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.

Until the Very End of Me


Good morning, ModBloggers! Let’s start the day with the lovely darkgrrrl, who, in addition to plenty of fine work, is sporting an excellent horror movie-themed sleeve. Check out a few more shots after the jump.

    I don’t really care for the sleeve but the chestpiece more than makes up for it.

    damn that looks like an awesome sleeve, such soft greys are hard to get right. i wish the artist was credited. some closeups would be nice.
    i also like her chest piece alot, i wish i could see more of it. i wonder if she made the choice to go B&G, cuz that looks so much better then blaring color on a woman’s chest IMO.
    i wonder if darkgrrl will go all (or mostly) B&G with all her tats. that could be nice.

    lastly, fuck spiral

    I think the most amazing thing about this is the tiny amount of red in the Jason mask. Very cool.

    Excellent shading. So often portrait tattoos end up looking really… dirty, due to overshading, but these are great.

    I agree the bit of red on Jason is a good touch too.
