You may remember at the start of the month I posted shots of The Engima‘s (iam:TheEnigma) ear reshaping by Howie (LunaCobra.net) when they were fresh and sutured. They’re healing really well, and The Enigma sends in these shots of how it’s doing these days.

He should remove alternating teeth so they ‘interlock’ like puzzle pieces.

I wonder if he sometimes wakes up and thinks “man…I just want to go to the grocery store and not have children cry from fear…just once….”

Sometimes I wake up and think “Man… I just want to enter in the bus and no one talk to me… just once…”
I think is the point of view and not the body-mods.
And childrens cry for ugly/bad people and not different people. In most of the cases, different people wake some interest on the child.
Enigma for President!

How much would something like that change his hearing?

The puzzle piece thing slipped past me somehow the first time, too, but now that they’re healed they really fit in well with his tattooing. Looks great.
I imagine he has made a kid or two cry in public, though. 🙂

Sorry for the double-post, but I just clicked through and was intrigued that it was only his left ear that he reshaped.

most kids wont cry from fear when they see unusual people. they have not learned that hate and close minded yet. kids are very open to shit and most are shy to strangers anyways. its all about attitude towards them . if you smile back at a starin kid they most likely will smile back but if you scream what the fuck you looking at to them yeah it might scare them. reminds me of that video trailer for the bme video when the lil girl seen lizard in the store and just screams and points at him all confused

Love the Enigma’s new ears. As for scaring kids, Me and the Guys from Sacred Skin in des moines iowa hung out with him out side of the convention in little rock, arkansas and everyone wanted to talk to him or take pictures of him and these are people not into tattoos or body mods. Even when he visited us in Iowa it was the same. People are more curious than turned off and its the same for kids. He’s different so they are more curious about it. The kids who react badly are the once who have parents who react negatively so they think they should react that way too. anyway i’m rambling so i should end this post.
