A massive twist shakes up the competition and a painstaking Flash Challenge puts Shop relationships to the test. The battle continues for the title of Master Shop and the largest prize in Ink Master history.
Season 12 rivals Alexis Kovacs and Ash Mann look to settle unfinished business, while Master Anthony Michaels tries to tame the trash-talking winner of Season 10, Josh Payne.
A fiery veteran artist returns, taking the Competition by storm. A difficult Flash Challenge exposes weaknesses in the Shops, and the battle continues for 200K and the title of Master Shop.
The Competition gets even tougher when the Artists are tested on technical application with individual tattoos. Not one but two Veteran Artists return.
