Epic Ink

Meet Chris 51 and his out-of-this-world team of tattoo artists at Area-51 Tattoo.

The Area 51 crew bust out some more hyper-realistic tattoos including a portrait of the legendary Chris Farley, a pair of ram horns you've never seen on a man's head before, and an eye-popping zombie pinup girl. Meanwhile, Josh is tasked with tattooing a hyper-real image of a man's "space" cat onto his chest, while Caroline plays babysitter to his friendly feline.

In honor of Batman's 75th Anniversary, Chris Jones inks a huge fan with a hyper-real tribute to the Dark Knight. Then Chris 51 brings T-Rex out of extinction for a Jurassic Park fanatic. Meanwhile, Heather tattoos a squirmy girl's favorite video game into a beautifully designed half sleeve... in one day! And later on, Josh and Chris Jones team up to take a famous historical duel from the past and beam it into the future.

Chris 51 and his band of needle nerds are headed to tattoo at one of the largest pop culture conventions in the country--Chicago's C2E2! Before heading out, Chris 51 has a client looking to tattoo a massive octopus wrapped around her upper body. And Heather and Caroline stay behind to work with a client who wants a unicorn in a very "hairy" spot. Meanwhile the rest of the crew plays hard, but works even harder in Chicago, when they take on a hyper-realistic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, a heavy metal inspired R2D2 and C3PO tattoo and a RoboCop portrait.

It's Friday the 13th and to celebrate Chris 51 and his crew are about to blow the roof off Area 51 with the biggest party of the year and a surprise celebrity guest. First, three female friends come to the shop and get epic horror and sci-fi themed tattoos. Chris Jones inks a hyper-real zombie from one of George Romero's classic horror films, Jeff engineers an impressive ray gun, and Josh goes to the dark side with a lifelike portrait of Elvira, "Mistress of Dark".

Chris Jones inks a hyper-realistic bloody mouth on a friend that blows everyone away. Heather has the ultimate mash-up tattoo on deck--a mix of a classic children's doll and the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Chris 51 and Jeff team up to do double space battle tattoos on two hot sisters. And Jeff honors a fellow tattoo artist by turning his hand into a real life machine while Josh creates the perfect mash-up of one girl's favorite Grimm fairy tale.
