Ink Master Tattoo Reality TV Show Competition:
Spike TV's
Ink Master tattoo reality
TV show challenges artists to put up their guns in the name of vain. After all, it is a body art competition.
Back for a second season, the heat is on and only the toughest, baddest and most creative tattoo artist takes the prize. (But everyone gets to share the stage with guitar hero Dave Navarro, which is sort of cool.)
Network and Time:
Spike channel Tuesdays 10/9C
First Aired:
Ink Master first debuted January 2011 in an effort to broaden the network's audience. A spike of 1.5 million viewers proved tattoo reality shows are the next throw down. Of course; they're tough.
What It's About:
Ink Master invites 10 of the country's best tattoo artists and puts them head to head with living canvases as they battle in throw down matches of skill and creativity with hopes to win the grand monetary prize of $100,000, an in-depth editorial in
Inked magazine and the prestigious title of
Ink Master. Just because an artist is good doesn't mean they can perform under pressure. Not everyone can take the cake. Ink runs, creativity staggers and permanent mistakes do happen.
Artists are selected through an extensive application process as are the living canvas volunteers. If you're feeling brave, why not subject yourself to the stage and hand of an artist under pressure?
Hosts:
Without a doubt, there's plenty of arm candy on
Ink Master . Host and former
Jane's Addiction rock legend
Dave Navarro judges in a panel alongside hardcore talents Chris Nunez of
Miami Ink and Oliver Peck, one of the most celebrated
old school style tattooists in the industry today.
If for none other than mere fascination, Ink Master brands a bold new mark on reality television. And just like a tattoo, viewers are back for more as the show carries on into its second season with more blood, sweat and tears.
Take a seat and watch the ink. It's addictive.
