April did my most recent tattoo and she's really sweet in person and I'm really happy with what I got from her. I have fibromyalgia and she was really cool about getting me through the pain. The Dane you see giving the sound bytes seems pretty true to what I know of him from seeing him buzz around the shop.

Their alliance makes me cringe a little though.

I loved when Nunez said I've tattoo'd a lot of asses. No matter how saggy it is you curl them up and make them tight. Sage advice.

I didn't like Black Cobra's girls' face at all, I'd much rather wear the slightly jacked leg cowgirl than the cop.

Also I love my rear end tattoo so much more now, sorry & many thanks to the artist who rocked it on my saggy butt.

Golden Skull Tattoo. If he doesn't make the finale again, that'd be pretty embarrassing.

I'd say I disagree with the judges on this show more than any other reality TV but they really blew it with that first pick of the four horsemen teams. The losing teams' tattoos were metal! The others looked like Hagar the Horrible four horsemen. And I think the judges blew it in the final one as well but they can't send Cleen home yet(ever?).

And many props to Christian calling the twist, a rare actual display of strategy among the garbage alliance drama, I thought at least one other team would follow his lead.

Man, they do this at least once a season. It's all about the tattoo of the day, until that time teams are dwindled down and they pick out the one that won't go much further. Not that they're wrong about Allegory, but if you go on performance of the day, I think Bubba & DJ should have gone.

Who do you think is going to win at this point? I think top 3 is Golden Skull, Basilica and Black Cobra. This season it really feels like Cleen and Matt can do no wrong so far but Aaron is going to drag Cleen down.

Also Katie really seems pissed about skipping the flash challenges for someone who basically does jack poo poo during them.

The canvas' choice theme this episode was pretty good. I can see how it could get old (especially with people like that "my shop did a back piece in 4.5 hours" guy) but I hope they do it more.

I really, really didn't want to see Empire State go, though I understand why.

It's the big question that comes up every single year: at what point is it about report cards, if ever? They've sent people home on poor report cards and they've sent people home on poor tattoos that day. They've never been consistent with it.

That being said, I thought for sure they would keep Cleen. Although I hate to admit it, those hands are the biggest flaw that stands out among the set, even with the wonky anatomy on Black Cobra's. It's not a little flaw either, as Oliver pointed out, so they're pretty justified in being sent home. Nunez was trying real hard to keep them, that's for sure, but they did it to themselves.

In Cleen and Aaron's defense there's a bunch of statues with the thumbs facing that way. They actually met the challenge and drew a deity instead of a mask with some flags and it looked like what it was supposed to be, instead of sun goddess in what looked like moonlight.

I could be a little biased because of how much I hate Katie. She talks like she's gargling asphalt and she and Matt are seriously butthurt about everything that doesn't go their way.

Black Cobra definitely made a smart move by not telling Golden Skull that they drew the hands backwards but on the other hand the canvas who got that tattoo would be totally justified in being pissed off that they didn't say anything when they could have. Now they're stuck with wonky hands Buddha for life.

bitchymcjones posted:

Yeah but given that they've probably been drawing hands on a daily basis for a decade now they really should know how they look. Professional artists shouldn't be loving up basic human anatomy that badly.




Also when Peck waxes his moustache tips so they curve in it always makes him look like a tamarin monkey. :v:

This is the thing that annoys me about this show. Someone has a lovely tattoo with backwards hands now because Katie and Matt wanted a competitive edge and the show's format rewards that. To me, an "ink master" wouldn't sit back and laugh while someone gets a bad tattoo, they should have the integrity and professionalism to say "hey, this design needs to be fixed before you start putting in the line work".

Unkindness would be extremely lucky to make the finale, much less win the competition. I see it as Black Cobra placing third, and then a toss up between Basilica and Old Town. Consider that Old Town was the first returning shop and has survived since week 2, and they've had ups and downs, but proven their merit. If not Cleen, I'd think Christian is the favorite to win, but Old Town's definitely got a strong shot.

Dooms hot rod was such a plain piece, I don't know what he was thinking. DJ and Bubba really earned it. Their work was way better than Unkindness.

I can only hope Christian "gets robbed" at the finale again, what a douche that guy.

The hot rod was like a child's color book. It had nothing to it. Sort of feel bad for Erin because she had to carry Doom Kitten. Amazed that got to the final four.


I'm happy with the final three teams. I'll root for Old Town Ink.

Good past few episodes. All action. Really goes to show they tattoo a lot better when there is a real reward(safety, finale appearance) rather than the attaboy "tattoo of the day". If they'd just throw in a grand or two for elimination tattoos every week I think there would be more swings for the fences. ANYWAY.

The producers hosed up allowing two teams in and Black Cobra should've won the finale appearance alone. Then we would've seen some real sparks fly. I mean look at DJ and Christian bicker prior to judging and Christian is already in the finale. Missed opportunity.

I like Matt. I find his eye rolls, squints and exhaustive sighs to most match my feelings when it comes to the judges' comments.

Christian coming through with the spoilers on Twitter. It was only a few minutes before it was announced, but still.

I hope Old Town wins. DJ and Bubba have really earned it. DJ is definitely the better artist of the two but Bubba is working so hard.

I've never watched this show prior to this season but I recorded the old season reruns along with this season and binge watched everything over a few weeks. I like to pause and look over the tat myself before judging begins to see what I catch and what I don't. Chris Nunez is sometimes so on point and catches little details that I would have missed; and sometimes he goes off on some crazy rant that doesn't make any sense at all. He also seems to not give any fucks about the actual challenge or being consistent. It's as if the show editors mixed up his comments with the wrong tattoo. Or maybe he's literally insane. I don't know. Oliver Peck is more consistent but only has about 3 adjectives in his vocabulary. Those lines are jacked. Those hands are jacked. That leg is jacked. He's not wrong, but drat dude get a thesaurus.
