mustaches that have been submitted over the past month.

What better way to kick off a celebration than with a cake, or at least BrainDamaged’s take on a cake.

Sporting an excellent Van Dyke, BrainDamaged is also taking part in a pretty challenging play piercing session.  The candles, when lit,provide an element of danger that might not be obvious at first glance.  If he were to relax his arms at any time the flames from the individual candles could merge, potentially causing a strong enough heat source to do some real damage.  You can see it happening on his right arm with the two candles that are placed really close together.

Visually it looks great, and is a fantastic way to kick off the last Movember Monday of the month.
