On episode 15 of the "Ink Master," Dave Kruseman, Matt O'Baugh, Chris Blinston, and Craig Foster were left to fight for their spot on the live finale next week. To decide on who stays in the game, the judges gave them a challenge to use all the skills that they had acquired all throughout season 6.

The challenge started with the four artists choosing a skull labeled with a specific style except for one which was labeled "artist's choice." They had to use whatever they had picked to design and create their piece. Each artist worked on the same human canvass using the style they had chosen.

Toward the end of the challenge, Craig was eliminated, leaving Kruseman, Matt, and Chris to duke it out on the live finale.

"Ink Master" season 6 episode 16 is now a three-way battle among Chris, Matt, and Dave. Each one of them has a strong chance of winning the $100,000 and the title "Ink Master."

The live finale of "Ink Master" season 6 will see the show's finalist go head to head to create their masterpiece within 35 hours. Dave Navarro announces that it should be a back piece that they can do in whatever style they like and on their chosen subject.

But it doesn't stop there. Not only will they be impressing the judge, but they also have to gain the approval of the show's audience. The three artists will work on a six-hour live tattoo session in the style that the viewers would pick. Whomever the audience pick as the winner of this live challenge will choose who will move onto the final two for the live finale. The back piece will be the judge's basis for picking the winner of the "Ink Master" title.

Watch out for the "Ink Master" live finale on Tuesday, Oct. 13, at 9 p.m. EST on Spike.
