"Pillar of Souls done by Mikael Schelén at House of Pain, Stockholm,
Sweden.
The tattoo took a total of appr. twelve hours to complete, spread over
eight occasions. Pinhead's face alone took an hour and a half to complete. Since
good photos of the front of the pillar seem to be non-existing in both the movie
and promo shots the complete pillar was constructed from various photos found
in books, on the Internet and in the movie.
From this, Mikael sketched an outline
and tattoed the rest free-hand and in the proceedings gave more life to the
statue. The Lament Configuration is in color and so is the blood which runs
up the statue towards Pinhead's face."
