Unfortunately, the human canvas who Sebastian got was a woman who clearly had no interest in horror.
Sebastian must have guessed that Steve would be doing that, and decided to do a horror piece of his own. All season long, Steve has been showing that he’s a specialist at horror pieces. It would be a 24-hour piece, done in four separate six hour sessions. The closing minutes of the first part of the finale revealed that the three finalists (Steve, Sarah, Sebastian) would be able to do a final tattoo of their choice, any subject matter allowed, on a human canvas. Tatu Baby: At least she has her modeling career to fall back on. I immediately told her “You know the internet is going to explode now because of this.” And, indeed, I went right onto the Ink Master Facebook page, where dozens and dozens of people were posting angry comments about how Tatu Baby had been cheated.

In what was a really big upset, despite the fact that Sebastian had never won a single Elimination Tattoo challenge, and Tatu Baby had won several plus had a tattoo in this episode that was better, it was Sebastian who got the third spot on the live finale. That’s nice, Sebastian, but you were the one who wanted to tattoo that particular person! Stop throwing around excuses. When called to task for it, Sebastian seemed to blame everything on the fact that his human canvas had very dark skin. Sebastian, however, did a very dark tattoo with some really flawed elements to its design. Tatu Baby did a dragon which was not especially great but, on the other hand, wasn’t bad either, at least in my opinion. The bottom two was, according to the judges, Tatu Baby and Sebastian. Sarah tattooed a phoenix which, despite a few flaws, was very nice.
Steve did a kick-ass tattoo of a muscular figure with a hammer & anvil which quite deservedly won best tattoo for the episode. Somehow, though, things did not turn out exactly that way.
Michele and I were both of the opinion that the three who should be selected to go on to the live conclusion were Steve, Sarah, and Tatu Baby. Coming into the home stretch were the final four contestants: Steve Tefft, Sarah Miller, Katherine “Tatu Baby” Flores, and Sebastian Murphy. My girlfriend Michele and I watched the two-part second season finale of Ink Master on Spike this past Tuesday.
