Skin Wars

The idea and concept the this show is stunning seeing some of these amazing artist preform incredible pieces can be awe inspiring at times. So throughout the show competitor are reminded over and over this is a competition you are her to win, some forget that and others stay hard and true. Since the judges keep reminding the cast this you would think they would keep to there word but they don't. Low and behold finishing the 1 season the artist whom I believed should've won who had pure talent was disqualified even after following everything asked of the last challenged and taking what was learned and told told of him to change in his art style and brought out a amazing piece of art, now understand that this artist was always at the top almost every challenge but the judges still rejected this artist in favor of an over a horrible artist who throughout the entire show was in last or almost dropped out and skated along by sheer dumb luck and puffy eyes and didn't even follow the last challenge requirements but put a "what I like" on the canvas. At the end of the day the Artist you showed true talent, dedication and Confidence was denied in favor of someone who kept saying "but I worked real hard" threw some puffy eyes on and throw in some BS emotions and OMG the Judges found there charity.

Hosted by the beautiful Rebecca Romijn, "Skin Wars" is a competition show that pits body painting artists against each other in a series of challenges. Verdicts are delivered by a panel of judges.

Each season, the producers try to throw more varied, more difficult, and more imaginative tasks at the artists. Such challenges can include camouflage work (where they attempt to make the model disappear into a background image), themed challenges (which can involve anything from super heroes to scenes from nature), or images inspired by the artists' own stories.

I love this show because it really illustrates the incredible talents of these artists. Painting is difficult, in general, but painting on a curved, movable surface presents some specific, harder challenges.

They also use different types of models. On one episode, they painted inspiring images on breast cancer survivors, which was very empowering and extremely beautiful.

It's nice to have television shows that celebrate artistry and beauty. "Skin Wars" is one of the best.

While most of the time can see visually why the judges chose the way they do, there are numerous times they make zero sense! These artists are all amazing, and i love watching them create master pieces. The camophalge challenge is my favorite and im am always blown away when i cannot see the model at all. I seriously feel that they choose for other reasons. IN TEAM CHALLENGES...They need to STOP pinning contestants against each other, asking who should win...duh...of course that person is going to say themselves. STOP invoking controversy amoung the players ..... it only satisfies the judges morbidity! If you think it's helping, think again. Also, with Season 3, they are showing the naked model and then transforming them into their painting... I do not care for that at all... stay with how you had it in Season one. NO NEED FOR CHANGES, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE NOT GOOD.

Also, what's up with the weirdo hair do's and stupid costumes of the narrator girl? Please get a newdesigner .. the one you have sucks!

All in all, I am amazed with all of their artwork, I believe it's beautiful and phenomenal.

As for the Judges, first of all, Sorry....RePaul has ZERO KNOWLEDGE of painting and does NOT belong in their at all.

IN Season One, this idiot Cheryl Ann... totally messed up numerous times and these idiot judges kept letting slide thru. Follow. the rules or get out... this stupid Cherly Ann kept breaking the rules, doing what she wanted, and the dam judges let her slide cause painting was good....NOOOOOO.... Follow the rules or go home! These judges are NOT fair and it's frustrating. I may not watch anymore because of them.

The shows concept is a really cool idea. However, the judges make it more about creating drama between the contestants than actually focusing on their artwork.

Skin Wars is so cool because there's nothing else on TV like it. The one thing it has in common with every other competition show filmed in the US, is they stage it and don't always send home the painter who did the worst artwork, and on the other end often reward a person top painter when there was someone else who deserved it more. They also need to come up with different ideas, they copied ideas from season to season which makes it really predictable.
