I’m referring to the bikes. But besides the bikes, on the right, Mary Sparks (see also Dolls of Evolved), and on the left with the airbrushed flame bike, Fancy Heart (photo by Chris Thornton). I feel like I might have mixed up some credits between the two photos, so please correct me if I did. I got distracted. Err, Happy Valentines Day.
I’m pretty sure that no one needs me to translate for Pascal (A Piel Studio, Sabadell, Barcelona) when he says, “sufrimiento piercing!”
Fourteen fresh fourteen gauge surface anchors, placed by Nickk Leading at Perforations in Denver, CO. It will be interesting to see whether they are more viable than surface bars in the same configuration (well, except if it was surface bars you’d probably have to do sixteen beads).
Tattooed on CreativeNonFiction by Jenn at Skin Prints in Eau Claire, WI… I appreciate the irony discovered when I pulled out the shadows of the photo!
As Betty Kate says, “who doesn’t love vampire rabbits?” Tattoo by Danielle at 13 Roses in Atlanta, GA.
While it’s true that dynamic rigging does adjust somewhat for motion, Neek pretty much would have to hold that pose the whole time to keep the weight distributed in this forearm suspension… Well, might as well kill two birds with one stone and get his workout done at the same time! Next time: Knee suspension crunches.

So I’m watching Daily Planet on the Discovery Channel and there’s a neat feature on these cool little microsatellites being developed at MIT’s Space Systems Lab under Dr. David Miller. Basically they’re like those little balls that float around space stations in Star Wars; very small and capable of highly precise motion. Anyway, they cut to the lead scientist, Alvar Saenz-Otero, and it caught my eye because he’s quite heavily pierced:
Among other things he’s got a bridge piercing, which is also known as the “Erl Piercing”, although that name is not that common these days. The name comes from the first person to popularize the piercing, Erl Van Aken, also known as one of the scientists that developed the lunar rover for NASA… Anyway, even if OfficeMax won’t hire visibly modified people, MIT and NASA (and in this case, DARPA) certainly don’t mind if you’re good at what you do. Personally I’d rather work for NASA than OfficeMax.
(My apologies for the terrible screenshots; I just took photos of my TV because I don’t have anything installed that can capture!)
Well, I suppose it is Megan‘s fault if that’s what the cookie says, right? Or maybe it’s your fault? Tattoo by Don Kizze at Metamorphosis in Indianapolis, Indiana.
I think that’s a Sprung or mandible piercing (boy, that encyclopedia entry needs to be updated — it’s a wiki, so feel free!) on this customer of Nickk Leading (Perforations, Denver CO), done using a three or four inch piece of tygon. Intense piercing!
