Was Joel's tattoo the best? No. Was it the best out of the bottom four? Absolutely! He was robbed.

[@MissteryDiva]

The competition and expectations are getting brutal! Makes for an even better show

[@artisticalex1206]

For not having the original judges, so far I am loving this season. There are so many artists I love who are on here this season and I like the new judges as well. Will say though I feel so bad for Joel. He did not have the worst tattoo of the day in my opinion.

[@JoelMejiaTattoo]

I appreciate that! Hopefully one day Ink Master lets me come back✨

[@danielramos6325]

Same 🎉

[@stuyrides5144]

@@JoelMejiaTattoo You'll be back. No way were you last. there was some real bad tattoos there. Stay strong brother!

[@edgimosanimations3116]

Joel’s elimination is by far the most destructive and emotionally devastating elimination I’ve seen. I could feel his love for this work, his passion, his skill, his life. Him being the bottom tattoo is not only mentally devastating but like how do u go from that? Being the “worst” tattoo, just from a composition mistake of the neck he could’ve made it far had that been the mistake he could’ve fixed / prevented. I loved him, I hope he comes back one day. Or maybe he can grow and do his own thing. I wish him the best. I follow him on insta. One day I’ll maybe go out to Cali and be lucky enough to get a tattoo from him.

[@moo117]

The tattoo was average

[@JoelMejiaTattoo]

You are so sweet, I appreciate you! It is definitely not the last you'll ever see of me! Hopefully Ink Master lets me come back one day! Also, I am always down to tattoo, so if you're ever in Cali or I'm in your area HMU fosho 😁✨

[@lilsand.]

​@@ugdarg Yeah it was a bummer to hear some of the first words out of his mouth be about being a queer artist, no one cares, we wanna see your skills shine. Not that you're a queer artist, no one serious about tattoos gives a damn about that aspect of it. Don't trap yourself into that box of identity when you can be so much more than just a "queer artist". I wish nothing but the best for him, despite that there's a lot of growth needed. I hope we see him back in a few years after he's found himself as "Joel the artist".

[@jamesk3612]

I love him. I think it's hilarious how he's trying to game the system. I want to see how far he can get, weaseling his way out of every elimination

[@artisticalex1206]

Can agree. He should have been sent home over Koral.

[@ve_rooo]

Can’t really be ink master if you’re keeping things simple, don’t you think? They want people like Freddie who uses his style & interpret into others.

[@chimeratcg07]

@@ve_rooo not everyone can be like Freddie, DJ, Cleen, Anthony, even Steve with his horror tats. Sometimes being simple and straight to the point wins the competition.

His tattooing is amateurish. It looks like afro-cartoon.

I agree. It really got me thinking….black people have had to get white pin-ups etc. on their skin and I think it’s great that they can get quality black pin-ups,art…that they can relate to.

14:32 That's a gorgeous neck tattoo, I'd wear that any day! It's really unfair to bash it because that old tattoo throws it off by being so uncentered. That's not her mistake, that's another tattoo artist's mistake. Someone else's massive fail shouldn't detract from her own great work

It's so crazy that ink master consistently eliminates the artists that push against industry standards, or don't fall into the boxes that are expected of them. You're telling me they just happened to choose the queer artist, and the black guy who was wanting to include black people in tattooing to go home OVER the guy who openly admitted that he has no artistic talent and can only copy and paste? Crazy lmfao

those eliminations were proof the show is not rigged

[@cloudelk6059]

On this episode David in my opinion was tattoo of day. It was beautiful and man I can look at that tattoo all day long and what you want. Not something what Bryan is boring you you only need 5 sec to look at tattoos and then you never need to see it again.

I think they did a blind judge of all of them and ranked them based on points. They got the same points, but when weighing different aspects of the scorecard some weigh higher. Fundamentals vs creativity. Which is better. To these judges the answer was fundamentals.
