Sandakan Visit...

Just before my Danum Visit i was at Sandakan, the east coast of Sabah, iI was there to visit my Brother and in the same time to tattoo...i made my mark on a few people..here they are:- the fairy is a cover up...

ANYONE KNOWS WHAT THIS IS????

Here goes......we found a unidentified spider. It has a very strange appearance, it has a cup like thing on its back..it is only active at night and during the day it close up concealing itself like a dead leaf. At first we saw it i could not believe my eyes. If anyone knows the answer please inform us...if not we might be on the verge of discovering a new species of spider...we nickname him or she "transformer" hahahaha...

White Man Return!!!

It been one year and seven month since Daniel Kabubby left Kota Kinabalu. He was here reccentlly dropping by saying "Hi & Helloes" and left his mark once again in KK. Daniel Kabubby is a tattoo artist originally from Rome and had a Tattoo shop called " As tradition Die". He shut it down and began travelling and tattooing everywhere, He does amazing work. i've attached some of his work here.. 1st photo is Franky on Joe's tights and 2nd Photo Bio-Mechanical Actually he was here for the 2nd International Tattoo Convention held in Sibu Sarawak for 3 days from the 30th 0f Jun to 1st of July. I my self did not manage to attend the convention but was happy enough to have meet up with Daniel again. Daniel Kabubby was in in KK for 7 days i think spending most of his time with the "Black Ink Industry" boys...tatooing and partying.. They had fun. For my self..i manage to get this amazing artist to work his magic on me..

Its not finish yet...i still have to do another session of it, when Daniel comes back again next time.. it took him or us 5 hours and 30 minutus until he calls it quits. cause we've been working too much on the skin and its getting stress and when that happens the skin breaks and the tattoo wont be so nice anymore. And it was pretty late...oh sorry its was early morning to be exact. Daniel Kabubby went back home today and promised to be back in December. I am already looking forward to his return.
