The renowned tattoo artist, better known as Murino, wowed the crowds with his incredible skills in Japanese-style tattooing, creating a stunning piece inspired by the mythical Kirin Rider.

Murino shared some insights into his creative process and the techniques he used to create this incredible tattoo.

Murino’s attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the tattoo, from the careful positioning of the characters to the intricate details that are so representative of traditional Japanese tattoos.
To create this piece, Murino used FK Irons tattoo machines, Round liner needles, and Magnum Fusion pigments. As the tattoo was a large piece, he decided to start with one character before moving on to the second and finally adding the intricate details that make this tattoo so breathtaking.
But Murino’s talents extend beyond just his technical abilities. He is also a gifted storyteller, using his tattoos to convey powerful messages and emotions. The Kirin Rider tattoo, for example, is a symbol of good fortune and prosperity in Japanese culture, and Murino’s interpretation captures this essence perfectly.
