Tako Theif

To encompass everything Japanfluece, IS KID9!

I can see so much Japan-Love in this piece, Tako Theif its perfection! The colours, the style, the monsters, the tako, the pattern... :)

Gorgeous shot by Michael D'Andrea Diaz

The perspective and the composition is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing this one Michael! :)

As seen in the Japanfluence Group on RedBubble.

Mike Shinoda, of Linkin Park

Still stunningly buzzing from last night's Linkin Park concert, I thought I would ride the wave, and highlight the fine sir that is featured on the sidebar over there.

Mike Shinoda used to have some awesome pieces on skateboard decks, but they all sold out :( but more cool stuff can be seen here. A site I like to keep my eye on!

This piece is titled "Persona Non Grata"

Samurai

Again not so much info about this one, found on an irish blog!

Love the movement and power of this, and the textures are stunning

I had to put this, as an ode to John Brack, Collins St at 5pm.
Shinjuku at Midnight?

Such colour and energy, you can see how you can be under the influence!

Heavenly Sword

I don't know much about this game, but I do know that is some of the greatest hair I've ever seen!!

This is the main character, Nariko, who's name means Hard Working Child, in Japanese.
