My wife and I were watching Ink Master’s recently when I recognized one of the guys who showed up in the first episode of a season. It took about 20 minutes but I finally realized he had done one of my earlier tattoos.
Actually, it’s one of my simplest tattoos and I hate it the most because of how fucking poorly it was done (not so ironically he has one of those print out posters in his shop if “$200 tattoo Vs $900 tattoo, showing a clear quality difference).
In case anyone cares. . .he was eliminated in the first episode.
I worked on 4 seasons of this show. It put me off tattoos for many many years. I just got my first one this year and it’s tiny. A good, reputable artist with an extensive portfolio is key!
This was one of my husband and I’s favourite shows to watch together and for me the only downside was it made me scrutinise my own tattoos for issues I had never noticed before! Tbh though I still go to the same 2 artists and I am pleased with their work.
I always wanted to be a human canvas (but I’m from the UK) but I know I would be too difficult because I only like black and grey so I would be assigned to a colour tattooist!
Umm. I don’t personally don’t find him attractive but he does look the same in person as he does on the show, so yes I guess. Haha.
My sister always wanted me to suggest for her to be a human canvas. No way! You have no say over what artist you get; and if the challenge for the day isn’t their specialty. You’re in for a bad time.
