vin 950 You’d be surprised! I fell off a ladder about 2 years ago flat onto my back straight onto a vertical pipe coming out of the ground. It was instantly the most excruciating pain I’ve ever experienced.....however within 30 seconds I was as high as a kite with an opiate-like high. It was absolute bliss. The trouble is it only lasted like less than 10 minutes. 😂😂

[@JosePineda-jn8jk]

And his other tattoos are ugly as hell so this will look even better next to that shit

[@brookeallen5514]

I really enjoy how he's telling all the steps he's going to do to the canvas

[@tiffany3784]

Kind of felt medical which I enjoy. Knowing what to expect makes he experience that much better!

[@GiancarloFloyd]

He has a comfortable vibe about him he speaks to his client like a dentist.

[@viceb7]

Yea bedside manner goes a long way in any field

[@Theraceagainstmyhealth]

I would also think he's seen enough of these and how some of the master canvasses would bail so he definitely wanted to mentally guide the canvas through it.

[@crystalheart9]

How many days do they allow for healing before working on it again?

[@TheCkhutton12]

crystalheart9 typically 2-4 weeks depending on how it’s healing.

[@crystalheart9]

@@TheCkhutton12 Thanks so much for the information.

[@VixinatorsVideos]

the fact he designed it with the purpose of having many stopping points is genius. i had to pause a few times for my back piece, it hurts like hell and he strategized around it. legit.

[@TravisGunn]

He got all that line work done in only two hours??? That's incredible dude.

[@viceb7]

That's what I was thinking!! Fast and solid as fuck

[@crystalheart9]

I'm not a tattoo artist but I thought it looked really amazing.

[@aft5264]

I’d love to know how. It took my artist over an hour to finish an outline on my forearm.

[@probert2431]

I wanted Tony to win right from the beginning of the series. He seems like a humble man. I think just about everyone thought it was between Tiffer and Teej. But Tony had the drive and confidence to pull it off. Congrats Tony!!!

[@sandydandy576]

I think tiffer and teej’s egos played apart in their loses. Tony was a little bit humbler than those two. Was not expecting him to win though but glad that he did. 👍🏼

[@jancal9285]

I agree, Sandy. I thought sure it would be a Tiffer vs Teej contest. Yet, it’s as if the heart won: Tony and Cleen ❤️

[@TheSkyHazCloudz]

I think you're right. I thought for sure Tony would come in third, but at the end of the day, he out-tattooed both of them in the finale. The judges chose the right winner based off of those two tattoos. It doesn't matter if you were performing on top all season if you don't knock it out in the finale.

[@grisbear5683]

same. there were times i thought tony should have won tattoo of the day when tiffer won and bragged about winning those black and gray tattoos at the finale. tony’s tattoo was worthy of winning for sure

[@mambaout9089]

I was expecting him to win, he was my favorite since the ink angels show

[@viceb7]

I really like his personality, seems like a genuine dude

[@00Dusty]

This dude was a beast! The tattoo looks sick!!! Plus he was such a nice dude to his client making sure he was alright and not pushing him to much.... professional 👌🏻

[@jenniemochixo]

that introduction of the tattoo to the canvas was great - it's awesome how he factored in the possibility of getting a canvas who couldn't sit with his design, so the ability to alter based on the canvas' needs is really considerate

[@lanzkylubid8157]

i like this guy's mentality dude....

[@extrememike9218]

I liked all 3 finalists and they were the best. Had TeeJ's dragon been better, he probably woulda won. I loved TJs back piece, but ever so slight edge to Tony for his color. Tiffer's tag team lion was the best, but Tony was classy through the whole series and is a deserving champion. Kudos to Tony's canvas as well. TeeJ's was a douche. Love the show!

[@TheSkyHazCloudz]

Nah, Tiffer's lion was the reason why he got knocked out. It was a lion without fur, plain and simple.

[@KAATexclamationmark]

TeeJ was not a douche, him and Tony were my favorites! Tiffer on the otherhand, neat artist but what an annoying douche...

[@AttilatheThrilla]

He beat an Ink Master just to get onto the show... I knew he was going to be top 3 from the start!!

[@TheSkyHazCloudz]

I knew pretty early on that it would be a Tiffer, Teej, and Tony finale, but I definitely expected Teej and Tiffer to wipe out Tony and face off in the top two, but regardless of performance over the season, Tony out-tattoed them both in that finale (even if I think Teej's mater canvas edges out Tony's). The judges got this one right. And honestly, after his Ink Master Angels episode, I'm really glad the guy won. He set the tone for his approach to the competition with that dream catcher; don't over compliate it and just do a good tattoo.

[@theirishrealist8765]

He not only have the cleanest tattoo out of the the. He also got a great canvas. Heals great, pale skinned... and doesnt do crack and meth unlike Teej's canvas.
