Jovannie sends in a photo of his collection of Filipino related tattoos. You have Noli Me Tangere (look it up if you don’t know what it is), the Philippine map, Philippine Sun, and Baybayin. Not sure what it says though.

On the foto is the guy who did it from ORMOC, BABY REPRESENTING DOWN SOUTH His name is NEIL JOSE.

My first tat at 26…i learned about alibata/baybayin in college. i knew i had to get one. my last name was perfect with it’s very ‘Tagalog’ sound. took me years to decide on where to put it, how big, and what lay out it should have. i figured i’d have it on my left back side going down. i wanted it in brush strokes. the basic idea was all there, but my artist joe did a swell job in putting it all together and adding his own twist. turned out better than i imagined. can’t wait for my next ink.

Cindy from San Diego sends in her photo of RE-YE-S (modified Baybayin) I designed for her about a month ago. Even though the brush strokes are thin, you can see the details. The tattoo artist did a great job. Click here to see how a thick brush stoke looks like.

Philippine Sun & Baybayin

Here’s a Baybayin design I did for Kaleina Kruz from NYC. It’s KA-I-A (her daughter’s name) in the “Philippine Sun” surrounded by flowers. It already looks great with just the outlines. Hopefully she will send an updated photo once filled in.

Al sent in his modern Baybayin tattoo. Looks like Paul Morrow’s Baybayin fonts. Upload your photo or join my.PinoyTattoos.com.
