blackfoot Ponn Miistis  Brian Decker

From Mr. Decker:
I don’t remember if I posted about this last year, but here is some scar work I did on a young, Native American girl. In her Blackfoot tribe it is customary to have a line scarred around their arm for each year they’re alive. It is known aswhich literally translates to “the rings of a tree”. When they run out of room on one arm they move to the other, then the legs, but apparently their average life expectancy is only 43.

Anyhow, her parents are more modernized now and didn’t want her having this done while she was growing up. She was intrigued by her grandfather’s rings, which covered his arms and legs, so decided to come to me from Montana to catch up. Last year I worked on her upper arm and finished it up this time. She’s 24 now.

deckeroctopus More cephalopods  Brian Decker

It would seem that the noble octopus has become a very popular design for scarification pieces. Clicking the OCTOPUS tag should bring up many’a fine cephalopod. This piece drawn by the client and cut by previous tentacle technician Brian Decker, now proudly joins the ranks.

Will the octopus explosion continue? Only time will tell!

Rabbit fish?
Very cute. Not really sure what to make of this piece by NYC’s Brian Decker, only that I like it.
We have more coming from Mr. Decker today, as well as work by John Joyce. It’s a scarification overload!

I’ve posted skull cuttings by Efix before; I can’t remember how many. Click the SKULL tag to find out. Instead of insightful comments, I’ll leave you with the lyrics to SKULLS by the Misfits. Back before Glenn sucked. icon biggrin Skull  Efix Roy

The corpses all hang headless and limp
Bodies with no surprises
And the blood drains down like devil’s rain
We’ll bathe tonight
