Rick is turning himself into a zombie. So far, more than 24 hours of tattoos –
costing over £4,075 Canadian – have got him halfway there and made him a minor
celebrity on the internet, where people can’t decide if he’s a body modification
visionary or mentally ill sick.
When he was a kid he was a big fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and he
wanted to be a ninja turtle and live in the sewers. But as he got older he fell
in love with zombies and wanted to become one. The closest thing he could get to
becoming a zombie was to get tattooed like one. He see his tattoos as
celebrating the art of obscenity and the macabre.
He thought long and hard about what he really wanted, what his passion was. And
he decided he wanted to be a zombie. His first big move was getting his hands
outlined as skeleton print. They say that once he get his hands tattooed it’s
harder to find a job.
He expected some portions of his tattoos to look more bloody and gory. Probably
because he got an overactive imagination and he’d never be satisfied with the
results. His friends think it’s cool. It’s punk rock..
