Ep 12. Put Your Ink Where Your Mouth Is

Ink Master season 12 episode 12, titled "Put Your Ink Where Your Mouth Is," brings together the remaining contestants in a head-to-head to determine the next elimination.

The episode kicks off with the artists participating in a flash challenge where they must create a tattoo that showcases their ability to effectively use negative space. The judges, Dave Navarro, Oliver Peck, and Chris Nunez, will evaluate each tattoo design and select their favorites. The artist with the winning flash challenge tattoo earns an advantage in the elimination challenge.

In the elimination challenge, the artists have to create a portrait tattoo of a well-known public figure. However, the catch is that the subject of the portrait is a surprise, as each artist must blindly select their portrait subject from a mystery box. They'll only have six hours to finish the portrait tattoo, and the judges will be looking out for accuracy, precision, and likeness.

As the artists create their portraits, tensions rise, with some artists struggling to accurately portray their selected subjects. Meanwhile, other artists excel, showcasing their technical abilities and producing realistic and striking portrait tattoos.

After the elimination round, the judges will evaluate each tattoo, and ultimately, one artist will be eliminated from the competition. The remaining competitors will move on to the next round, closer to the grand prize of $100,000 and the title of Ink Master.

Overall, Ink Master season 12 episode 12 promises to be full of high-stakes drama, intense competition, and stunning tattoo designs. Fans of the show won't want to miss out on this episode as it marks a pivotal moment in the competition, with the remaining artists having to push themselves to their limits to stay in the running.
