Flash Challenge Preview: Sticky Situation - Ink Master, Season 8

[@kieratheresa]

I love that Ryan acknowledged that Gian outsmarted them and didn't get pissed off and say he cheated. It was a really smart idea!

[@y-fj9hh]

Kiera Theresa Ryan is very competitive, but not a sore loser. She learns from every competition and uses her losses and wins to make herself a stronger artist.

[@Chirpysemperboy]

*looks at cast from Season 9* Yeah, at least she didn't get bitter cause someone thought around the problem differently...

[@jericarlyle4279]

Well he won that battle but she won the war....and for that reason...keeping her focus, improving and not getting thrown off by others

[@gurglequeen433]

Yeah, some people would be bitter and angry about it but there are no rules against it. She accepted that he thought smartly and executed perfectly.

[@MarkiplierOfficial]

Yea, Ryan is definitely my favorite

[@Aaron.M88]

exactly. He took what they normally do to human canvas's, which is do a sketch put it on the human canvas then begin tatooing, but he used that knowledge and applied it to this flash challenge. that man knows how to think on his feet. and the picture came out great for just using tape lol.

Gian's was so cool! The style kind of reminds me of Soviet revolutionary posters, which I love.

[@_esmeralda_5112]

bert1029 that was oddly specific lol

[@MissJessyeNorman]

What a horrible thing to love.

[@gingergaley133]

MissJessyeNorman I think they meant that they loved the art rather than the meaning behind it

[@bboy9955]

That style of art originated in Russian propaganda posters is called constructivism and is the general inspiration for 'Obey' just for instance. Though he was shooting for neo-traditionalism, I totally agree with you and think its a very rad style.

[@alldaydevo]

Yeah I thought of something Cuban when I first seen it

Nikki S. said BoneFace pic looks like him. Ryan's pic looks like a self image too. Nikki should be fair.

[@sewpaintdraw]

that is exactly what i said.. i was like where is the shade against Ryan in that regard?

[@allisonsterken1792]

Also, BoneFace's doesn't even look that much like him. It's a black guy, but otherwise there are quite a few differences. It was a shitty argument against a good piece.

[@countingclams]

She honestly just hates boneface because he was a jerk to her.

Alexandra Eavers Exactly What I was thinking. And it wasn’t even a self portrait the face proportions were different and it didn’t have a beard

[@bbtae4177]

Does anyone else feel that so far the guys are attacking the girls for being girls and good artists? I just feel like all the girls have excellent work, but the guys keep complaining about their "alliance". I just want good competitors for the end, not some angry jealous little boys. Don't let the fact that all the girls are strong artists throw you, just get your shit done.

[@FreezySlayer24]

Emerald MonroeTorres u shouldn't need a team 5 or 6 artists to be a winner. gian did it all by himself with help from no one. having an alliance is a flawless way to make it to the end cause there a 50/50 in someone from your alliance getting skull pick and you getting a perfect canvas. everyone from the girls alliance has the easiest canvases and gian had the hardest ones and still killed it.

[@caitlinisonragemode7931]

The alliance between the girls was because they are good artists and they boys could not compete and they tried to trip them up so the girls formed the alliance to make they guys eat shit.

[@FreezySlayer24]

Caitlin 101 the only reason the girls did so good was cause the alliance. if ryan or nikki (not kelly) was in the season by themselves, they would have done alot worse. gian and erik didnt need an alliance they did good tattoos without a team.

[@sugarcranes9882]

Sam Mizrahi Eh, I think Ryan might have faired pretty well. She had very few skull picks and yet she did pretty well (in my opinion). I dunno. I guess it's all down to perspective

[@jordanisabella8307]

Emerald MonroeTorres the girls are taking the girl alliance thing to far, that's all they seem to focus on. They are to much about the whole " girl power" thing rather then focusing on the competition

[@laurenelizabeth4391]

They predicted the top two artists wayyyy before the season was over.

[@ealex9562]

Nikki really tried to say Boneface cheated for making the face look like him? Lmao all artists use references and using your own face as a reference is even harder. People need to learn the definition of cheating on this goddamn show jesus.
