Meet Kecil
Born and raised in Solo, Central Java, Kecil has been tattooing since 1996.
Affectionately known as the master, he has been part of the West Coast Ink family for almost 5 years.
An incredibly diverse artist, there is literally no style in which he doesn’t excel, but if you push him on it he will tell you that Japanese, and big custom projects are his favorite pieces to do, his attention to detail is legendary which also makes him a fantastic realism and fine line exponent.

Meet Badunk!

Badunk first started tattooing back in 2012 before bringing his extensive skills to Bali in 2016.
Attending many of Australia’s expos over the years, he has a huge following both here and in Australia.
One of the most diverse artists we have had the fortune to work with, his favorite styles are realism, neo-traditional and Japanese although Badunk also has a natural flair for color work and free hand, and his ability to cover up almost anything is legendary!
A natural born artist, Badunk is quick and detailed and an absolute pleasure to work with.
