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.

A Promise More Precise


Good afternoon, ModBloggers! Let’s kick things off with the lovely Lyn who, judging by the X on her hand, is apparently fresh from a concert (or perhaps “the club”?). Beyond that, however, she’s sporting tattoo work by a fairly elite fraternity of artists—the sleeve we can see is by the excellent Rob Coutts, while her forehead dots were courtesy of Chris David, then of TCB and now at Sailor Jerry Swallow’s Olde Tyme Tattoo.

Hey, it’s Friday! This week is just about over, friends. Time to do the cockroach.
