Last week, Lalo went home because he got high. Afroman reference. Mark enters the loft screaming that he never wants to be on the bottom again (so he’s a top kind of guy…) and Jesse interjects that he thought he would be the one to go home. Steve tells us again that the guys on the bottom need to go. If only they would throw out a double elimination then Steve could move on to other fish in the sea instead of Mark and Kay.

The artists meet the judges by the water and we learn this week will be all about contrast which can be with color or depth. In walk some storm troopers and Sarah flips the fuck out in the geekiest way possible. The 4 hour Flash Challenge will be to design a Storm Trooper helmet showing contrast. The winning helmet will be signed by George Lucas and all of them are getting auctioned off for the Make a Wish Foundation. You can bid on them here.

Clint, Sarah and Steve are all leading the bids understandably. Steve does a badass American Flag design because nothing contrasts better than red, white and blue. Kay has no real reference to Star Wars and decides to keep quiet and not pretend like he knows what it is all about. Sarah and Clint completely geek out over the challenge with Sarah saying she deserves this wins. Clint says it is time to punch someone in the mouth (I volunteer Steve or Kay) because he does contrast very well. Sebastian tries to do a Darth Maul inspired design but he isn’t sure of the reference and Clint tells him in his talking head to shut up because you shouldn’t need a reference. Sarah explains that Sebastian is very C3P0 with his copy paste skills. She then attacks Tacky’s helmet because she did a sugar skull theme which is so not Star Wars…Sarah, you jelly?


Tacky Baby


Steve


Sebastian


Sarah


Mark


Busta


Jesse


Jamie


Clint

The judges actually enjoyed Tacky’s design as well as Sarah, Jesse and Clint. Ultimately Clint is declared the winner though my favorite has to be Steve’s helmet. Clint won because he not only used color but the actual scenery (winter vs not winner) as contrast. Sarah is bummed out and Clint tells us we can hear a heart breaking.

    Mark needs a color wheel, for sure. WTF is he thinking? Something tells me in his circle he is probably considered a good tattoo artist….but when he is surrounded by other artists, you see how terrible he is. I think this is the best he’s ever gonna be, no improvement for him.

    Kutta’s tatt looked like….how do I say this….hmmm…..a vagina and labia. Just gonna say it :P . It was no bueno, and I am glad he’s gone.

    Sarah girl, PLEASE stop making yourself a target by going on and on. Girl you are very talented, Judges gonna hate. They are the bitchiest judges Ive seen on reality TV, it’s just how they are! Get over it!!!

    I gotta say, I was very impressed with Tattoo B’s Yoda! Very awesome, and on second look, her storm trooper helmet was pretty cool! I really liked Steve’s American Flag one…..with the backdrop of NYC, it was really cool.
    Thanks for the Make a Wish link, BTW! interesting to see what they are going for.

    It was hysterical how geeked out Sarah and Clint were at the Star Wars theme. I was really surprised at how good Tacky’s Yoda was. Not because she wasn’t familiar with Star Wars, but girl *nailed* that, and the light and shadow she did on that piece was awesome. I had no idea she could be that good. I really have been mostly *meh* about her but may have to rethink. At least until next episode.

    Jamie’s Wookie was pretty fantastic. Those who have said he seems creepy or has creepy eyes is right, though.

    Jesse is good at what he does, which I personally don’t care for at all, but his lack of variety is getting old. Has anyone else noticed that those big teeth he always does look EXACTLY LIKE his own teeth??!

    Has anyone watched Tattoo Nightmares? Some of those before tattoos are just jawdroppingly awful. I love it!
    Sarah is really talented but needs to stfu already. I was watching a replay of this season today on Spike, and in one of her confessionals a few episodes ago she was bitching about Tacky Baby acting like a whining little brat over the judges’ critiques and TB needs to suck it up…um, take your own advice.

    Omgggg what foul sorcery is this?
    Mark is sucking dicks. That’s the only explanation I have. He is sucking dicks and he is doing a damn good job of it too, because there is no other reason for him to be here. What are the judges smoking? Whatever it is, I want some too so I can see the world that they see, because in this world, Mark needed to go home. He’s putting this fucked up stuff on real people with real skin who have to look at that shit everyday! I mean, when I saw the tattoo, it took me a minute to even figure out what it was or what was happening in it.
    Then Jamie actually told him not to put the purple in there and Mark did it anyway. I wonder what the judges would have done if they knew about that. Ugh I am so annoyed right now, I can’t.

    And I agree that Sarah is jealous of Katherine. It could be editing, but it really seems like she’s obsessed, with the way she constantly compares their work even when no one else is and won’t give Katherine a compliment on anything ever.
    Like with the Yoda tattoo, I was annoyed that she kept calling it easy because it wasn’t. It was a simple tattoo, but to execute at that level is not easy. If it were, everyone would be doing it and there would be no point to this show. But Katherine hasn’t really done anything that good before today, so it’ll be interesting to see if this was a lucky fluke or if she’s legitimately tattoos at that level consistently.

    Oliver’s hair was so beautiful and soft-looking. Like a unicorn’s. I wonder what conditioner he uses.

    Steve and Clint’s helmets are raking in the cash.
    Mark’s helmet is worthless.

    Sarah is a very good artist, but holy fuck I am so sick of her watching and crying. She needs to shut the fuck up.
