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.

August Toe Revision

A friend who I’ve featured here before with his finger revisions sends in this work he did back in August to give his toes a shorter and cleaner look. The quality of work he’s done is really quite exceptional for self-amputation and the healed results (you can see some on the smaller toes) are very nice if you’re into this sort of thing.

    Most of the things here on modblog don’t even make me blink, but this is one of the few in which my stomach jumps a bit — and not in the good “Ohh, YAY!” kind of way.

    wow, they all look very neat. I confess I don’t know a whole lot about amputation but they do seem all very smooth and actually quite natural looking to me.
