Metal Tattoos

I wish I knew what this was, I really do. It looks like a totem pole of demons? With some kind of weird scarred-out blob in the middle. Is it a tribal-mutant batman logo? AND DO YOU SEE THE SCRATCHED UP FETUS ON HIS ELBOW? I mean really, how could you miss that? I don't even know what the stuff on his forearm is. If anyone can help decipher this, please let me know! I was staring at this guy for ages trying to figure it out.



I wish I knew what was on his back, too. You can see a bit of it poking out. I bet it's incredible.

More stick-n-poke radness

Do you remember the post I did about the young man with the butterflies on his feet and the ridiculous home tattoos? Well, he showed me some photos of his friend's tattoos. And boy, are they ridiculous!

First up- booyah! arm!

This poor person has "booyah!" on their arm not once, but at least SEVEN TIMES! I can also see a pterodactyl, a ghost, and "USA GOES UNDEFEATED".


I wish I knew the story behind this one. "Saves Latin"??? ... maybe I don't really want to know.


And this. What is this? An alien-insect with patriotic wings riding a scooter with hello kitty with a mustache in the back? WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

Seriously, the more I see tattoos like this, the more I shake my head and start to wonder if they are really works of genius instead of being the worst tattoos in the world.

Some Like It Hot tattoo

This next tattoo could be the best reader submission I've ever recieved. Veronica's wonderful Marilyn Monroe portrait was done by Stefano Alcantara of Last Rites, NY. Whoah. It puts Megan Fox's arm into context, for sure.

White Buffalo Tattoo

I dreamed of the design of my White Buffalo Tattoo New Beginnings tattoo when I was about fifteen years old. I finally made it a reality. Dream catchers only hold the bad dreams. Artist Don Minotti,343 Griswold St. Warren Ohio (330)367-7034

From the Webmaster:
That is a fine tribute to the Native American culture, Mark. Tattoos of buffalo by themselves are cool, but nowhere near as striking as the design that you have put together. You will probably get a lot of compliments (or "pats on the back"?) on this tattoo. Thanks for sharing.

Poles Apart Tatto

A nice reader submission from Jakub from Poland.

Lady Luck

Nice reader submission from Erin, done by Tiffany at Planet Ink Studios in Ottawa,Ontario Canada.

Full Tattoos

You know the old saying, folks: It’s all fun and games until someone gets hit in the face with a water balloon thrown by Frankie Delgado. We actually laughed out loud when that happened — it was a welcome relief from the rest of the episode, which was, to quote the wordsmith Kristin Cavallari, "somewhat vanilla." Even little Enzo couldn’t keep our interest, though we’ve decided that he’s actually a grown-up in a child’s body, à la Gary Coleman. Oh yeah, and we still think he’s a murderer.

We open with Kristin and Stacie the Bartender at a sex shop, browsing for Brody’s 26th-birthday gift. They choose a collar, “’cause he’s so whipped on Jayde,” says Kristin. Shouldn’t it be whipped “by,” not “on?” Regardless, they buy it, after horsing around in the store and insulting Brody’s sex skills. You know this is on national television, Kristin, right? Oh, we forgot, the bitch is back, blah, blah.

So let’s get into the Kristin–Justin Bobby story line, shall we? Not to get too deep, but it’s actually interestingly meta that she’s seen him in a relationship with Audrina on TV, and is using that knowledge to inform her own interactions with him. We’re going to ponder that more, but first we’re taking a break to get ITALY tattooed across our chest, to match Justin Bobby's stunning new FRANCE tattoo, plastered across his thigh … and we’re back, and it’s awesome. Kristin and JB flirt on the beach, hosing each other off sexily (ew), and she invites him to Brody’s party (isn’t he good friends with Brody? Why doesn’t he know about the party already?), he accepts, and then there’s a close-up of Kristin’s Missoni-clad butt. TMI, MTV. So clearly, since this is Justin Bobby we’re dealing with, he doesn’t show to the party. “Audrina put up with Justin’s shit, but I’m not going to put up with it,” Kristin announces the following day. Are we supposed to applaud Kristin for being an empowered woman? Or feel sad for her because we know her resolve won’t last? Either way, we’re more interested in the fact that Stacie appears to be drinking a Cosmopolitan at 9 a.m. in the morning. She is a bartender, we suppose.

On to the surprise shindig, which, in addition to water balloons, includes a jumping castle and inflatable waterslide. Were it not for the frolicking Playboy Bunnies, we’d have mistaken this party for a very spoiled 9-year-old’s party. Brody appears in all his slimy glory, changing one printed tee for another, and we finally understand his love for Jayde — take a look at his mom, Linda! She’s the grown-up version of a washed-up nudie model, complete with saggy implants and hair that’s practically breaking off from 40 years of bad highlights. Linda loves Kristin, for whatever reason, and Jayde is justifiably annoyed by this. When Kristin invites everyone to her house for an after-party, Jayde refuses to go, and Brody ditches her. We’re no fan of Jayde’s, but in this case, we feel for the tyrant. She just threw her boyfriend a party, and instead of staying to have dinner with her, he rushes off to his ex-girlfriend’s house? Not cool. As Brody wisely puts it, “Love is a horrible, horrible thing when it goes wrong. This is the kind thing that ends a relationship.”

We guess we have to talk about Spencer and Heidi for a second, but only a second, okay? Spencer tells Charlie he doesn’t want kids (he’s going to get his tubes tied … heh), just as little Enzo runs up to bother them. Watch out, Enzo, Charlie kind of looks like a child molester with that mustache. Heidi and Spence go to dinner. “Is this a marriage or a dictatorship?” Spencer asks her. These people suck.

And finally, Audrina goes on a date with Justin’s friend Derek, who, by the looks of it, is roughly 43 years old. We think she’s wearing the white, see-through shirt that Justin bought her last year. Are we right? If so, that’s just creepy.

my tattoo

To my tattoo that is. I went to get the cross I had done last year finished and touched up today, and had also mentioned wanting to add some wings behind the cross. What was drawn when I got there looked great to me, so I did it. They don’t hurt nearly as much the second time around.

JOKER TATTOO ART and Halloween Costume

A Bat-Blog Reader named Nick sent us this really nice picture of his new JOKER TATTOO. Of course it's the amazing "Heath Ledger" version from the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight. ( Man, people really really love that character! I have to admit, he does deserve the Oscar™ ). You might have remembered it from awhile back but now he has got some color work to it & it turned out really good. The tattoo artist ( sorry, I don't have his name at this time ) did a really great job! I like how "expressionistic" it is. Nick also dressed-up as The Joker for Halloween recently & sent us the 2 cool pics you see here. Nick, thank you for sending this material, I appreciate that. The finished tattoo looks great, the costume looks well-made, & the make-up is awesome! Thanks again.
