CURRUPTIO OPTIMI PESSIMA - im planning on having this tattoed on my back. wanted to put some words on the banner. "CORRUPTIO OPTIMI PESSIMA" means "Corruption of the best is the worst". I'm going political on all yer asses yo!
NUNO sa punso. this is how i imagine they look like. like some pissed off old dude ready to go medieval on your ass. in some stories if you piss on their home (a small mound near a tree) they will use magic on you...like make your balls 30 lbs each. imagine doing shit while carrying that. moral of the story? piss right, sleep tight...coz no creepy old dude's gonna inflate your nuts... unless they get a kick out of it for no reason.
TIKBALANG - The TIKBALANG, another Filipino mythological creature. they are reverse centaurs...they have the head of a horse and the body of a man. They ain't that scary in my opinion...and lets be honest you don't go around bragging,"DUDE! I'M HUNG LIKE A MAN!". Horses and centaurs would be laughing and crying at the same time...and guess who would be laughing the hardest? the centaur that has the head and body of Vin Diesel and lower half of a warhorse...now that's ass rapin scary!
MANANANGGAL - The MANANANGGAL. a sort of shapeshifter and body splitter?...can be the village slut by day then be a fuck-ugly-flying-baby-eater by night. she's one evil beeyotch...she eats BABIES for craps sake. but one can kill her as stupidly as possible. just look for her lower half then just go "Jamie Oliver" with that shit. but i suggest one should do something before putting herbs and spices on that ass...like...ride a double bike? yeah thats it...ride that shit all day! then marinade it when your done.
KAPRE - The KAPRE. A giant-like creature who smokes a lot... for lack of better description, he's like Brock Lesnar and Shaq's love child with Colin Farrel's lungs.
BIG, BIGGER and BADDEST .my interpretation of THE FOOD CHAIN. the gorilla here aint vegetarian. he's so badass he'll eat anything he wants...except for the monster behind him glaring like a fat kid glares on a big mac.
Grinning demon - something i drew and inked using DONG-A gel pen and Apache Pentel. hehe basic shit.
Bakunawa - Bakunawa, a Filipino Dragon. Local legends says that it's so big that it rises from the sea to swallow the moon, hence the eclipse. It spits the moon out after Bathala (Filipino Chief Deity) lays the smackdown on him.
