Ashlee of Australia shared to us this tattoo image of his boyfriend Paul. According to her, his boyfriend is a Filipino and his tattoo design is a tribute for his Filipino culture.
As you can see, Paul’s tattoo has a Philippine Sun and the words “Filo Pride” at the middle. He shortened the word “Filipino” into “Filo”.

“Proud to be a Filipino” is the precise message of this tattoo by NJ of Italy. This is another 3 Stars and a Sun with three letters (NJP) in the middle that stands for his initials.
More and more Filipinos are proving their being nationalist and their love for the Philippines by etching symbols on their skins. These are symbols that represent the country like what you’ve seen in NJ’s tattoo.
You can see more of these symbols on the late blogs and on our upcoming articles. So keep on reading!

Different culture and different races, this is what this tattoo of Anthony Garcia is all about. Looking closely, around his shoulder and arm are the Philippine 3 Stars and a Sun, Polynesian tribal and Old English letter “G” that stands for his surname.
This one was made by Kiko Arceo of Island Ink & Dennis Mata’afa of Sacred Center Tattoo.

After the long wait, Jobeng Castro of Davao City finally came up with this Ambigram tattoo style of his family name. Even if you turn it upside down, you will still come up with the word “Castro” and that’s the magic of Ambigram.
Jobeng is planning to have another tattoo with Baybayin fonts by the end of the year. Sure it will be a very good one. Tattoo fanatics should try it too!
In Good Times and in Bad Times

Filipinos used to smile in good times and in bad times. This is the meaning of Vince Talde’s tattoo.
If you will look closely, you will see a lot of image in this Philippine map tattoo including a man’s face, mask and more. Study the tattoo and I’m sure you will also see something.
Vince would like to thank Leo Roque of L and T tattoo for this marvelous job!
