Miami is pretty far from Orlando. If you're traveling for the tattoo, I would suggest against FL and maybe instead go somewhere like CA or some of the other places with great artists of your style.

I'm most familiar with the Tampa area but I know a few others on here may have some Orlando suggestions.

Cheers, i didn't actually know it was that far. Thats the problem with living in such a small country.

im open for all suggestions.

If you want underwater realism then try Deano Cook (GA) or Mike Parsons (FL).

If you want good Japanese you should go to New York or Los Angeles. Of course you might find someone tattooing in obscurity somewhere else in the country that's good too.

i would try tim hendricks in miami florida

in salt water tattoo http://www.saltwatertattoo.com/tattooin ... arren.html

if im not mistaken i think thats darren from miami ink

so if he goes there im guessing he is good?

he does more traditional, but it wouldnt hurt to email him and see what he can pull off, might make it different then regular japanese or im pretty sure he will send you to the right person

good luck

Phil Holt at redletter1 in Tampa, Florida is an awesome artist , killer Japanese work. Don't know how long he will be in Florida for tho, heard he is trying to sell his house so he can move back to San Francisco.
