Here we go, again.

Saturday, January 24th, 2009

It’s starting all over again – I’ve began having the left sleeve inked in. This piece is biomech with a twist. Incorporating the tatts that are already there should be quite fun – Mind you, we managed to do it on the other arm with geek/tribal/chicks with strap-ons; so this one should be a cinch  :-)

Scrubbers!

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

I’ve been irritating (for many a year :-) ) my leg with varoius items, now that the branding on my leg is nicely settled. But which is the best one for the purpose? The toothbrush, nailbrush, buff puff, scouring pad? There’s only one way to find out. . .  FIIIIGHT!

Which is best for scrubbing a branding???

Here’s the results:

  • Toothbrush – Not very good – 1/10
  • Nailbrush – Better than the toothbrush – 3/10
  • Buff puff – Silly name, but good 6/10
  • Green scouring pad – Nice 9/10
  • Brillo pad??? I’ve not tried that yet :-)

Leg Branding Six Weeks On

I took this picture after scrubbing out with some exfoliating wash and a green scouring pad – it’s not as bad as it sounds, honest! :)

Happy New Year

Sunday, January 4th, 2009

Welcome to ‘09! Last year was a good one, with lots of new body mods for me; leg branding, tongue split, head implants and the finishing off of my sleeve. This year promises much; hopefully I manage to get ’round to doing the suspension in the Spring, some facial cutting and starting the left arm sleeve tatt.

I’ve started the year the way I mean to continue by starting to stretch my ears – they are currently 40mm and I plan to take them up to 50mm this year. Finding suitable jewellery at this size is not easy, it tends to be a little expensive (especially when it’s only going to used for a couple of weeks) So I decided to make my own – I’ve got hold of some PMMA tube and cut it to size and polished it – you can see the results below.
