An Australian Instagram model who has spent $25,000 on tattoos - including getting her eyeballs inked - has stunned her followers by revealing what she looking like before her passion for body modifications kicked off. Check out Amber talk about her body modifications below: [[jwplayerwidget||https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/TDPciQbu-Q0L14jDU.mp4||TDPciQbu]] Amber Luke - a 24-year-old model and social media star from New South Wales' Central Coast in Australia - recently held a Q&A with her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ambs_luke/">80,000 Instagram fans</a>. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/B_CMLghj5tP/]] Unsurprisingly, one follower asked to see what Luke - who also goes by the social media handle Blue Eyes White Dragon -  looked like before going under the tattoo needle.

She told <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-6745239/Amber-Luke-reveals-10-year-transformation-spending-15-000-body-modifications.html">Daily Mail</a> last year: "Back when I was 14, I didn't know who I was or what I wanted from life. I was catatonic and couldn't see what was best for me. I was naive. But I now have a backbone and I can stand up for what I believe in. I also have the confidence to look however I want too." [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu1U-6HhOvD/]] But Luke's dedication to her love of body art has come with some negatives, revealing that she was left blind for three weeks after getting her eyeballs inked. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/B-vZ4YpjgCE/]] Speaking to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-5815591/Amber-Luke-23-shares-transformation-getting-10-000-body-art.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Daily Mail Australia</a>, the 24-year-old described the procedure as "very intense and very painful", detailing that her eyes were held open as a syringe was injected into each eye four times. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/B-yscUjD29I/]] In a subsequent interview the Mail last year, Amber said her extreme look is often met with mixed responses from people in the street. She said: "I gained a lot of support and positive vibes from complete strangers - there was always the few nasty opinionated ones who try to make you feel inadequate, but I never let them get to me." And addressing the negative comments she receives, Luke added: "If you're reading this and you have nothing nice to say? Don't say it at all. You never know what a person's going through in their personal lives, be kind. "I'm not harming anyone in the process, I'm doing what I want to do and if it makes me get up in the morning and be a happy person, then so be it."
