The artists start consultations and Kay immediately makes an attempt to get his canvas to move the location of the tattoo from the ribs. Jamie interviews that in true form of a pussy Kay cannot hang and that he is being a little bitch by not doing what the client wants. Kay rationalizes that he just wants to stay in the competition so he will do what he has to do. Jesse hasn’t done pin-ups in years or black and white so he freaks when his client wants a black and white pin-up girl. Jamie and Sarah are confident because they do a lot of pin-up girls and Sarah claims it is one of her specialties. Photo Shoot Time! The guys are all drooling over Darenzia and she is really playing into it. It’s like she is the living version of Sexy and I Know it. Everyone tries to get her into the specific pose they need to translate into their tattoo including Jesse having her pretend to play piano.

Everyone starts tattooing and right away Steve feels like his piece will come out on top. Kay is struggling a bit as is Lalo who spent most of his time just getting the legs right. Dave remarks that the sketch of the face reminds him of Chucky and that it’s the scariest thing ever. Poor Lalo, he isn’t made for this competition sort of how concept designers will never win Project Runway. If you don’t conform to the masses you can’t expect to win which is a terrible message. Tacky Baby is pushing herself to go harder and does a really curvy figured pin-up. Seriously, the ass is amazing on this tattoo. Mark does his usual black blob of ink while Lalo struggles to finish in time. Steve spots Jesse’s tattoo and calls it an abomination and if they really wanted an Ink Master they should send him home.
The judges think that Sarah’s tattoo has squatty legs and Oliver tells her that Pin-Up 101 says the legs should be longer than normal. Chris points out the buck tooth which throws off her entire face. Tacky is called out for her pin-up holding the pie upright while Chris can’t get over the ass and face. Clint’s details were sexy to Dave and Oliver says he nailed the hands and shoes. Lalo had little to no detail and her face and hands were terrible and reminiscent of claws. Jesse also had no detail and the tattoo looked red and painful. Seriously, it looks like a blister and I wondered if that was coloring or if he fucked her skin up. Jamie’s piece is well received and he is told he really knows what he is doing. Sebastian did good details but ended up giving the girl a young sexy body with old lady features on her hand and throat. Mark’s looks like a cover-up blob again and he blames it on breaking his thumb before the competition started. Steve did lots of great details and created an example of how to do pin-up the right way. Kay’s looks terrible and he debates the hands with Oliver who says that if he can’t see that it was wrong, he shouldn’t be there.

I wondered what exactly Kreepy Kay Kutta (KKK) was convicted of…and what else he has to stay away from. Thanks for finding at least part of the answer. I didn’t care enough to try to Google it.
Tacky Baby’s dog looked so depressed…like hunting made it sad.
I’m not a guy, so can the guys tell me if you really find it sexy to be able to count a woman’s ribs from 20 feet away? Because that Darenzia picture frightened me a little…and so did Steve’s tattoo.
I didn’t think Steve’s tat should’ve won. I liked Jamie’s more or even Clint’s (not just because I’m hopelessly in like with him, I swear). I totally agree with the ribs thing. Who thinks that’s sexy?
I’m gonna miss Lalo, he was pretty cool. And I was hoping you would mention Darenzia’s constant sex faces! What in the world was that, I don’t even know who she is but what a douche.
Yeahh…I don’t get the ribs thing either.
And Darenzia was making me laugh with how hard she was trying to be sexy while sitting on the couch.
Guess they couldn’t get Dita von Teese, which is a shame. Love her.
Steve’s tattoo was not the best for me either. I liked Jamie’s better, even though there was some funky things going on with the thigh that was planted on the ground. The curve in it was in a weird place, and it was too meaty to belong to the girl. Like one thigh was a ballerina’s and the other’s was a rugby player’s but then the calves were the same. The hand sticking out was also a man’s hand. That’s probably why he didn’t win, even though she had a gorgeous face.
Steve’s proportions were better, but those ribs and the look on her face freaked me out.
And how did the judges make their decision this week, because I demand a recount. Mark has fucked up every tattoo he has touched way worse than Lalo has. Can Mark even draw?
And he has excuses for everything.
Oh, I was overthinking it.
Oh, I tried too hard to make it big.
Oh, I ran out of time.
Did I mention I broke my thumb?
Like my God, every day there’s a fresh excuse. But excuses are not going to fix his tattoos, and excuses are not going to return people’s skin to their previously unblemished forms. I’m sure he’s not an awful tattooer regularly, but he has choked throughout this competition and people have left with some seriously fucked up shit on their bodies. He needs to be stopped!
And Kay Kutta! His tattoo was so busted and disgusted, I cannot.
And Sebastian! His was a hot mess, and his attitude in front of the judges was horrible.
How does Lalo go home before any of these people?
Jamie does stare death, but I still think he’s sexy.
And it was nice of you to apologize for making fun of Sarah’s face. Idk though…her face was still scary to me this episode. She should just take still pictures and not let anyone film her talking ever.
That opening pic of Sarah – wow, she looks gorgeous!
And Lalo’s tattoo was hideous. The face on that girl was just scary.
“Tacky Baby’s dog looked so depressed…like hunting made it sad.”
@cattyfan, that is hysterical! And true.
Is that first pic you, SG? Lookin’ good
it’s always the pinup challenge that disappoints me the most. From Lalo’s monster head, to Mark’s fully covered up chick wearing (what looked like) Hefty garbage bags. Ugh.
NOT a fan of the “ribs” look. Sad thing is, it looked like she was sucking her stomach in for MORE rib effect. I wanna call her “McRib”.
Steve’s tatt was OK, I especially liked the little bit of color he put into it. Those shoes were to die for. But the ribs, THE RIBS.
Tatoo Baby’s was ok, the badunk was pretty sexy, but her face……ughhhhh.
I wanted to like Sarah’s but on second look, the pinup girl looks half bored, half dead.
Jamie’s football chick was the best, that’s who I voted for.
Can’t wait for next week, to see Oliver’s flowing mane…..
McRib!!! Hahahahahah!!!!
Pic is Sarah.
ohhhh then…. lookin’ good Sarah
Lalo’s lady looked bad, but honestly I thought Mark should have gone home. You couldn’t even see the pinup. That would be one helluva cover-up if at all, Lalo’s can at the very least be covered up. They were both bad, but I thought Mark’s was worse.
Between Steve and Jamie, I personally liked Jamie’s better.
Mark is the worst artist on the show i do not understand how they have kept him on for so long, why because he has a big mouth and like to talk to shit…. Honestly Lalo should have never gone home and Mark stayed, that pin up was straight butchered on that poor person who now has to walk around with that nasty piece on them….
And whats up with Sarah? Really Girl the only way you can elevate yourself is by putting other down. Tatu Baby did an excellent job, but ofcorse you had to hate and try and undermind her talent by stating that her Pin Ups Face was to dark, No Sarah you missed understood The Judges said \That she did a great job at not being scared of getting in there and putting the right amount of shadein that small space, this will be a tattoo that will hold for time to come.\ Did that burn your ass some more? Are you making more faces? You are a hater!…. Shame on you for not being able to\NOT\ hate on other to make your Bi-Polar feel better.
