Well. I have decided that I want to get a half-sleeve on my right upper arm. I know for sure that I won’t have the funds before at least the end of the year, but I am researching design ideas for inspiration. I have found a few pictures online that are along the lines of what I’d like to get. I definitely want something Star Wars themed, mostly if not completely focused on Stormtroopers (possibly with the Death Star, Darth Vader, the Imperial insignia, etc). I would also like more traditional elements included, which is there the roses come into play.

I am considering going to the same artist (Scott from Blue Devil Tattoo in Ybor, FL) who did my Wonder Woman tattoo- he did an excellent job, the atmosphere was good, and I feel pretty confident in his abilities. That being said, are there highly recommended shops in the Tampa/Orlando area that I should check out?

Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to throw all of this together. Thanks in advance. 🙂

Love the detail in that one. I saw it when I was browsing but I figured if I posted every Star Wars tattoo that I like, this thread would never end. 😛

Litos and Dee Dee Seruga come to mind in Florida, though I don’t know exactly where either of them is in the state. Frank LaNatra is great choice also and out of the three, I think he is most suited to what you’re looking for.

I actually live really close to Litos and Dee Dee. That’s definitely worth checking out- thanks!

Wow, I agree. Frank’s work is amazing and it’s definitely close to the style that I want. Awesome, he’s only four hours away from me- would definitely be worth the drive. 😀

I’m kind of unsure about how to approach setting something up with him. I’ll be in Davie, FL within the next few months- would it be cool to just stop by the shop and tell him I want to set up an appointment, explain my idea, give him a deposit, etc.? I would prefer to speak with him in person. I don’t have any experience with actually setting a tattoo appointment. Mine have always been walk-ins.

Just email him or hit him up on facebook. He is very approachable but to press your luck on just swinging by he may be tattooing someone and not be able to talk to you. You can work out most things with him online then set up a time with him to talk about it.
