BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

The City of Sin

Written by

Rob

When it comes to kick-ass sleeves, you don’t have to look very far if you’re in Linz, Austria.  That’s where Martin from Studio 74 crafted this amazing tribute to the film adaptation of Frank Miller’s Sin City.  Now you’ll find it in the cartoon gallery, but that’s just because there’s no movie or comic gallery.  By the looks of it, the inner forearm has a picture of Jackie Boy, but I have no idea what’s inside the upper arm.

    I’ll ask her having lunch but I think on the inside arm are Gail at the top, then Marv and Kevin on the wrist. A beautiful girl, with beautiful sleeves.

    Miller. Not Millar. Frank Miller. Not Mark Millar. Miller – the Sin City Guy. Millar – the Kick Ass Guy.

    The bump is her other hand sticking in her pocket, you can even see her thumb.
