IMPORTANT QUESTIONI have a question!

This is WAY important...
Since some of you have known me for a while..
And you have only seen drawing of me...

I have been on DA for two years, and I think all is fair when I say...
Would you like to see the real me?

I mean an actual picture.

No editing, just me!

Reply or Fav this to tell me! ^^

If I can get over 7 people, I'll do it! ^^

I love you all loads, I want to do something special for you!

PainThe skin it knows

the swift sharp bite of steel's edge

a burst of agony in

pale soft flesh

Remembers in hard ridges

and pale scars the

brutal agony of rushing pain

These hurts they bring no fear, but

the gentle caress of ghostly pain;

the softest gust of life's breath

on marred and broken skin

springTumble litte flower

tossed by the fickle wind

falling, tail over head

rushing,

spinning,

out of control

petals a sickening blur of bruising colour

as the apathetic wind

crushes you, on the jagged rocks below

RoutineYelling.

Screaming.

Harsh words.

Violent tones.

Then after the final words are said,
And doors are slammed,

The calm.

And solitude.

The way I like it.

Gazing blankly out my bedroom window, music blaring behind me. I see him coming down the road, get the tears ready mum, get your act on mum, time to tell him what a horrid daughter I’ve been today. Liar.

Longed for youIve longed for your kiss,
Ive longed for your touch,
You dont know that ive longed for this feeling so much.
I cant help thinking your the one,
The only one that the light shines upon from the sun.
Maybe im wrong,
Or maybe im right,
But either way i holding onto this feeling very tight.
You are my heart,
You are my soul,
Your the one ive longed for so long.

Skeletal Serpent Chokerby *kyphoscoliosis

Artisan Crafts / Textiles / Accessories

NO, NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS NECKLACE. I found the snake dead on the side of the road, I promise you. Of anyone, I would be the last person to harm a gnat.
I've actually had this made for a very long time, though I've just now posted it. It is the vertebrae of a southern copperhead snake (Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix) intricately glued into shape after all the soft tissue was dissolved for months in a jar with a bleach and water solution. Each vertebra was refitted by hand, as was the skull (with the snake's skeletal chart handy ;3 ) and shaped to the curvature of my neck. It's stiff, so it could fit few people other than me. The black cord is strung through the empty spinal cord holes in each vertebra, latching in the back.
It's not comfortable for long-term wear, but it's a pretty badass accessory, since snakes are my favorite animals ;3

NOTE: Neither I nor my brother do custom work. Our crafts are strictly for our own use and are unfortunately not for sale. We have neither the time, money, nor patience to make these crafts a continuous job.

Well this just blew my mind.
That sounds like so much effort and attention, I would never have the patience to do anything that could even come close to how badass this is.

Thanks so much, sweetheart. It wasn't too tedious, but it did take some time.
<3

Wow! It's sort of creepy but I'd love to have one of those haha!

*kyphoscoliosis Jul 14, 2010

It's pretty uncomfortable, but it does make for a nice conversation-starter.

~tomastocornal Jul 14, 2010 Hobbyist General Artist

Sure it does! I'll try to find a snake I can choke and make one of those xD

A fitting tribute to a magnificent animal. That is a unique way to honor the snake who passed on. ^^

*kyphoscoliosis Mar 15, 2010

Thanks! I hated to see that beautiful creature dead, though. I love snakes so much. I really should have let ants eat away the flesh instead of soaking it off in alcohol. Thanks for seeing the artistry in it <3

~erulastiel21021 Mar 16, 2010

You are welcome!

It kind of reminds me of when I was little, and I was playing with the neighbor boys. They found a dead baby rattler, so we took it and sort of honored it by coming up with an entire snake related culture. It was weird, but interesting.

*kyphoscoliosis Mar 16, 2010

That's pretty cool, actually

As a kid, I used to bury dead animals I found and put flowers on their grave :d
