Those of you who have followed Gearfuse long enough know that I’m in the process of designing myself a geeky tattoo sleeve. I’ve already got Jedi Mario and a set of Mario Stars running up my arm, but I’ve been looking for the perfect addition. This Stormtrooper Sugar Skull tat might just be my next tattoo.

Implanted under the skin are braille-shaped spheres which allow the blind braille reader to read the words of your tat. I have no idea what the pictured braille tattoo says, but I’d love to know.

But what about combining piercings and tattoos to create one overall body mod art piece? Your body is your canvas, indeed. This awesome body mod was accomplished using metal pieces which attach to the skin via piercings. The tribal style ink underneath adds... Continue reading
