Howie (LunaCobra) sent me an update on Josh‘s blue eye tattoo project which is looking great! I’m very jealous! Howie’s done a few more eyeball tattoos as well since he did the three of us (Josh, Pauly, and myself) last summer, and a few other people have experimented with it as well, both with machines and injection. Check it out, and there are two more (less “manipulated”?) photos after the break.
More entries on eye tattooing on ModBlog — 1 2 3 4 5 — as well as on my personal blog. I’ll try and post an update on the problems with mine — I have what seems to be a permanent, albeit probably harmless, bump on my eye — in the next few days.

Well… I was thinking the first one looked too perfect… and if that’s what his eye does look like, he’s incredibly lucky. However, I find it weird that the next two show a white margin around the iris… Maybe it was a different day and stuff shifted around though. Either way, all three shots look really nice.

I think there’s some overflow of ink in the photos. I hope I don’t have to update the entry and say that the photos were tweaked!!! (I asked Howie for more details, but he’s at APP, and just forwarded this email to me from another person who took the photos).

woah didn’t expected it to looks so well. I mean. When the eyeball tattooing thing first started there was so much controversy about it. But now i guess… It looks good! though at some angles there’s a rim of un-dyed white around the pupils.

Soon he will go through the agony, yes, to see if he is truly the Kwisatz Haderach.
Well, maybe not but I think of Fremen when I see this picture.

This always makes me think “man, that guy really wishes he had osteogenesis imperfecta.”

Well the first photo as taken another place and in different light that the second and third, but none the less, on 1st picit looks cool… the little white edge on 2nd and 3rd pic ruins it a bit though! 🙁

I love the concept! I echo the sentiments in previous posts about the Fremen, Spice and anything remotely Dune related. I’m in awe of this!

looks impressive. Does anyone know if this is the final incarnation of it, or is there more work to be done to it? like, darkening the colour, or doing the small uncoloured section

Interesting. I read about the doctor who wrote a paper about corneal tattooing in the third link. That’s surprising that a doctor is interested something like this.

Excellent work. Seems like Josh truly has the (eye)balls for it! Looking good.

I’d do that, except for the whole needle-in-my-eye part kinda freaks me out.

this looks fantastic! i’m so impressed. i wonder if he’ll do the other eye too, for symmetry.
