Dan Quirk is a graphic artist who exposes the human anatomy in a harmless and interesting way while using the human body as his pallet. Elaborately exposing life-like muscles and ligaments across an uncut pallet of human skin, artist Danny Quirk's recreation of the human body opened up reveals beauty to be more than skin deep. Painting a thin layer of the stretchy liquid over his models, his detailed work amazingly promises no pain despite the perceived exposure of their spines, jaws, arteries and other anatomical pieces. When it's finished, the designs simply peel off. (source: www.dailymail.co.uk)

My recommendations: the polish artists Sebastian and Milena Żmijewski

If you are looking for inspiration for a biomechanical / 3D tattoo I recommend you to visit this website: www.bloodyart.pl (don't worry, is translated in English). The sites belongs to Sebastian and Milena Żmijewski, two Polish brothers who run together their own business: a tattoo studio called “Bloody Art” in Gdansk, Poland. If you decide to visit Gdansk (which, by the way, is one most beautiful cities of Poland) and you want to get a really stunning tattoo you can pay them a visit.

Sebastian Żmijewski is an amazing artist with more than 20 years of experience in tattoo art. A versatile artist and capable of almost everything, his pieces of work include any type of tattoos. Sebastian favourites are portraits and photo realistic challenges and he is a god when it comes to black & grey and covers-up.

Milena Żmijewski is also an artist, with painting, drawing and graphics experience as well as make-up and interior design knowledge. She had been learning tattooing techniques from her brother since 2011 and she is an important component of his projects. Milena does some of the most detailed paintings which Sebastian carefully depicts into skin afterwards.

Below you can see several examples of Sebastian and Milena’s stunning tattoos. I've selected only a few images from their huge collection. For more images, visit the original photo-gallery at this address: http://www.bloodyart.pl/#tattoo

3D tattoos: dark-art biomechanical tattoos

When it comes to a biomechanical tattoo, the cyborg tattoos and the alien-infestations tattoos are by far the most popular choices. However, it is not necessarily the case that a biomechanical tattoo contains only robotic / cyborg components and alien-like tissues and bones. In fact, there are many other themes and elements which can be integrated in a biomechanical tattoo design: reptiles, spiders, monsters, demons, etc.

Not as widespread as the cyborg tattoos or alien-infestation tattoos, the biomechanical tattoos depicting a monster inside the body of the the tattoo's wearer is still a quite widespread choice.

Without claiming to be exhaustive, this list contains the main themes of the biomech-monsters tattoos:
- zombie infestation (zombie bites, zombie transformation, zombies eating the body from inside etc)
- the human body depicted as the monster's hiding place
- fetuses (zombie fetuses, mosnter fetuses)
- torn skin revealing a hidden monster (usually only the teeths, the claws and sometimes the eyes of the monster are visibles) eating the body from inside
- skeletons (the entire skeleton or just some parts - usually the skull and the hands) inside the body
- demons living inside the body

Biomechanical tattoos: alien infestation

Another popular choice for a biomechanical tattoo is the "alien infestation" theme. Sometimes, the mechanical components and the alien tissues can be combined in a single tattoo.

The most common themes of the alien-biomechanical tattoos are:
- an alien creature growing inside a human body, and aventually destroying the host's body (or eating the host body from the inside out)
- alien creatures living inside someone's body, coexisting peacefully with the host (like Kauto, the mutant baby from Total Recall)
- alien creatures whice are using the human body like a vehicle (those tattoos contain mechanical and robotic components along with the alien tissues)
- aliens (strange) creatures hiding inside the human body; in this case, only small parts of the alien are visible - usually weird eyes staring from the depths of the host's body, claws and tentacles that seem to spring out. etc.
- fusions between humans and aliens: usually a human being with an alien arm or leg (like in the early stages of the transformation process of the Wikus character from the "District 9" movie)
- fusions between alien tissues and cyborg components

Cyborg Tattoos photos

The cyborg tattoo (or robot tattoo) is one of the main themes of the biomechanical tattoos. The cyborg style tattoos present the internal human body as a mechanical structure, made up of a metal skeleton along with titanium tendons and various organs of the human body. Usually, the cyborg tattoos contain many other elements besides metal, such as wires, microchips and other similar compounds that could visually substitute bones, muscles and tendons.
