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.

Custom Cupcake

Joeltron and Kylie Garth from First Blood in Sydney finally finished a project they’ve been working on for a while, a complete microdermal cupcake (with sprinkles!).  Here’s what Joel has to say about it.

This awesome cupcake dermal anchor project was done over a number of sittings during the last few months. There are 33 in total and we did them in 8 sittings, around 2-3 weeks apart. Super stoked to FINALLY get a picture of them all changed and settled in! If you are wondering, the ‘sprinkle’ (rectangle) pieces were custom made by first cutting down a round disc and then anodizing them.

Email your submissions today! Simply send your photos to [email protected] and they’ll be automatically added to the image galleries.

    This reminds me of my bedazzled denim jacket when I was in elementary school in the 90s.

    yeah, but it’s easier to take off a jacket after two weeks or so, when you start to think that it’s a little bit too much

    NexiZydrate: It’s winter right now (in Australia) and she has no problems, as long as anchors heal nice and flat they are pretty snag-free.

    j: you should come for sure! I’m glad someone noticed the little pic in the corner.

    Reminds me of Mortal Kombat when the guy goes “Toasty!”

    Hello! I hope you can help. Googling and forums definitely didn’t. I ran across a site all.biz that allows you to create a account and publish your products and services at no cost. Your details are available to the visitors. Premium packages have additional benefits … naturally. Kind of seems too good to be true. Have you any idea if there is a catch? Thanks for you help.
