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.

Almost healed

Steve Truitt (Stay Gold, Albuquerque, NM — but given how regularly he’s featured here I’m sure you know that by now!) has been slowly sculpting *Stitch* (this piece was posted fresh as well) into a scarified dreamgirl. Seriously, the number of gorgeous people, male and female, who are now choosing scarification as their dominant personal artform grows all the time… I love it!

    and once again cause your lil brain cant handle this….my comments were not about females. it was about the fat ,angry, insecure people on here that jumped in out of nowhere starting shit up. so i could honestly give a fuck what you think of me. im just toying around now. you have no part in this as far as i see other then to act like a child and keep this goin. you have nothing of any use here . other then to contradict everything you are saying

    i have a fat penis. that is excepted tho. for the rest fact is that there are more skinny models then chubby models. so i guess there is more a quest for skinny girls then chubby

    I’m a little confused at this entire argument.
    scrolling down this one page of modblog, i noticed 3 girls who stood out as an “average” body type to me, Mia More (the valentines day girl), Namesofthedead (resurrection suspention girl), and Copperwire (the… girl with the nice nipples? >.>)
    those three girls seem to be quite average sized, not over weight, not underweight, at least to me.
    Im really not sure of the “average” thats being demanded here, as a size 8 or 9 (Canadian sizing) myself, i notice quite a few girls on modblog that are close to my size, and i concider myself fairly average.

    i agree that woman and men of ANY size can be gorgeous, but i also think that everyones version of “average” is different.

    anyhow, stitch IS skinny, but honestly, she doesnt look unhealthy, at least to me. i also really enjoy the DNA themed scarification

    All I have to say is, replace “fattie” with asian, caucasion, african amerian, jewish, italian, etc, and it’d be prejudice pure and simple.

    Ahhh… Size-ism, the last great prejudice of the civilized world.

    Hey Stimgata, do you and Rush Limbaugh hang out alot or what??

    (And by that I mean you’re a prejudiced bigot.)

    I dislike when skinny girls are displayed on modblog with only a belly button piercing or a star tattoo that i’ve see a million times before. This girl’s got some amazing work and her mods realy stand out. I like that she’s posted. Very nice.

  14. _Stigmata_ Avatar

    you fat fucks….will you let this die allready. who cares if i dont like fat crybabies on the internet. you all have serious issues and need to see that for your selves. cause you too dumb to figure it out. keep twistin up my weords to try to get even fatter angry people in here yelling. if you cant get over the genoicde to the fat angry people .better get bigger ovens. well then thats just on you. funny how only you think you can bithc and insult but i turn it into a joke and look how stuck on dumb shit you get,.

    Stigmata,
    You are moaning about others letting this go..
    Why dont you read above and see who keeps posting comments that sound as if a total mad man has written them.

    And just for the record im sure cere would sooner stick his dick in a blender rather the you!!

    To be honest, I feel so sorry for you what a dumb fuck wit you are.

    So do everyone a favour and die yourself, you dickless wonder.

  16. _Stigmata_ Avatar

    Im doin the same thing the fatties are doin. i left it alone and they jumped in once again like they were all on twinkie break. was fine and once again a stampeed of chunkers once again making ever dumb comments. so dont just focus on me for sayin whatever nobody is really readin anyways and focus on everyone. your not helping the propblem you are part of it.

    Stigmata,
    The only problem here is YOU and your nasty remarks about female bodies.

  18. _Stigmata_ Avatar

    my nasty remarks are not about females bodies you dumb shit. iit was my insults angainst the fat, angry man hating women in here that have nothing better to do then bitch about bein out of shape and hating people who take care of their bodies. you dumb shits can try to twist my words up and keep it goin but if you had any brains you would have read that by now. how come even right after callin a guy fat knowing you read that you still claim i am just pickin on fat women. i cant help it fat women hate me. i also cant help it that they hate themselves as well as hating anyone that is in shape or does not over eat on a daily basis

    Stigmata,
    You keep telling me I bitch, and im not a fat woman with anger issues.
    I just do not like you for making nasty remarks simple as that.

    Stigmata,
    You only have my word for it, to be honest I seriously do not care what you think of me.
    An insult off someone like you dosnt matter to me one bit.

    You are so wrong on this.
    But you think what you like if it makes you happy.

  28. _Stigmata_ Avatar

    Who really cares about how you look. you have a shitty attitude. that of an angry fat woman. so who cares. your like one of the phone sex operators. sayin they are all this and that and it turns out they end up lookin as bad as some of the women here complaining about never bein on modblog cause they are husky

    Stigmata,
    I have already stated I think she looks amazing, both personally and her work.

    It would be futile me trying to be the fool as you already have that market sawn up.

    Stigmata,
    Im certainly not your lil buddy. I would not associate myself with a person like you. Some of the comments you have made are nothing but a fair disgrace.
    Seriously, how would you feel if someone made the type of comments you have made about, lets say your mother or sister?

  35. _Stigmata_ Avatar

    well lets see. i had a valid point and reason to get rude to people. i have never said anything about anyone other then who was involved. so keep draggin it on to a pointless level little buddy.

    ÈMþRê§§

    Stig,
    You may believe you had a valid point and a reason to get rude to people.
    Why deliberatly hurt people you do not even know, just to get yourself noticed.
    Are you so desperate for attention, may I suggest you get out more.

  37. _Stigmata_ Avatar

    wow…and now you are a licesnsed shrink. my point was not to be noticed. anyone can do that. my point started the second some fat bitch made a comment and cried fro pity and blamed shannon for bein some type of nzai and not giving big girls a chance. they kept goin on. i dont care if i am not pc or mistype a word. who fuckin cares. but when some fat pigs start jumpin out of control on dumb shit cause of their own insecurities i simply stated to stop cryin and go on a diet and devote them selves. at first i did not single out anyone. and all kinds of freaks started whining i was being mean to them. i still have not once stated what i thought was fat and nobody asked. this was not about average or medium buiold. it was skinny and fat. but if you want to play shrink thats goin to be easy….lets see….im guessin you live in some two bedroom apartment in some dump part of town. your mooch all your money off your man..some times when your mom comes to get the baby cause you cant handle it you jump online and try to take all your stress out in forums like you are some real tough internet asskicer. i hope it builds up your ego and takes the stress away. but in reality it comes down to you are doin exactlly what you are complaining i am doin as wrong. its called a double standard and a hypocrite. you had no point from the beginning. as far as i can see from you now its a game of who gets the last word. is that all you want now?

    Shawn Tried And True – Ah, what “beef” are you talking about? I don’t have a “beef” with him, I don’t even know him. I was just annoyed at the amount of his posts saying basically the exact same thing as his other ones. I’m sure alot of people were thinking the same thing, I’m the only with the balls to say it. Relax.
