As big a skull as possible

-

Richard lives in Redcar in the northeast of England and decided he wanted the biggest skull he could get on his back.  He persuaded Alex, who is a good friend and an apprentice tattooist, to draw up the design, which he did by taking images from the internet and then photo-shopping them and adding a brush stroke effect.

His arm is influenced by the great American artist Roy Lichtenstein.

Richard was at Tattoo Freeze with his tattooed fiancée Lindsay.  He's a builder and although he's in Redcar now  is originally from London. 








After his back is finished he plans a full leg of Old Skool.

His work is done by Gothika Tattoo, whose website is currently under construction.

Tight lacing - an extreme body modification

-
Image
My mind is focussed on just one kind of extreme body modification - heavy tattooing.  My body appearance has changed drastically in the past five years. But what are other people's body modifications of choice?  One is  a practice known as "tight lacing", in which the users of corsets embark on reducing their waist sizes to as small at 17 or 18 inches, if they can. It's not something that grabs me but Lacie here ( www.staylace.com ) has dedicated herself to the practice.  There are others like her who take it very seriously.  It's a fetish and not necessarily permanent.  If you give up regularly wearing this special kind of corset then you will eventually revert to normal. I have no plans to embark on this myself, but before I pass any judgement must reflect that what I am doing to myself is even more extreme.  The images here are truly eye catching.  I have never knowingly met anyone who is into tight lacing yet there is a big community out there who do it.

Pubic tattoo

-
Image
The work in my groin and pubic area has been completed.  Years ago Louis Molloy did the central figure in this picture but avoided going all the way.  Now Ben has tattooed a circle of clouds all around the image that goes as far as it can without inking my genitalia.  This completes the work on my torso. Added to that Ben has worked some hair detail on a much older art nouveau image originally tattooed in the nineties.  Months ago Ben covered the black hair with brown.  Today he gave the hair some texture. To mark the end of this phase Ben took some pictures of my whole body.

An overlap between my tattoo blog and my transition.

-

This is how I look after being on hormone treatment for 18 months and after two lots of facial feminisation surgery.  I have also had a lot of electrolysis on my beard.  I have been transformed.  And there is still quite a way to go yet. You can see some of my tattoos peeping out from the top of my dress.  It seems evident now that my quest for a full body suit is linked to my gender dysphoria.  I am not trying to suggest that everyone who gets a body suit suffer from dysphoria.  Not at all.  But in my case I think it is just one of a number of things I had been doing to change my appearance completely. Now my focus on being tattooed has dissipated as I continue my transition with my mind devoted now on my gender reassignment surgery scheduled for August of this year, 2020.  Once my transition is finished then I must finish the work currently in progress on my legs. You can follow my transition via my YouTube videos.  Just search for Zoë Genevieve Perry.
