Body modification is a good thing if you want to look perfect. But a Venezuelan man took his craving for perfection a little further to look like the Marvel super villain Red Skull from Captain America: The First Avenger.

Henry Damon, 37, a married man who is obviously a huge fan of sci-fi movies and comic books went through several subdermal implants on his forehead and also got a part of his nose removed to achieve the right look.

Damon says that it was his dream to look like the Red Skull and that he will be taking it even further to fulfill his lifelong dream.

He first tattooed his eyeballs black before getting his face tattooed with red and black to look like the comic book villain.

It was in 1947 when the Red Skull first appeared in the comic books as the Nazi agent archenemy of the Marvel superhero Captain America, and recently appeared in the 2011 Marvel film Captain America: The First Avenger.

Before undergoing this extensive surgery and implants, Damon went through several physical and psychological tests, according to Emilio Gonzalez, a tattoo and extreme body surgery specialist. Gonzalez said that Henry aka Red Skull is a physically and intellectually healthy person.

Gonzalez says that this is not the end of Damon's transformation, and that they are about to take it even further. He said: 'Next will be silicone implants on the cheekbones, chin and cheeks. Then we will tattoo his entire face red and then he will be Red Skull.'

According to the Daily Mail, Pablo Hernandez, who is a friend of Henry Damon, said "He has loved comic books since he was a kid and always dreamed of being Red Skull, but never got round to doing it."
