Blackwork Turtleneck

By Shannon • May 7th, 2008 • Category: ModBlog

I’m really liking Trystan’s new blackwork neck tattoo with gray flowers, done pretty quickly over about two and a half hours by Paul Wren at Th-inker Tattoo in Melbourne, Florida.

Niknak recently had her already extensive work by Dan DiMattia of Calypso Tattoo in Liege, Belgium. This latest session is about ten hours of work, and you can see lots more pictures on her IAM page.

Eyebending Tribal Suit

By Shannon • Apr 24th, 2008 • Category: ModBlog

This tattoo is nuts! If you look at just one small section of it, it’s just boring neotribal that’s been done a zillion times, but as a full body suit, it’s pretty wild looking! It looks like a fabric print I think… (I’ve seen closeup photos by the way, so it’s definitely real if you’re suspicious).

Paddling

In order to get you nice and relaxed for the extremely depraved tattoo I am about to post, a nice photo of some tribal blackwork done at 21st Century Body Art in York, UK.

My Tattoo Hates Your Tattoo

By Shannon • Feb 26th, 2008 • Category: ModBlog

Dustin says, “Circle-slash tribal club… I wear this badge proudly.”  Tattoo by Alie at The Shaman’s Den in Binghamton, NY, who I suspect has done an awful lot more of these tattoos, but without the circle-slash.

Speaking of nice blackwork

By Shannon • Feb 14th, 2008 • Category: ModBlog

People said they liked Morgan’s tattoos that were featured yesterday, so I wanted to post another half-sleeve of blackwork that I quite like, this one on Theo by Dave at Bunker Tattoo in Breda, The Netherlands.
