The final four reveals tattoos for the ultimate title and $250k.

Artists battle it out, but one misstep could end their journey.

15 Artists from across the globe fight to represent their hometowns. But before they can battle for $250,000 and the title of Ink Master, they must first earn their place in the competition. Part 1 of a 2-part premiere.

Stamp tattoos test precision - one slip and the title can be lost in the mail.

In a team Flash Challenge, the Artists must paint with smoke. Glitter tattoos on the stomach have them struggling to shine, and an unexpected twist makes winning Tattoo of the Day more important than ever.

The Artists must transform scars into works of art in an emotional Elimination Tattoo; three Artists must prove their ingenuity in a Face Off for survival; the battle for $250,000 continues.
