Xeni over at BoingBoing has posted a nice follow-up interview with Jim Ward (available both in audio and in transcript form) about both piercing history, and the Louie (father of Karl) Rove piercing story. Click the picture of Jim to jump right to the interview now.

Dave’s branding is freshly done in this photo, by Quentin at Kalima Modifications in Worthing, Sussex, UK. I really love how much facial work I see these days — when BME first started, it was almost unheard of, but now, I see new people with facial tattoos and scars and every day.

Josh is one of the first of the three of us to get the eye tattoo experiment, and I think his has turned out the best… On the left is real, and the right is a mockup of what it could eventually look like — somewhat alien, to say the least! He says it’s obvious what the rest of his knuckles read since the one hand says “SURG”… I’m going to assume “SURGICAL” but maybe it says “SURGING!” or “SURGE FAN”…
PS. Josh was asking me if anyone has any recommendations on the best (cheapest?) place to get sheep eyeballs to practice on is… Is it easiest to just go to a butcher shop? Or to order them from a scientific supplier?

I’ve posted a couple face shots of Satanycandle in the past, but I liked this recent full body shot and thought it was about time I added one of her.
