Breaking the Ice in the First Flash Challenge | Ink Master: Shop Wars (Season 9)

[@allisonwhelan6052]

A phrase heard on every season of Ink Master: “I’m thinking of doing a koi fish.”

[@danipack7069]

With Marq especially.

[@bbybo]

And 'tree of life', 'Chinese dragon' 'skulls and roses' 'wolf head'

[@digital_nobody]

"I hope you ran out of kois"

[@kkb892]

I’ve always wondered if the judges were capable of doing some of the flash challenges that they critique so harshly

[@ienzio7795]

Kelinde Ricketts They probably can but even if they couldn't it doesn't matter

[@kkb892]

Ienzio _ it does though. How can you give an expert critique on something you can’t do?

[@ienzio7795]

Kelinde Ricketts I can't cook but I can tell when food is bad and why. I can't write but I know if a books is poorly written and how it could be improved on.

[@kkb892]

Ienzio _ okay that’s fair. I’m not a tattoo expert but I can clearly see a bad tattoo. However, if you claim to be an expert at something you need to also be an expert on the things you are critiquing. You don’t have random people judging the Olympics etc. i can look at the Olympics and say so and so did a good job but I’m not an expert.

[@horus4523]

Kelinde Ricketts I know that u probably couldn’t do the flash challenges either so you can’t say anything

[@shayla5781]

I swear they do better in the flash challenges than they do doing tattoos on some of their canvases

[@asammehar3577]

shay so nice tatoo

[@youtubenerd7898]

They’re also nicer to their object in the flash challenges than they are to the canvases

[@amymillerxx7172]

[@MolotovAL]

Unless their canvas is vanilla ice

The moment I saw ice I said it and I was so dissapointed no one else did

If I had done this and had the skill i would have made Mr.Freeze from Batman

What I see the judges as The trucker The goth And the hipster

[@anniemcenaney6106]

Pretty representative of the tattooed community though, no?

[@EHowdy97]

I liked how they heard $200,000 and their thought was that they could pay off their student loans. That would be me

[@distressedmegan3364]

Same XD

[@carlakolumna7614]

EHowdy97 im happy that I don't have to pay student loans where I live :S

[@Junior-qj3vj]

Free in sweden :P

[@connorzampese5739]

first years free in NZ

[@kanjicx7924]

But taxs are raised by like 10% so your taxs go to paying college loans thats why its free in some place like Germany I belive?

[@gh05t_r1d3r]

So tired of seeing koi fish...

[@markvanrenselaar7962]

me too at least every flash challenge there is a koi fish

[@marktrevino8451]

If there's a will, there's a koi fish

[@PrincessAries86]

i think everyone is.

[@kingqball1]

well if they weren't always shit it would be fine

"If you're a true artist U can make art out of anything." - FACT.

[@sieuhtruong9851]

Uhm no not necessarily

[@elodkadar7411]

Not really

[@Emmy-en1ur]

If you can’t see a bunch of materials and think of an idea, are you actually an artist?

[@supremechaosxd995]

My friends and I would make fun of another friend because he sucks at football. “If you’re good at Fifa than you must be good at Football” is what we’d say to him. This is similar to that quote you said “If you’re a true artist you can make art out of anything”.

[@chiva9969]

SupremeChaos XD that’s not necessarily true at all. You can be good at fifa, a video game, and not be good at the actual sport. fifa involves hand-eye coordination, visual attention, and knowledge of a controller. The sport involved feet coordination, more teamwork, actual physical movement and training. Completely different things

[@addisondurrence1431]

Dane Smith: "I really like working with my significant other" Me: AWWWWWWWWW SO CUTE!

[@hannahzorn5837]

Every season at least one person/team is doing a Koi fish...!😂

[@Aro_dynamic46]

I thought Koi fish were great but since I’ve been watching Ink master, I hate them

[@talaismail9480]

Koi fish, skulls, eyes, dragons and flames are getting old tbh and they aren't creative anymore

[@tianarenee32]

Tala Ismail and roses

[@aaminax1665]

Tala Ismail mmmhm and chains

[@realta140]

And roses 🌹

[@fuscinula]

And phoenixes.

[@jelly6252]

i know your comment is from three years ago but isn't it very creative to create an awesome work out of things that are used a lot? It makes it a lot harder to stand out. So yeah, it is creative if you can still make an impressive piece

[@FreezySlayer24]

tri city aint foolin no one with that tri force logo form zelda

[@romeo_alpha0176]

To be fair, homeboy kinda looks like a Goron.

[@awesometakoz]

what happened to that guy's chin?

[@OHDAMNAGHOST77]

daniel de nava chin fucked

[@aidanrobinson4809]

What chin

[@gorilla8790]

I’m not sure but if u us chewing Tabaco and your lower lip gets infected I have to take your chin out

[@woojinmx9304]

Some people are born with the lack of a chin

[@fuckingfurchtbar3450]

Who's?

[@talaismail9480]

Koi fish aren't even creative anymore because of how many times people have done it and idk how a koi fish would represent a tattoo shop

[@brandoncrupi3062]

Tri-Cities Tattoo is gonna be the first to go

[@iliketangerines]

I swear if my tattoo artist can't do an amazing and perfect ice sculpture on there first time, they can't be a tattoo artist

[@yeahilikekorn]

I just have a feeling that the fellas from tri-cities tattoo company will not last long on this season cause it seems that they just don't work well as a team.. Anybody else?

[@vm1716]

i think it was the girls energy off the bat saying she only does tattoos

[@lucylilith5101]

WHO'S CHIN ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT

Allegory would definitely be my pick for this flash challenge!

[@Jamieb1994]

So if one artist gets eliminated, their partner goes gets eliminated as well?

[@dexloldud]

Jamieb1994 the season will me short then???

[@Jamieb1994]

dex loldud Yeah I guess it might be

[@FieldOVision]

they described it as soon as the video started... it's teams... teams win or lose together, have a dart bud

[@dexloldud]

FieldOVision but that means there will be only 6 episode if they get eliminated together

[@Jamieb1994]

dex loldud Yeah I agree, if they do make it short, then it will be just be a similar season to the first season

Danger Dave “I didn’t know that we were going to literally being doing everything together” Dude first you sound like your bored with everything in life. Second what did you think was going to happen coming into a competition where you work with someone from your shop? That you were going to work in the same room and compete against each other.

[@DestinyDW]

I agree with the judge. If you are a true artist you can make are out of anything.

[@Vicsage_]

Bang and Danger Dave are definitely not going to last. They can't work together at all. you could even see it in their intro video.
