Baltimore Tattoo shop makes week 9 exit Posted by TBNDavid On 08/09/2017 On the ninth episode of “Ink Master,” Season 1 Veteran Tommy Helm and Marvin Silva of Empire State Studio (Amityville, NY) entered the competition. Following a flash challenge in which contestants demonstrated proportion by applying plaster to a large canvas to create a relief sculpture, an old classic art form, they then had to design Pin-Up Girl tattoos. In the end, the judges felt that Pinz and Needles (Baltimore, MD) did not have what it takes to be the next “Ink Master Master Shop.” After the ninth week of competition the shops left competing are: • Allegory Arts – Florence, AL o Ulyss Blair (@Ulyss_Blair) - Co-owner/Artist o Eva Huber (@eva_jean) – Co-owner/Artist • Artistic Skin Designs – Indianapolis, IN o April Nicole (@April_Nicole) – Artist o Dane Smith (@danesmithtattoo) – Artist • Basilica Tattoo – Las Vegas, NV o Christian Buckingham (@ChristianBuckingham) – Co-owner/Artist o Noelin Wheeler (@Noelin.Tattoo) – Artist • Black Cobra Tattoos – Sherwood, AR o Katie McGowan (@katietattoos) – Artist o Matt O’Baugh (@mattobaugh) – Owner • Classic Trilogy Tattoo – Syracuse, NY o Thom Bulman (@Bulman_Tattoos) – Owner/Artist o Derek Zielinski (@derek_zielinski_artist) – Artist • Empire State Studio – Amityville, NY o Tommy Helm (@tommyhelmart) – Owner o Marvin Silva (@iammarvinsilva) – Artist • Old Town Ink – Scottsdale, AZ o Bubba Irwin (@Bubbaitattoos) – Artist o DJ Tambe (@djtambe) – Artist • Unkindness Art – Richmond, VA o Erin Chance (@ErinChanceTattoo) – Owner/Artist o Doom Kitten (@doomkitten) – Artist Coming up on the next episode of “Ink Master” on Tuesday, August 15 at 10pm ET/PT – The final Veteran shop returns to fight for the first ever title of Master Shop and skull picks are key to the precision strike leveled at the opposing alliance.
