Ethan “Modboy” Bramble, once famous for his extreme body modifications—including tattooed eyeballs, a split tongue, and even removed ears—is now nearly unrecognizable.

The Australian influencer gained attention online for pushing the boundaries of body art, using his entire body as a canvas. But everything changed when he became a father.

After welcoming a baby girl with his partner, Ethan decided to undergo the painful and expensive process of removing many of his tattoos—wanting to look less intimidating and more “normal” for his daughter’s sake.

What was once a body fully covered in ink is slowly returning to a more natural state, as Ethan puts fatherhood ahead of his past image. His dramatic transformation is a powerful reminder of how deeply becoming a parent can reshape your life—and your priorities.
