#a240 :: “Magnum” 13-tip tattoo needle

Tonight was big.

For three-plus years, order Justin has been installing and detailing my biomechanical arm. He does all the heavy shading with one of these nasty bastards – 13 tattoo needles epoxied together in a head and soldered onto a needle shaft.

Tonight he finished all the principal work, order leaving only some cleanup, and we’re talking about him putting some decals and abrasions on the “blank” plates between the open access ports …

I’ll post a bit of video later, but until then, here are a few stills of this evening’s session – the upper inside of my arm and my inside elbow, which he added some blacklight ink to.

And yes, it damn well hurts. But that’s only temporary. Ars longa. Vita equalis.
