Donny Manco's New Republic

FreddyRay is the man. Thats all I have to say

Very professional!  Can't wait to go back and get my 2nd tattoo!

Donny Manco's is, in my opinion, one of the highest-quality tattoo establishments in Fort Wayne and the surrounding area. The artists, Donny Manco, Dominick Manco, Dusty Neal, Freddy Ray, and Nate Click, are all very professional and talented guys.

As an LA resident, there are a helluva lot of tattoo places I could have gone to to get my first half-sleeve tattoo. The problem? Not only are they insanely expensive or have a waiting list for the next year, but I don't know them and therefore don't trust them. When getting such a large tattoo, trust should be a huge element in picking the artist. So, I thought about who I would trust to do my tattoo and one name (other than Kat Von D) came to mind. Donny Manco's artist Dusty Neal.

I'd been hearing great things about Dusty Neal for the past couple years, so I felt like I could trust the guy to do a great job. And he did. He does all custom work, so you will never have a tattoo that looks like someone else's. He explained everything in detail, made sure I knew exactly what I was getting into, made sure I knew how to take care of my tattoo after he was finished. He's also been really great with not charging me more than I was ready for. He quoted me for 4 hours and worked 5, but didn't charge me for the 5th hour. Nice guy.

Donny Manco's is a clean, well-kept studio. Everything looks legit because it is legit. The artists are friendly and welcoming. They're willing and ready to explain anything you don't understand and armed with the knowledge to answer any questions or quell any concerns you may have.
