Finding this tricky without immunos. Amelanotic melanoma?

One image shows what looks like osteoid. Another possibility is extraskeletal osteogenic sarcoma.

Metaplastic amelanotic melanoma. Area with osteoid. Foci that looks angiosarcomatous.

Cutaneous carcinosarcoma will also be in the differential. Difficult without IHC.

Melanoma. Agree on performing a panel of immunos (ck, vim, s-100,desmin, cd31, cd34 and eventually hmb-45, melan A)

Immunos are crucial, thinking melanoma and epithelioid angiosarcoma.

Favor epithelioid angiosarcoma for immunos.

Epithelioid angiosaroma with osteoid.  Melanocytic markers were negative.  Positive for CD31, ERG and FLI-1.
