What you see here is a Ferrari F430 that has been covered in cowhide and then tattooed by French artist Phillipe Pasqua.
It sounds ridiculous, but the end result is rather impressive, so I’m sure this isn’t the last time we see a leather covered supercar prowling the streets.

Auto Ink by Chris Eckert is “a three axis numerically controlled sculpture. Once the main switch is triggered, the operator is assigned a religion and it’s corresponding symbol is tattooed onto the person’s arm. The operator does not have control over the assigned symbol. It is assigned either randomly or through divine intervention, depending on your personal beliefs.”

Chris Piascik is a master of the doodle and a lover of the Sharpie. (Just check out his arm.) With an almost meditative ease he can turn a blank canvas into a creature-filled work of art, and the process becomes even more magical when sped up and put to music. Enjoy:

Scott Campbell takes stacks of one-dollar bills and then laser etches designs into them, and beside the fact that he may at some point get arrested for his work, it’s actually rather awesome.
Be sure to visit his site for more of his tattoo inspired art.
