A fork of lightning flashes in the sky, casting onto the ground the shadow of a street light that will never shine again.
After to shots of Demerol and 3 shots Lidacain in the foot, the doctor grabbed my foot and yanked this piece of wood out. It's 4" long, and half of it was in my foot.
Master Splinter - In the original comics, Splinter was the pet rat of a ninja named Hamato Yoshi in Japan. Intelligent for his species, Splinter was able to learn his master's art by mimicking his movements while he practiced.
Yoshi became embroiled in a dispute with a fellow ninja by the name of Oroku Nagi and was eventually murdered.
Years later Oroku Saki, the brother of the man he had killed came to the city to start and founded a branch of the Foot Clan and in his new disguise, the Shredder tracked down and killed both Yoshi and Shen (wife) in cold blood.
Additionally in the 1990 film, Splinter escapes from his cage during the murder, and attacked Saki, clawing at his face, while Saki sliced his ear off. It is suggested this mutilation is the reason Saki took the Shredder disguise to hide the scars.
Without a home, Splinter was forced to run away and live in the New York City sewers.
Due to a traffic accident, four baby turtles and a canister of radioactive ooze were sent down into the sewer, where the ooze mutated both Splinter and the turtles.
He awoke the next morning to the see that both he and the turtles had doubled in size, all of them were also growing intellect soon learning to walk upright. The turtles followed him everywhere except to the surface but one day he received a shock, one of the turtles spoke the word "Splinter" and in doing so named him. In turn, out of battered renaissance art book he found in a storm drain, Master Splinter gave them the names Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael.
He decided to train the turtles in the art of Ninjitsu with the intention of one day charging them with the mission to avenge his master's death.
When the turtles were old enough Splinter told his sons of his master Yoshi and of their true origin. Now that he was old and believed not long for the world he asked that the turtles track down and kill the Shredder.

Freehanded from the masking diagrams in the instructions. I used 6mm Tamiya tape fot the fiddlier edges, and various panels and details as reference points.

From a recent client shoot.
This young boy was jumping around in the sand dunes with his sister, and managed to get a splinter. We had to stop for about fifteen minutes while his parents tried to remove it. In the end I was the one who got it out. :) My wife tells me I have superior splinter-removing abilities. Who knew?
While I was waiting, I kept shooting. I thought this outtake was quite nice.
strobist info: Two SB-20s set to either 1/2 or full, in a silver umbrella, camera left. Setting sun to camera right.

There they are. All four of them. Decals were made by Izzymartin127, weapons and helmets by BrickArms, and painting done by me.

=CaptainMatt=: I saw your Wermacht in splinter camo, compared them to my old crappy ones, and based my newer, better ones off yours.
Brickly Blitzkrieg Customs: You make great figures and I thought I would have to try to make one at your standards.
MR. Jens: I loved your work from the beginning. 'Nuff said.
Feel free to tag yourself if there is room left.
Splintered tree stump in Stoven Wood in the snow.
Nothing complex, just liked the little bit of colour really.

Remains of the ~140 ft schooner CHINA, which wrecked near Tobermory, Ontario, Canada in November 1883. She was enroute from Buffalo to Parry Sound when she became disabled by a snowstorm and driven ashore on what is now called "China Reef"
you birthed me with splinters under my skin.
every time i move, i prick my hands
seeping blood, turns from blue to red,
whisper to my shaky limbs, i'll never win
i took rubbish fotos today but jai saved the day by getting a great big splinter in her foot - i like nothing more than playing doctor and operating on a patient (and maybe taking advantage of a foto opportunity). so my patient patiently waited for me to record this momentous moment before she bravely allowed me to remove the splinter - it was a beast i'm sure you'll agree.
here comes the chilly winter,
fast as a sturdy sprinter,
the trees stand tall,
at the end of fall,
and leaves tossed as orphan splinters.

The United States has a military presence in two-thirds of countries around the world, and some of them have had enough. A group of terrorists calling themselves The Engineers initiate a terror ultimatum called the Blacklist - a deadly countdown of escalating attacks on U.S. interests.
Though it doesn't look like much, this thorn tip was embedded in my right thumb pad for half a year. I coundn't see it, and I couldn't get it out. Finally I decided to spend a couple of hours in the bath and dig around with a needle and some lignocaine.
First I found two tiny fragments well up bathed in seurum and a blob of white blood cells, but something told me there was something bigger ... deeper. Eventually squeezing, working the area, I saw a shadow beneath the pressure whitened cells. It was my reluctant quarry, I persisted until it was finally free. Within a couple of weeks the thickened skin reabsorbed, and I had full function and sensation back. Two hands! two thumbs!
Perhaps I should of gone to a GP to get an ultrasound earlier, but I'm just glad its over, it too easy to shy away from the things we must.
