Members, Enter Your Best Tattoo Photos Each Month...

Award winning tattoo artist, Joshua Carlton, invites you to take the Ink Challenge! Each month, members can login and upload photos of their best work. Joshua Carlton and a panel of guest judges will critique all entries, offering feedback and rating each entry based on precision, technique, creative vision, overall composition, balance and line quality… and then some. Over $1,000 in cash and prizes including custom made tattoo machines, inks, artwork and more will be awarded each month. We’ll also post each month’s winning (and runner up) photos as well as interviews with the winning artists.
