A wonderful 3 stars and a sun in tribal style is what Marcuz from Indonesia had for us. This tat is on a backdrop of Filipino tribal that was delicately made by Bert of Bertmark in Market-Market Taguig.
Marcuz mean that he is born Filipino and will still choose to be a Filipino. This is a heart melting attitude of him.

At the center of this 3 stars and a sun tattoo are the names Corella and Masangkay. Two people who love and promised to love each other, I guess.
3 stars and a sun not only binds Filipinos, island to island, but also people who found happiness in each other.
This one is from Andrew of New York with Tony Styles as the artist.

Pinoy pride, Shane Chinnock (the bearer) is half-Aussie and half-Filipino. He is a navy from his land. He decided to have this tattoo so he wouldn’t forget his heritage and the values that his Filipina mother brought him up with.
He wear this tattoo in his forearm with a big pride. Actually Shane, you made us proud of you too. Your mother had brought you up very well.

Truly an art! This tattoo is composed of dragon wrapping a cross.
Dragon symbolizes power, strength and strong will. On the other hand, cross symbolizes divinity, religion and spirituality.
Combining, we can say that Karding Satwa of Dubai is a strong Filipino that strongly believed in Almighty God. He can do all things through Christ who gives him strength.

The image shows the tribal tattoo of Michael Valdez from Milpitas, CA. It covered his arm and chest and he plans to extend it around his back to his whole arms.
