A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

It’s Universal.

I didn’t realise that this scarification was by Lucas until after I’d edited the photo, honest!

    Smoofsy – I think it might be bruised from his eyebrow piercing, maybe it was recent?

    Dunno, don’t know much about eyebrows.

    The small cut under his eye is grossing me out. Overall it’s great though. I also want to see healed pictures in the future.

    ya im not a fan of the small under eye one to agree with # 7. its looks so gouged.. but what do i know i’m sure it was done correctly. maybe it’s just puckering due to healing or something.
