Supreme Network teacher It was a very engaging performance. Whether it’s just for the sake of the artistry of the tattoos (or to mock some of the more problematic tattoos), the increasingly bizarre flash challenges, the dramatic competition between contestants or the ending. combination of these, it’s a thrilling experience. Great journey.
As fans watch, they tend to pick their favorite artists to cheer for, as well as the artists they definitely don’t want to see in the finale. During its operation, teacher Both to please viewers and annoy them, (like reality TV shows around the world) the undisputed winner takes the crown for several seasons and a more controversial choice. will win in other seasons. Let’s take a look at some of the most valuable honorees, as well as those who probably shouldn’t.
Well-deserved Masters of Ink Award Winner
Klein Rock One (Part 11)
Like most seasons of the show, season 11 offers a unique twist to the concept. Ink Master: Showdown – Klein vs Christian Cleen Rock One and Christian Buckingham, two of the most talented, versatile, and agile competitors, lead a team of artists of their own choosing.
While the two coaches aren’t vying for the title of Ink Master, they have their own ends, where their ultimate goal is to beat each other and win their own $100,000 prize pool. Although Buckingham forbade Klein from tattooing his signature new-school style, he still managed to create a massive, bold, and beautiful piece, a well-deserved victory for Buckingham’s own efforts (although though his later self as a new-school vampire is impressive) – and so is his comfort zone).
Anthony Michaels (season seven)
long time teacher Both the audience and the tattoo artist herself will know how important experience is in this industry. No matter how talented an artist is technically, artistically and otherwise, there are some things that can only be achieved after spending a considerable amount of time putting ink onto the skin.
So contestants and viewers must have underestimated Anthony Michaels of Tucson, Arizona, who has only been tattooed for five years as he enters season seven. The only competitor Ashley Velasquez has too little time in the business. However, Michaels remained solid throughout the game, proving his versatility. In the final, his ambitious dragon chest tattoo won.
Joey Hamilton (Part 3)
Joey Hamilton is the co-owner of Revolt Tattoos in Las Vegas, Nevada. Next to him is Sausage, making the store a force to be reckoned with. It has two teacherAll great men at the helm!
However, unlike Sausage, Hamilton didn’t fall too far behind in the race for the third season. He may have only won “Tattoo of the Day” twice, but he soon established himself as a contender to watch. With a solid presence in each style of tattoo (runner-up Jim Littlewalker leans towards a return to his signature new-school style), Hamilton’s dramatic mermaid and underwater scenes won overall. deservedly.
Josh Payne (Part 10)
talk about Master Mo: Master is back, Which DJ Tambe contestant did he train to win? Josh Payne, that’s the guy.
The New York artist’s confrontational approach angered many opponents (and sometimes members of his team), but unlike some contestants, he always supported the rhetoric with his art. He’s taken on some of the most troubling oil paintings and quirky ideas, but he always executes them fairly and won Tattoo of the Day four times.
Ryan Ashley (Part 8)
In the eighth season, it’s time for the female ink master to take the throne. Fortunately, this was guaranteed in 2016, because Peck vs Nunes The match ended with two women standing: Kelly Doty and Ryan Ashley.
These artists have formed an alliance this season and it’s clearly working. It’s not just politics in the loft: among them, these talented women have won nearly every tattoo of the day (save for the two that Nate Beaver won). Ashley took four of them, a talented and well-rounded artist, and deserves it.
the ink master winner doesn’t deserve it
Scott Marshall (season 4)
Now, there’s no denying that Scott Marshall, who tragically passed away in 2015 at the age of 41, was an accomplished tattoo artist and a valuable asset to the industry. However, for some fans, his brilliance was overshadowed by another competitor in the fourth season, who made it to the final against Marshall, but ended up as runner-up. .
Fan favorite Walter “Sausage” Frank won the “Tattoo of the Day” award four times during the season, the most of any contestant. Along the way, he captivates audiences with his cheerful personality and powerful, subtle, powerful tattoos, letting his work speak for itself instead of getting bogged down in controversies, drama, and pettiness. Kindness often accompanies the loft life.
Jason Clay Dunn (Part 5)
Compared to Anthony Michaels, Jason Clay Dunn is actually the most experienced of the fifth season contestants (with the exception of Mark Longineck, who also joined this season and finished fourth). The couple had been tattooed for two decades when they appeared on the show.
In the end, season five proved to be a real mixed bag. While it’s always gratifying to see the underdog take the lead and win, Dunn pitted Eric Siuda and Cleen Rock One one-of-a-kind in the final. is thrilling throughout, but some teacher The audience felt he didn’t deserve to win.
DJ Tambe and Bubba Irwin, Old Town Ink (Part 9)
And officeseason 9 teacher Opinions are somewhat divided. store war I saw a pair of artists who represented their own studio and named them “Master Mo” and “Master Store”. This season, classic teacher The returning veterans played prolifically, which changed the game.
Bubba Irwin is the first returning veteran to represent Old Town Ink alongside DJ Tambe. While the duo proved to be a formidable team, many other contestants were concerned that the DJ was “carrying” Bubba. DJ continues to be one teacher Legend (trained his own team in Season 10) Master is back and beat Steve Taift’s own team and Anthony Michaels to two straight wins), which led some to question whether Bubba’s return would unfairly weaken many of the franchise’s older teams. commercial rights in general or not. Opportunity.
Dave Crusman (Part 6)
Season six has another twist teacher format, shape is Master’s and Apprenticeships. As both the apprentice and the mentor began to decline, the best in the competition began to rise.
Does Dave Kruseman deserve the top job? As always, opinions are divided on this. For some fans, #2 artist Chris Blinston was the show’s star throughout, while #3 artist Matt O’Baugh didn’t even get to show his Master Composer Opportunity (up). until 35 hours of composition!). As a result, this ending caused a lot of controversy.
Tony Mendling (season 11)
teacher It is always emphasized that the winner must be the best artist in general, someone who is not afraid of any challenge. This is what it means to be an Ink Master.
In theory this is true, but in practice this is not always the case. Like other artists like Sausage, Joey Hamilton, and Ryan Ashley, Tiffer Wright had a stellar 11th season, winning “Tattoo of the Day” five times (making his team a huge hit in the process. This). Advantage). A lot of people thought he was going to win the championship, but he finished third overall. While winner Tony Mendling’s Odin tattoo is awesome and TJ Poole’s black and white tattoo is awesome, third place is a huge injustice to Tifer.
