I found Rey on instagram while looking for an artist to do my sleeve. I compared him with several other big South Florida realism artists with lots of awards in the industry. I liked his style the most as he does a bit more contrast with darker darks compared to some others who tend to keep the entire tattoo fairly light. I’m extremely happy with how it came out. He breaks sleeves into 5 sections. I did the entire sleeve over the course of a week, and hid it from friends, family and the public (with long sleeves) until it was done. I’ve gotten tons of compliments, even from complete strangers just randomly stopping me to ask me about it. Tattoos are an investment for the rest of your life and in my experience you get what you pay for when it comes to tattoo artists. Rey is not cheap, but that’s because he does amazing work and is usually booked up 1-2 months in advance. If you’re looking for a top quality tattoo that you’ll never regret, he is well worth the cost and the wait. I even offered to pay more, and when they said no, I...
Read moreHorrible shop none cares about your project, there all scam artists that lie about amount of work, time and throw random prices out there to rob people. I was told it would take over a full day to put a few empty outlines of some shapes on my leg and would be 1,300$ I said that’s crazy should take 2-3 hours and cost 2-300$ as I ask for another artist he randomly said he would do it for 300$ now. The other artist said he would for 600$ what a joke. What happened to caring about the art and spreading the culture with fair prices. I thought we were a community apparently not anymore tattoo community is a scam now. All real tattoo artists drop a comment to help me out. Response: I would understand that however your supposed artist with his rates said will take him all day and he will charge 1200$ for an outline of a few shapes I said that’s insane and as switching artists he said he could do it for 300$ that’s a big difference and a fast change for “Rates” sounds like scamming to me do it for the art and good customer experience...
Read moreThis tattoo shop atmosphere is unbelievable!!!!! Never seen a shop this nice in my life and more importantly it's VERY VERY CLEAN. I was there for six days and by the time I had to leave to go back home to Maryland I seriously felt that I was leaving family. Someone was always checking on me asking if I was OK or if I wanted something to drink or eat. When I was in search for a tattoo artist it was a long journey. When I saw Rey's Instagram I instantly new that he was the guy, his work is unbelievable and I honestly believe that he is the most talented artist out there. I was willing to fly anywhere in America to get my ink work done by him and that's exactly what I did. I flew from Maryland to Florida to get an arm sleeve done. I knew that it would come out great, what I didn't know was that it would exceed my expectations and Rey gave me an Amazing MASTERPIECE!!! Everywhere I go people stop me and ask me who did my ink work. I will never get a tattoo from anyone else. Can't wait to see my Ink Castle family...
