If you’ve got a fun idea for an erotic but artistic Xmas-themed photo set, please drop me a line, as it is that time of year again. I’m looking for really striking individuals with creative ideas. Please email submit@blueblood.net or reply here with the concept you’d like to do and what your comfort zone/interests are in terms of erotic expression on camera. Mostly shooting couples and women, but interested in exceptional men as well. Nudity required for this particular project. Mostly shooting this particular series as trade and sets published on BlueBlood.com let you qualify, with participation, for free memberships, swag, party invites, etc.

Look upon my works, ye mighty, with 3D glasses, and despair.

Last night, I went to see Beowulf with a bunch of my unsavory pals. This was our third attempt to put together a group of people to see it, but third time is a charm and there ended up being around a dozen of us including Blue Blood hotties Scar 13, Tassy Pink, Joel Awesome, and Kittie Klau, Blue Blood Creative Director Forrest Black, Allan Amato who shoots for Scar13.com and more. It was kind of cool because it seems like it is becoming less common to have a bunch of people get together for something simple like seeing a movie. Yes, I’m thinking of going to see a movie with naked vikings fucking water sprites as a wholesome activity. You have to consider what the rest of my existence is like to put it in context.

We saw Beowulf at the Arclight so we could view the 3D version. The Arclight has extra-comfy chairs and prides itself on its high tech theater equipment. This is Los Angeles, so the front hall featured a display with actual costumes worn by actors in the movie. I sort of thought they were all in motion suits and they made the flick video game style, but I guess physical outfits were involved at some point. I liked the clothing anyway. I think I need to start wearing a royal cape around. The Arclight personnel handed us 3D glasses on the way into the theater.

Spoiler alert: If you didn’t read Beowulf in school (or at any other point), then the rest of this might include spoilers. I studied all the Icelandic sagas in school. When I was in college, I actually took a class called “Kinship and Law in Medieval Iceland…

Here is a shot Forrest Black and I did of the Release the Bats Deathrock Anniversary and there are tons more deathrock pictures on Blue Blood Net. A lot of people only like to shoot women for some reason, but I really enjoy creating beautiful images with both men and women. Do you like to see both?

Just thought I’d share. Blue Blood is in the #1, #2, #5, and #11 positions on the Altporn.net rankings chart this month! Whoo-hoo!

Sit there and say my hair ain’t luxurious, when you know that it is, bitch.

I have a new guru. I just watched the Katt Williams Pimp Chronicles Pt. 1 on HBO. Well, specifically on my TiVo of an earlier HBO broadcast. Anyway, I have this impediment to increasing my personal success as briskly as my work ethic should guarantee. Specifically, every time my accomplishments start coming really fast and furious, in a way which is visible to others, the haters come out. I would like to claim I am immune to haters and their low end bottom-feeder tactics, but I’m not.

I do what I do from a place of love. It sounds corny, I know. But, as I’ve said many times in the past, the initial print issues of Blue Blood were in many ways a love letter to the scene I had become a part of. The DC scene of the early 90’s was this vibrant nexus of punk, fandom, and cyber cultures. In that part of the world, we were less concerned with the genre-quibbling of bigger entertainment business cities. Goth-industrial music was identified as sort of a subset of punk there. Knowing who both Gary Gygax and Wendy O. Williams were was a plus.

The city produced both Chemlab and Fifth Column, and Fugazi and Dischord, and Henry Rollins and 21361 Publishing. Although I was born in London and have lived on three continents, in half a dozen countries, and a whole bunch of states, in many ways DC is the city which most created me as an artist and, as an extension of that, created Blue Blood. I knew all these incredible, artistic, fabulously creative people who just needed a venue to showcase their brilliance. And . . .

Release the Bats Nine Year Anniversary
by Amelia G : November 14th, 2007

As I mentioned earlier, Blue Blood has been doing a number of media sponsorships as we move into our fifteenth year and Blue Blood was the media sponsor for the Release the Bats Nine Year Anniversary. It was an amazing evening.

Dave and Jenn Bats were the hosts with the most. DJ Shane Taleda, of Element and STG fame, celebrated his birthday. The band Fangs on Fur did their deathrock meets Burning Man performance. And a good time was had by all.

Luminaries in attendance included Forrest Black, Dahlia Dark, Domiana aka Vita Voodoo, Michelle Aston, Thistle Harlequin, Eva O, Kettle Cadaver, Dave Grave of Frankenstein, and of course yours truly and many many more.

So, of course, Forrest Black and I shot a ton of artistic portraits of a bunch of the fiends who came out to help celebrate. You can see photo galleries at the following links:

Now I am going to go back to watching the minimal television available with the writers’ strike and attempting to eat half an Oreo. I am going to write a new celebrity diet called the Oreo and Flat Ginger Ale Diet.

Whoa creepy. I lost almost 8 pounds this week.

I am so incredibly sick. Food poisoning, stomach flu, not sure what it is, but it sucks really a lot. I’m never going to be able to eat at the raw and organic foods place near me again. Almond butter tastes oddly similar the second time around. I prepaid for a conference this week that I haven’t been able to go to at all too.

Dana Dark‘s daughter Mirabel and Forrest Black were both kitty cats for Halloween this year. Here are a couple of shots from a series Forrest and I did of the eternally beautiful Dana Dark as a vampire. Whole series of course available on BlueBlood.com. This is her 27th BlueBlood.com appearance.

Additional NSFW image after the jump.
