The Latest In Body Modification

Once you've covered every square inch of skin with ink and pierced everything that can be pierced, what's left to modify? Why, your skull of course! Introducing the See-Thru Skull Plate! Now when someone says, "Whassamatter pal, ain'tchoo got no brain?" you can proudly point to the plate glass window in your head and say, "Why yes I do!" 

Features shatter proof tempered glass, stainless steel frame and industrial grade gaskets to prevent leaks. Available at finer tattoo parlors everywhere.

This is a vector drawing, drawn all in InDesign.



 This illustration went through a lot of versions and revisions. Like always, it started out as a sketch.


 
Which then led to this drawing. I stared at it for a week or so, and decided I just didn't like it. There was just something about it that I didn't like. I think part of the problem was that he looked more like a cliched jungle tribesman than an urban body mod enthusiast.

 
So I tried again. I got rid of his unruly mop of hair and gave him a shaved head, and that seemed to help.
