We’ve all made regrettable choices, spoken regrettable things, and done things we’re not proud of in the past.
However, I’m prepared to bet that very few of us have regrets as big and obvious as those of Australian body-fascination enthusiast Ethan “ModBoy” Bramble, who has more than 200 tattoos on his body.

Nowadays, it’s usual to express oneself through ink, and elaborate, eccentric tattoos seem to be very popular. However, most people have a limit on how much they will spend to have anything done to themselves, and for most people, that limit is far lower than what Ethan was prepared to pay.
But the greatest attention is drawn to his tattoos, which isn’t surprising considering how completely covered he is. Ethan disclosed that, in total, he had spent about $60,000 AUD (about $39,000 UD) to achieve his current appearance.
However, he has since voiced some remorse for his previous decisions.
He said on LadBibleTV’s No Filter series, “I suppose you could say I regret some tattoos.”
“I believe that regret and wanting to be seen differently are two different things.”
Ethan continued by saying that he is concerned about the criticism he may get when carrying out specific daily duties, including dropping his little daughter off at school.
“For some people, but not for everyone, the face is a big thing that can lead to so many – can lead to a lot of problems for yourself, which I probably wouldn’t want my daughter to have to deal with until she was a bit older,” he stated.
“I wish I hadn’t gotten so worked up on my face.”
Ethan has been having excruciating laser surgery to try to undo some of the ink he received as a child in an effort to improve his appearance.
“I’ve been getting laser [surgery], or have been, for pretty much 12 months,” he explained. I’ve probably gone over the entire thing six or seven times, but we do it in chunks.
Because of the anxiousness and other things I was experiencing, I started finishing it. It’s hard to pinpoint mental health issues, but I’d like to think that having a lot of tattoos on my face contributed to my anxiety.
“I’m content with my appearance, but I’m also content with the mindset that my facial tattoos will gradually disappear over the course of the next two years. All I’m doing is cleaning the canvas.
