bay! tanuud ba na itum gyud color sa mga tatu naa uban na blue man daw gyud tama color, rehas sa mga Igorot na tattoo makita nimo na dark blue color sa ilang batik!

[bisaiia]

@Akopito The Visayan tattoos it is not the same as the igorot tattoos, they are very different from us Visayans. Plus most of them do not know how to swim. ahahaha

[Akopito]

@bisaiia . ya I was preferring to color tone. the Igorots has blue colored tattoo.. but I never seen a Visayan tattoo though thats why I'm asking , I also heard color red or yellow on Visayan tattoo.. but that was on the forum, instead of real recorded accounts..

[bisaiia]

@Akopito NO!! NO!!! there is no such thing as red or yellow Visayan tatoo, not even in the recorded accounts. People that said that are trying to destroy Visayan culture, History and heritage. but I know who has the red and yellow color tattoos, the faggot filipinos that wanna be Visayan, but not the Visayan. see the guy that is on that Video that is Prince Geleo, a Visayan Prince who got abducted and thrown into slavery and end up in England and died there in England.

[Akopito]

@bisaiia - kinsa mana imung ginaisgut na ginoong Geleo? wa lagi ko naka basa ana na Ginoo na ginabihag padohng sa lain malayo na bansa..

[bisaiia]

@Akopito During the ancient times we are the only well known tatooed people by the spaniards. thats why the spiniards called the Visayans pintados.

[iBIsaya]

@Akopito - hello Akopito tanuod na Color DARK BLUE atong tattoo atong kinaadto panahona.. naa pud hapit na BLACK pud...

[Akopito]
