Meet Steffi aka MissSkeletor:
The Rising Star of German Tattoo Art

Hi, I’m Steffi—also known as MissSkeletor in the tattoo world. At 38 years old, I’ve been tattooing for four years, but my creative journey started much earlier. I’ve always been passionate about art, exploring various mediums like airbrushing, screen printing, drawing, and sewing. This diverse background deeply influences my unique tattoo style and artistic approach.
I’m originally from Stuttgart, Germany, and I bring a fresh perspective to the local tattoo scene. While I haven’t yet participated in tattoo conventions or competitions, I’m excited to announce that I’ll be entering contests this year—so let’s see what happens!
My favorite tattoo styles include horror, comic-inspired designs, and a blend of blackwork and vibrant color. This mix allows me to create bold, eye-catching tattoos that tell stories and spark the imagination.

Sometimes images are born not from logic, but from intuition — like a shadow that suddenly turns to face you.
That’s how she appears: from the mist, from thought, from the rhythm of footsteps on wet cobblestones.
This is my personal interpretation of Sherlock Holmes, inspired by the “Sherlock” series from BBC and the unforgettable performance of Benedict Cumberbatch.
His cold focus, sharp physicality, and almost inhuman insight left a mark on me — a spark of inspiration that one day wanted to take the form of a woman.
Not a copy, not a remake, but an independent persona: sharp intellect, charisma, fragility without weakness — running through the fog of Victorian London. She is a detective for whom one glance is enough to piece the world together.

In Flames Returns Stronger
Than Ever: New Album and World Tour Announced
In a music scene full of seemingly endless subgenres and transient trends, In Flames are an example of what it means to steadfastly stay true to your vision Since forming in Gothenburg, Sweden, in 1990 the legendary melodic metal act have toured the planet countless times and influenced many of today's biggest metal acts without ever ceasing to push their own signature sound forward. In that spirit the band's twelfth fulllength Battles sees In Flames eschewing proven formulas in favor of trying new things, most notably finding a new collaborator in Grammy-nominated producer Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, The Used ) who was brought into the band's coveted inner circle in order make Battles an album that will appeal to every type of In Flames fan.
“This album came together much sooner than we thought it would,” guitarist Björn Gelotte explains when asked about the writing process. “I was very reluctant in the beginning but I had a bunch of riffs so I just sat down with [vocalist] Anders [Fridén] and started working on stuff and it began to come together really quickly.” Before bringing things to bassist Peter Iwers and guitarist Niclas Engelin, the duo decided to leave the comforts of Sweden for Los Angeles where they would write all day and then BBQ and drink beer until the early hours of the morning “I think being in California really affected this album in the sense that we had a studio in the house that we were staying at and the vibe was really relaxed which lent itself to productivity,” Fridén adds

In fact although the band were only planning on recording 11 songs they actually came away with 15 of them and this inspiration was partially due to Benson's influence on the overall process. “I think it really helped having a producer who could make us focus on what we needed to accomplish and keep us on track,” Fridén continues “This was a very new approach for us because we've never let anyone else in the way we did with Howard,” Gelotte adds “We met with a lot of producers prior to starting this album and he seemed like the only guy who didn't want to change anything; he just wanted to make sure we were making the best In Flames record that we could and it just felt right,” he continues “It's not that we aren't happy doing things ourselves we just thought we would try something different because that's what this band has always been about.”
That confidence and palpable excitement is dripping all over Battles from the instantly infectious “take the power back” anthem “The Truth” to the jaw-dropping technical brutality of “Through My Eyes” and distinctive groove and climactic chorus of the album's title track. In other words, the album sees the band making the hooks sharper, the riffs tighter and honing the overall attack in a way that parallels their legendary live shows in an unparalleled fashion “When people hear this album I think they're going to instantly know that it's the new In Flames without us repeating the same song over and over and that's something I'm incredibly proud of,” Fridén says “There's something in the fingers of the guys and my voice that's undeniable but I really hope that our songwriting is something can continue to evolve the way that it did here in the future.”
That relentless drive to innovate in light of their success is something that's been inherent in In Flames' approach from day one and it's something they've never lost sight of despite their countless accolades and constant reinventions. ”We decided early on we are going to do this band our way and aren't going to think about what the flavor of the month is,” explains Gelotte. “In the end we are the ones who are going to have to play these songs and stand behind them and as long as we love what we you do and make the listener feel it then that's what makes it an In Flames song,” he continues. “That may sound like a cliché but it's true. We need the music to be as interesting to us as it is to our fans because this has never just been a job for us, it's a way of life.”
This mission statement to be working as evidenced by the fact that In Flames' audience is a wide range of ages, genders and music fans, which is ultimately due to the fact that the band have never tried to be something they're not. “The beautiful thing about this band is that you can do whatever the fuck you want and that's the whole point of the music because all of the restrictions and labeling kills it in a way,” Gelotte summarizes. “This time around we had the Howard filter to come in and give us a new perspective on how we could approach this songs but ultimately what it comes down to is very simple: Is it good or is it bad? If it's something that all of us can stand behind and be proud of then we know that it's an In Flames song.”
In Flames, a Swedish heavy metal band, has had a number of lineup changes throughout its history. The current members include:
Anders Fridén: Lead vocalist (since 1995)
Björn Gelotte: Guitar (since 1998)
Niclas Engelin: Guitar (various periods, including 1997-1998, 2006, 2009, 2011-present)
