For audiences who aren’t entirely aware of what goes on in each week of the competitive tattoo series Ink Master, it might be assumed that the only style of art being explored is putting ink into someone’s skin, but as a clip from this week’s episode can confirm, this assumption only scratches the surface of what the artists are tasked with completing. While the tattoo components of the series are often an independent experience, the flash challenges require some collaboration, with the below clip offering a glimpse of what happens when contestants have differences of opinion. Check out the exclusive clip below before a new episode of Ink Master premieres exclusively on Paramount+ on Wednesday, November 8th.
