Ink Master On Spike TV

Ink Master is a Tattoo competition where 16 talented tattoo artists compete against each other for $100 thousand dollars!!  And to be the "Ink Master" The show consists of extreme tattoo challenges that really push these artists to create  impressive original tattoos on their living canvasses . It is hosted by rocker Dave Navarro and judged by two legends in the tattoo world Oliver Peck and Chris Nunez!

These Tattoo artists have several challenges throughout the season and what these challenges do is tests their technical skills, and their creativity. At times throughout the competition they might get people who are tattoo virgins or they might get people who want to cover up a bad tattoo.

My favorite part of the show is when they are being judged because they stand behind their creations even when the judges are harsh about the tattoo they have created. I think it makes them work harder on the next challenge. Some of the artists creations are amazing and some are not so good. But I really have to give them props for getting on the show and trying. I know I couldn't do it. But I think it's truely a talent to be able to do these beautiful tattoos!

My favorite artists on season 2 would have to be Katherine Flores "tatu baby" (for her raw talent as an artist) and Sarah Miller ( for the hilarious drama) Actually she is an awesome tattoo artist! She was the runner up for that season. The winner of season 2 was Steven Tafft who created several incredible tattoos. Take a look at his work here!
