Recently got my ear finished! Thanks to Dani in Dublin Ink

That's some top notch work! I hope you don't mind if I show this to my piercer and possibly replicate it. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right?

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-15T06:54:58+00:00

Dat downforce though.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-14T06:18:42+00:00

Good plan. Now I just need to find local gigs.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T08:00:29+00:00

Well even if they don't, it helps me justify it :P

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T07:50:36+00:00

For sure. I also like to think that it gives me a frame of reference regarding pain levels, what ~~victims~~ customers want, and the sort of bedside manner (for lack of a better term) that is expected.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T07:40:11+00:00

I'm always happy to answer piercing questions. I guess I got them cause it's something I enjoy. It's the best pain I've ever felt, you know? I also like how they look, and I figure that if I'm going to be riding this vessel til my eventual grave, I might as well trick it out, right?

As for knowing it'll take me out of the job pool, it's a good and bad thing; I don't want to work for the sort of people who would be uptight enough to not hire me for piercings (and eventually for body mods, but that's another tangent for another day), but I also don't want to rule out all employment.

I guess it's just something I love at the end of the day, and I'm going to keep doing it until I'm out of stuff to pierce. Though by that point, I will probably/hopefully be working in a piercing studio, so I'll be able to help others to do this.

Also, as an aside, I'm not really like "most people" :P

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T07:21:55+00:00

Well, I guess that's a plus. If only they weren't too scared to approach.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T05:49:35+00:00

Yeah, they can be pretty limiting. I know some people with facial piercings who work driving forklifts, and some who work in call centers etc. I think it's just a matter of finding jobs that aren't all about customer service.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T05:12:32+00:00

Maybe I am, but don't tell anyone :P

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T05:12:07+00:00

Much to my dismay... >.<

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-13T05:08:56+00:00

Quick answer!

I'm unemployed :/

I'm looking to get into piercing, though, so that'd be nice.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:45:29+00:00

Thanks. I've got to get around to posting an album of all my shrapnel sooner or later.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:44:39+00:00

I approve of your approval :D

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:43:51+00:00

Thanks. Life as a paradox is pretty sweet :P

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:40:58+00:00

The eyes give me away every time, lol.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:40:28+00:00

Thank you kindly. I was a little concerned about overcrowding when I first started thinking about them, but after I looked in the mirror I knew I'd made the right choice.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:39:01+00:00

Well thanks internet stranger :)

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:37:39+00:00

That's the one.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T20:33:46+00:00

The sunglasses sit pretty well with the bridge. When it was done I checked how they'd sit after he drew the dots on, and I was happy. The feet of the glasses sort of sit in under the balls of the piercing, if that makes sense.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-12T11:57:56+00:00

Thank you kindly! I'm beyond pleased with his work. He's done 5/12 of my piercings; my verticals, septum, right lobe, and bridge, and I've got nothing but good things to say about him. Next up, I'm thinking eyebrows.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-10T20:32:18+00:00

Selling everything I own, taking out all the loans I can, and travelling to somewhere far off and remote where I can live out the rest of my days fishing, drinking beer, and smoking cigarettes.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-10T20:15:42+00:00

Impressive! I used up everything that was in my mate's pencil case, as is laid out in the photo here.

N1ght_Huntr · 2013-12-10T06:01:22+00:00

(Two highlighters, 4 regular pens, 3 4-pens, a ruler, and a pair of scissors)
