This ain’t no cold front

Her name may be Polareyez, but she’s definitely hot.  Featuring work from Nick Friederich, Jason Ackerman, Brian Decker, and Starr Belew, Polareyez has a lot going on for her.  Hopefully I can twist her arm to come down to BMEFest 2011.

I’ve got one more pic of her, but you’ll have to keep reading to see it.

It’s pretty tame content wise, but I figured it’s better to be safe than sorry.  Especially if it might cost someone their job.

Piercing Chakras

We’ve seen quite a few forehead microdermals designed to represent the third eye, however we don’t see a lot of projects that continue the line of chakras down the body.  WonderfulMouse here has gone out and gotten a series of four microdermals that represent the Swadhisthana, Manipura, Anahata, and Vishuddha chakras.  It’s worth noting that her jewelry choice matches the color that represents each chakra.

Hello Micro-Kitty

I will never doubt this woman’s commitment to sparkle motion ever again. I know some pretty intense Hello Kitty fans, but to get that many microdermals in the shape of said kitty is beyond what any of them would do.  This is fandom.  Take note, she also has Hello Kitty plugs, and those cheek piercings are pretty cute too.

Bart Bastiaanse from Tribal Trading Tilburg in The Netherlands painstaking crafted this portrait out of 75 individual microdermals.  My count may be wrong, so if your eyesight is better than mine, go ahead and count them.  Bart uploaded a few pictures of this project, including some of him in action.  They’re located in the Tribal Trading Portfolio Gallery.

98 Problems and a Cross Ain’t One

Now this is something I was to see healed up.  This was taken just minutes after it was finished, so it’s hard to tell how the microdermals are going to hold up.  As you’ve probably guessed, this one is also by Nesh Cash from Tribal Trading Tilburg in Tilburg, The Netherlands.  Nesh is the one behind the other microdermal projects we’ve been seeing all week.

Oh, and to save you the counting, that would be 98 individual microdermals making up that cross.

Project 33

It seems that the anchor wasn’t the only microdermal project coming out of Tribal Trading Tilburg recently.

And here’s a close-up of the piercings..

According to Lesh Cash, who is the artist behind this project, the 80 microdermal anchor is still in place and healing well.  There was some slight irritation with less than 10 of them, but they’ve since been replaced and things are progressing nicely.  Hopefully we’ll get to see more of these projects, as well as some healed photos of the anchor.

Anchors Aweigh

Considering an anchor is a big weight meant to hold a ship in place, it makes you wonder if the 80 microdermals in this anchor hold her down at all?  Oh, that’s not a typo, I counted, and there are indeed 80 in place.

This project was put together by Bart Bastiaanse from Tribal Trading bv in Tilburg, The Netherlands.

I guess this puts new meaning to the term “surface anchor”

Behind the hooks

Over the past year we’ve seen a lot of submissions sent in by the #Leeds Suspension Team out of St. Petersburg, Russia.  Well, one of the members of the team, who is normally off camera, hopped in front of it and sent in a recent photo of himself.  Now Arseniy is no stranger to being featured on his own.  Myself, Jen, Rachel, and Jordan have all posted photos, and it’s easy to see why.  The guy is just so photogenic, and is very deserving of the title of BMEBoy.

Oh, those implants in his arm?  He put them in himself with a little assistance from Vlad SINtezz from Total Ink BodyModifications.
