If you're in the server, feel free to zit-in 😆

Here's some more recent tokens I did recently for my Gubat Banwa PCs for a game that I'm UM-ing!

*Javanese AND Balinese, sorry
- And that Kawayanon femme is sporting the predecessor of tattoos in the PH, the practice of scarification (mostly found amongst the Aeta, Agta or Dumagat people)
-They also sport a gumamela in their hair, the local name for hibiscus. 🧵
