Hi from Hong Kong!
Hi guys, i signed up a while ago but usually tend to shy away from introduction threads on forums preferring just to lurk..
Anyway, my name is Mike, i'm from Hong Kong. Tattoo enthusiast, i currently have a half sleeve from beijing artist Yang Zhuo (yztattoo). looking to start my lower leg when money and time allows.
My good friends Rich Phipson and Ross Turpin own and operate Star Crossed Tattoo here in Hong Kong, and they're kind enough to have me always hanging around drawing and shooting the shit.
please check out their stuff at ARTISTS | Star Crossed Tattoo and come hang out and say hi if you're ever in town!
My friend Dust Wu (Horitsuki) just opened a studio, Galaxy Tattoo III, he specializes in Japanese stuff and has been giving me pointers on my drawings. super cool guy. please check out his stuff at https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...1346320&type=3
Electric Pick is also working out of Hong Kong, but you guys are probably already familiar with his stuff. Hong Kong doesn't really have much of a tattoo culture and is still at least 10 years behind the rest of the world, the most popular stuff still being stars, tribal and lettering, but my friends are trying their best every day to push it and put out quality work and hopefully one day it can get to a level like that in the US, UK and Aus.
Anyway, that's a little bit about me and Hong Kong, see you guys around!

Re: Hi from Hong Kong!
Welcome! What part of HK you live in? I stayed in Kowloon back in 1999 and had a blast.
