Some Like It Hot!



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.

A Black And Grey pinup-fest!

I got a great email from Ruben, who has a nice collection of pinup tattoos done by some top-class artists.

This beautiful Pearl Frush lady was done by Steve Soto from Good Fellas Tattoo Shop, Orange, CA.


The Gil Elvgren Piece above was done by Tom Clarke at Ace's High in Fullerton, CA.


Also by Tom Clarke, the Marilyn Monroe portrait above.


And this is how they tie together! Some wicked ink there, thanks!

*Yes, I've seen the extras of Scary Movie 3. What of it?
