This is the recent tattoo job that Christan Cabuay did and designed for Reggie of California.

Baybayin script was used and Reggie really loved this one. Well in fact, he left a message for Christian and he said, “I just wanted to say thank you for all the work and time you have put into my piece. Every time I look at it I can’t believe that I have it on my arm, Everyone that has seen it can’t believe how good it looks . It is probably one of the best tattoos design I have ever seen, and I don’t say that just because it’s on my arm. you are an amazing artist and I am honored to have you as my tattoo artist designer. Maraming Salamat Chistian.“

Christopher of Linda Vista had this tattoo that means “Knowing Your Roots”. The images on his tattoo basically means his homeland. You can see the Philippine map, Philippine 3 Stars and a Sun and the Earth.

This tattoo also means that even if he is in other country, nothing beats his homeland.

But Christopher has a real meaning for his tattoo..” It’s not what you know, but where you come from.”

My Tribe…..Philippines

Poty — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:00:37 +0000

“Proud to be and I’m not hiding it!”, a message from Allan of St. Pete, Florida along with his inspired by virtual game tattoo. His tattoo is a Philippine spaceship with 3 Stars and a Sun. Looking closely, you can see the Philippine Island inside the sun which greatly represents the country.

A very inspiring one especially to those who are virtual gamers. This one will make you think that Filipinos are very competitive and reigning even in the virtual world. And this is also one way of being nationalistic. Nowadays, even a three year old kid knows how to play computer games. We will not be surprised if one day Filipinos are among those whom what we call “Game Masters.” So keep the spirit, represent your country, fight for your country and be proud of it!

Filipino Style and 3 Stars & a Sun

Poty — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:00:04 +0000

If you want to see a Filipino style tattoo, then you have to see this one by Jay-Are Chy of Moreno Valley, Ca. It is literally with “Filipino Style” text and another version of 3 Stars and a Sun. The sun, which is in the center, is composed of the three colors of the Philippine flag (red, blue and white).

Jay-Are has only one meaning for his tattoo and it is “THE FILIPINO PRIDE.” So, just like him, be proud and do the Filipino style around the world.
