DIEGO MORALES - ALICANTE, SPAIN

Diego Morales is an Argentine tattoo artist who lives and works at his own shop "Fusion Tattoo" in Alicante, SPAIN. We met him and his wife Fatima while doing a seminar in Castellon, Spain at a tattoo convention. He and his wife have become really great friends and business associates. They distribute our machines in Spain and set up yearly machine seminar tours for us. Pictured here is one of his machines. This one is ALL hand made. Lots of cutting and filing, coil winding, finishing. He is known for his precision and eye for details. His tattooing is great too.

Look at the craftsmanship. The insulation, the care he took to shrink the coils and polish the binding posts... this is a quality product made by an artist who TRULY knows his trade inside and out.

Their devotion to the art is priceless. From the quality of their (Diego and Fatima) work and shop's presentation, to the meticulous precision of his machine's construction and the belief in educating tattooers world wide, these people deserve recognition globally.

Sulim Yamadaev. Mysticism chechen.

Once wrote on the blog about the murder of Sulim Yamadaev.

И вот недавно все СМИ России или почти все раструбили новость о том что Сулим Ямадаев жив и даже выложили его фотографию. Вот она



Recently almost all of the Russian media revealed that Sulim Yamadaev is alive and even showed his photo. Here it is:



The photo doesn't appear to be a fake or doctored. Before this photo, there was another photo of Sulim circling the net.

But the interesting fact is that the killers of Sulim were sentenced to life in prison, even though Sulim is still alive. I myself believed that something was amiss. There was never a body found. His brother Isa revealed that Sulim is alive just after 2 days of the news of his death. I'm interested how all this will end

PS:Since 1996, Sulima Yamadaev, the most conservative estimates, there were some 19 attempted murder.

NEW ARTIST - "FESTER" STARTING AT SHOP

Armando "Fester" Castruita, is starting at the shop today. Great artist and friend. I've known him for many years from attending tattoo conventions in Mexico. He is a great talent, and we're stoked to have him in with us. He and Juan used to work together in Fester's shop "Ninety Nine Tattoo" in the city of Celaya in Mexico. He can do any style of tattooing... with his eyes closed!

His schedule is not yet set, it will be in the next few days. Come by and check his portfolio out or just tell him "welcome"!
