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.

Lucky BMEboys Saturday 14/15

This is an older picture — from back in May — so you can check Evildustin‘s page to see how it’s doing, but it’s healed in this picture… It was done electrically, but it harkens back to old-style Maori tattooing which was more closely related to wood carving than face painting, and left deep scars like this.

    Hmmm, it would be interesting to collaborate with a tattoo artist that specialized in traditional tribal and a scarification artist, to create a design to cut. Then, once it was healed, you could tattoo the incised lines.
    Does anyone really know how the Maoris got their tattoo work to look like it was carved in?

    Nyarlathotep, the Maori used small chisels and literally sliced into the skin.

    I’m afraid that I dislike the above comparison with traditional Maori work, though, because it was *always* pigmented. After the pattern was opened up, the moko artist tapped in the pigment with another chisel that had serrated teeth.
