Ink Masters

i almost want to go and watch it.

He had a very pained look on his face. I think he was definately expecting something (anything) better.

Much like the rest of us . . .

He looked pissed off. I could almost picture the word "mockery" in a thought bubble over his head.

That episode was really painful to watch. I just don't get how some of these people on this show keep saying, "Well, you're not seeing my best" when clearly they're incapable of listening and taking in criticism and putting that feedback into their work. Poor Rubendall, I bet he still has nightmares from this experience. Wtf at that dragon!

[Hogrider]

I hope they are providing free lazer removal! I can't believe they kept letting those knuckleheads pollute peoples skin with that crap.

Yeah but people presumably saw the tattoos from season one and still wanted to be on the show so basically everybody involved is a knucklehead.

Interesting to see the "tattooers with no tattoos" debate revived on the show last night. Forrest really read that guy the riot act. Definitely see his point tho.

[Idahoink]

yay!! Dave Navarro is a tattoo judge now! Next I heard he is going to be judging dancers on Dancing With the Stars.

zzzzzzz

With all of the talk about Jesse no having tattoos, I didn't even notice that dude didn't have any at all.

[smiling.politely]

Jesse has some sort of chest tattoo that tries to make it into daylight when he has a few undone buttons, and i think something on the bottom of his chin. if i recall he has a couple on his legs as well. but, i do agree that at this point, he should have found someone who's style he enjoys enough to get some more done.

also, did Jamie say he had been tattooing for 17 years? he looks like that would have made him an 8 year old tattooer at one point.

I thought the same thing, that guy looks like he is 30 max.

when watching the few episodes that i've watched, i was blown away how many of these chumps had so little tattoos. i couldn't believe it. how the hell can you be a tattooer and not have a bunch of tattoos? makes absolutely no sense to me. it's like a hitting coach trying to teach someone to bat that's never made it to the majors.

Could be clever editing, but I see an overwhelming theme of arrogance portrayed. I get the feeling from some that what happened it tattooing before them didn't matter because their art just blows it out of the water. No regards to fundamentals even though poor execution seems to be the theme week after week.

I felt like Jesse started to get it last week when he did a traditional japanese tattoo, it was the first time someone really acknowledged that it wasn't really about them and their ego or style, it was about showing how well rounded you are as a tattooer. Then this week he started listening to the peanut gallery and now he is disappointed for selling out.

The same thing goes for the whole "get some tattoos" conversation. The excuses are bull shit, if you have worked in a shop for 17 years and haven't got a tattoo, you aren't going to start doing it next week. It was just a way to placate the judges and it didn't work. It's a lot easier to convince yourself getting a tattoo is a good idea when you are young. Plus at this point why bother, I would trust a tattooer with 17 years experience that just start getting tattooed last week about as much as I would trust someone without them.

In conclusion I don't think they could have gotten a worse representation of tattooers if they set out with the intent to do so.

You got that right. I think it's hard for them to find good tattooers willing to go on the show.

Good tattooers don't come with the necessary drama.

[JAllen]

good tattooers are too busy tattooing

[Kev]

watch it man, this shits funny

Favorite part was when Rubendall asked that guy if he knew what the koi he was tattooing represented

Tattooer: "No"

Rubendall:"It means strength"

His look of disgust was so great.

[Our Endless Days]

so, what i gather is that i need to watch the episode with rubendall?

[EzRider]

What about the last episode when the jackass with no tattoos had everyone draw them on him after the judges ripped him for it.

I think they were going to send the crazy chick home, then I saw the markers and knew he was leaving.

[EzRider]

Yeah I'm sure they saw that as a slap in the face.

Watch them all, see them get ripped by not only Rubendal, but Stell, Negrete, Rudy, etc

I have to say though I love reality TV, even when its bad

[Dhopper]

Yeah it is the same tiger that horiyoshi 3, Tim Lehi , and many other, better artists, than this guy claims is his, just alittle variation of it.

[Johannes]

I've watched a couple of episodes of this now and what can I say? It's my new funny show to watch when I need a good laugh!

But, come on, that Sarah, or whatever her name is...she should seek some professional help. I bet a psychiatrist and some medication would calm her down a bunch.

I do think it looks like its humping the rock.
