[QUOTE=mole]meh i got a septum, before i got my ears. pretty weird lookin. i dont have the septum anymore, but i remember tears comin out of my eyes when i got it.[/QUOTE]
My friend Graeme has his septum done. When he's got a metal C-shaped nosering in it, it looks fine. First time I saw him though he had a black pointy one and it looked like he spiked his nosehairs.

[QUOTE=cheeser_1]that's when i do all my sewing and stuff. i don't think i've really bought new clothes since like 8th grade except a few things here or there. it's much easier (read: cheaper) to just fix them. except shirts, which i accumulate over time.[/QUOTE]
I'm thinking I'm gonna start buying some thrift store stuff and customizing it. I'm sick of the shirts in the mall/department stores. Also, I want bellbottoms. I like doing hand embroidery, so I could get some cheap stuff and put patterns and stuff on the edges like trim sort of.

I really need to start looking for a new jacket. Had a denim vest and pretty much ruined it with a horrible design. However now I've actually got the design down on paper, and there's less a chance of me completely fuc[FONT=Verdana]k[/FONT]ing it up this time, although it seems I need to be somewhat picky about the actual jacket. I'll go look for the design, I have it online somewhere or another.

[QUOTE=uk82]Ok i finally got pictures of my jacket

Back of jacket
front of jacket

All the paintings look ****ed up because of folds in the jacket.[/QUOTE]

Nice, did the jacket come with that white outlining or did you put it on? I was thinking about putting it on mine at some point, but thought it may be a bit much since I also planned on making the one sleeve of it red or grey plaid.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]I've thought about getting one, I'm not really too sure though. I'd hate to shave 7/10 of my hair after growing it out this long, 'specially since I'm not even sure how cool it owuld look.[/QUOTE]

thats how i feel, im seriously thinking of getting one now but i'm not sure. I would hate to do it after all that and find out it looks stupid.

that's not much of a DIY question, and it would do better in the bass forum.

Ya i did it all my self, everything on there. :thumb:


and for the mohawks, who the **** cares if it looks good or bad, you dont get that type of hair if your worried about what other people think...

they might care what they think of themselves though. i mean, if they **** it up and think they look ugly, that's their own opinion, and your opinion of yourself does matter even if others' opinions don't.

uk82 07-30-2005 03:22 AM

Ya i guess, im just saying you dont get one to be pretty :D

That's basically my philosophy on the subject.

suicidal monkey 07-30-2005 11:23 AM

mohawks look pretty kickass on most people! ive got one and i think its funny when old people stare at you because of it, and you stare them out.
(i love old people)

yeah, i hated it when my mohawk was lopsided, i eventually fixed that. and i was always worried that one of the spikes would just fall over. and i'd look like a jackass. i suppose part of it was because i didn't want other people to see me looking like an idiot, but i didn't want to look like an idiot whether or not other people saw me.

[QUOTE=chairman_of_the_board]I just got done with mine and it hurts like hell.[/QUOTE]

I got my first one don at a pircing shop and the rest i did whith a hollow needle (like the ones the docters use) i foun the ones i did my self hert less and healed way faster if you use a hollow needle there is also no problem with getting the ring or stud through because you can stick it into the hole in the needle then pull it back through and the stud goes in with it also the best place to by needles is at a farm store they always have needles for cows and horses and what not and there cheep

BrightSides 07-30-2005 08:11 PM

where do you live? most places i know of don't sell needles without prescription/proof of use. due to drug use concerns.

Veterinary stores sell them. I know a lot of egg artists use them to empty eggs. Just shove a syringe in and pump in air if its a small gauge or use it to suck out the egg if it's a large gauge

WTF dood, your hair is guna fall out, just go buy bleech from a store, its like 5 bucks, put it in yer hair till it gets the colour you want, then wash it out, but never leave it in for more then 2 hours, ive been bleeching my mohawk for years, trust me!

also, use conditioner!

i live in alberta canada... and as i said a fram or vet store will sell you needles and cheep too you cant get them most other places because of drugs but people with livestock need needles and they dont want to have to get 200 prescriptions every 6 months


the bleach thing no my hair didnt fall out but it didnt bleach either... i think its cuz i died it black and all that hasnt come out yet

Anarchy&Peace 08-03-2005 11:47 PM

so i painted an oi polloi logo on my jacket with a white background i used acrylic paint too and it still cracked up. should i spray a protective coating over it or just use more layers of paint so this doesn’t happen again?

try fabric paint or puffy paint instead of acrylic. it's more flexible
