Large tattoos can be started prior to the show, but must be finished at the show.

For the healed tattoo category, the tattoo must have been completed within the last 6 months.

Best of Day

Each category winner will automatically be entered into Best of Day.

    1. Only artists or studios with a booth at the convention are eligible to submit entries. Submissions from artists who are not attending will not be accepted.

    3. For all categories, the model must be present during judging. Photo submissions will not be accepted.

    4. Please make sure you understand the competition rules. If you have any questions, the organisers can clarify, but the judges’ decision is always final.
