Link Crossplay



Geek 1: Where did you get the sword and shield?
Geek 2: Some redhead dressed like Link came over, took off all her clothes, and said I could have whatever I see.
Geek 1: Good choice, the clothes probably wouldn’t fit.

Throaty Clipcord

This is Rick's clipcord. This was the first time I've ever tattooed a throat. I was a little nervous but Rick sat like a rock and I had a lot of fun.

Rapture day stuffs

So if today is indeed the rapture I better get this blog posting done quick like. Here's some new stuff




Yeah This is how my day began. Damn near a dozen circles. I assure you all that this thing is ROUND the pic makes it look a little oblong. It's on the front of a shin and I never want to do it again.



Did this a little while ago. Dude's daughters name is Olive. Had fun for a little tattoo



This is a little preview of a good sized cover up I'm working on this is after a 2 1/2 session god a few more hours to put into it so I didn't want to show the whole shebang yet just a little sample. I really want to do more tattoos like this.

Well It's been nice knowing all of you bring on the rapture!

Garrus Vakarian



Garrus Vakarian (from Mass Effect) by Chris Myles
I hand carved the scars and then spray painted the whole thing. I airbrushed in the scars, details and shadows and hand painted on the "war paint." Visor made of craft foam and a hand cut/heat bent PET strip and 2 LEDs with super glued on Objet(Eden 350) icons.

Armor:
Made from armature wire/mesh, upholstery foam, plaster, and fiber glass resin.

Since this was my first attempt at armor, I tried a hand full of different methods on each section of armor. Method that worked the best was an under form of mesh/armiture with streched foam on top. Mix (1:1ish) Modge Podge with flexable Joint Compound to make thick MP and coat foam. Light sanding, paint and distress to finish. Armor looks hard but is still kinda foamy. For really flexable armor just use foam coated with flexable glue. Light sanding, paint, yada-yada...

Lighting system has 5 channels with 8 modes (no fancy micro controllers, just a hacked LED christmas light set). 59 (49 blue and 10 for the UV face lighting) LEDs in the armor (Hooray 19 hours of wiring/soldering!)
