Tattoo Monkey Southampton
Tattoo Monkey is a new studio, opening above the Reskue Skate store. We were approached by the guys to help paint the walls. With Alfa's distinctive tattoo style,
it was a no brainer to get him down.
Keep an eye out for more commissions down south as Monorex artists come down to make their mark.

Southampton Final
A huge congratulations to Gustav for winning his second Secret Wars Final and a massive shout out to Rem 1 DNK for reaching the finals.
It was another great night with everyone out in support. A big shout out to the Say Whoa guys for taking care of the entertainment downstairs. Check out their blog and the parties they put on. I'm sure they'll be in an area near you, very soon!

A big thanks to Jimi C for hosting and of course Reeps 1, who pulled out all the stops. There was one point where I thought he wasn't going to finish. Not that I was complaining or anything, but it had been a long day and I've only just bought one of those memory foam mattresses. So really wanted to test it out.
Back to the report: With Rem 1 winning the crowd vote and Gustav winning the first Judges vote (Pascal UCLA Designer) it was all down to Andy from Reskue - who as you know chose Gustav.
After claiming his cheque, he announced he'll be retiring from Secret Wars, meaning Rem 1 DNK takes his spot in the London series. We're all expecting big things from him. So keep an eye out for him.
Again thanks to all the artists that took part, Edding pens who never get tired of my emails, the Soul Cellar and Reskue.
If you're interested in entering series 3, please send examples of wort to southampton@secretwars.co.uk
Oh and a big thanks to Cascade photography for the sweet pics

Pykee Vs Rem 1 DNK Semi-Final
Before I say anything, congratulations Pykee for being the first female artist to reach a Secret Wars semi-final.
Tonight we would find out who would be the next finalist to face Gustav. Even he was there to check out the competition. The Basingstoke massive showed up in force to support Pykee and Rem 1, who had impressed the crowd during his previous battle had a few fans in the crowd.
Both artists battled hard, and by the end it looked pretty even. But in the end both judges voted in favour of Rem 1 DNK.
Congratulations to both artists, see you all at the final!!

London Vs Southampton SW Special
It was a night to remember as Secret Wars went back to The Orange Rooms in Southampton for a one off special. Alfa and Teck were responsible for showing what London was made of, whilst Gustav and Brighton favourite Jeeba, were trusted to do away with the tourists.
There was a lot going on outside as Jimi C and Mr K painted panels outside, which were auctioned off at the end of the night....in fact there are still some panels available, so if you're interested, hit us back on southampton@secretwars.co.uk.
Anyway, back to the battle, it was great, both sides worked hard and afterwards, Teck played harder. The crowd vote naturally went to the home side, but both judges, Neil from the Orange Rooms and Andy from Southampton's Independent Skate Store 'Reskue' both voted in favour of London!!
So congrats to the guys - That makes it 1 - 1. See you again soon!!
A big thanks to Kyle for all his help, Neil for looking after everyone and of course, Reskue for supplying the paint. Check out their online store at http://www.reskue.co.uk/

Ain't no stopping the G man!
Reining Champion Gustav seems to be unstoppable. As the winner of Series 1, I was hoping, wishing, someone would be able to knock him out and it was looking like Vents could be that someone. Both artists made sure they went all out.
There was a great crowd in attendance, all wondering who would make it to the final. In the end judges Andy from Reskue Skate Store and Dexter from Orange Rooms both voted in favour of Gustav. The crowd helped make it 3-0.
A big shout out to Vents and Good luck to Gustav in the final
