Megan Jean stole best tattoo of the day with this beautiful surrealism tattoo.

Matti Hixson, Season 4

Matti’s finale tattoo in season 4 was bold, badass and totally brilliant.

Kelly Doty, Season 8

Kelly got to show the judges her signature flair with a quirky gypsy that popped with wall to wall color.

Josh Payne, Season 10

Doing a portrait tattoo of a judge is no easy feat, especially in monochromatic shades. However, Josh Payne made everyone in America want a tattoo of Oliver Peck.

Joey Hamilton, Season 3

Joey Hamilton wowed the judges and snagged the title with this mermaid leg sleeve, a piece that many of us would wear with pride.

Jason Elliott, Season 10

I’m sorry, but how could Jason be sent home with this gorgeous tattoo? The creativity in the face alone was enough to make it one of the best of the season.

Jason Clay Dunn, Season 5

Jason Clay Dunn won over the judges at the season 5 finale with this colorful and creative new school back piece.

Duffy Fortner, Season 6

Duffy won best tattoo of the day with this elegant Victorian throat tattoo and we’re honestly impressed this piece came out of Ink Master.

DJ Tambe, Season 10

As a coach, Dj Tambe wowed the judges during the season 10 finale with a larger than life head and neck motif. This canvas is one lucky guy.

Cleen Rock One, Season 8

This colorful creature may be cute, but the tattoo itself is 100% bullet proof.

Cleen Rock One, Season 8

As someone who has been on Ink Master four times, it makes sense that Cleen would have more than one best tattoo on this list.

Another impressive finale back piece was Chris Blinston’s pin-up, which was packed with detail and impeccably crafted. 

Anthony Michaels, Season 8

The texture and dimension in this piece made Anthony a standout competitor during season 8.
