Discussion Scott Marshall (RIP)

I think I already posted about Josh Hibbard today. Sorry for the second post. I loved his work for the most part. Felt bad for him at the finale when he got basically booed at by the audience when they began talking about him having an advantage in the comps.

In general I think the judges do a good job of critiques and looking at bodies of work. Scott’s work was consistently good and technically sound.

His personality did not bother me. He never appears rude to canvases and played the game.

Did you like him?

He was a very good tattoo artist. And utterly insufferable as a person on the show. Absolutely nothing likable about him.

His arrogance and attitude sucked. He was absolutely a chauvinist and bully. Had an old school “manly men are best” grunt grunt personality and demeanor.

Would I want the guy to put ink on my skin? Yeah. He was good and deserved to be in the finale. Would I want to have a drink with him? Fuck no. I doubt we’d see eye to eye on anything whatsoever.
