Ink Master: Peck vs Nuñez is the eighth season of the tattoo reality competition Ink Master that premiered on August 23 and concluded on December 6, 2016 on Spike with 16 episodes. Host Dave Navarro returned alongside team captains Oliver Peck and Chris Núñez. Unlike the previous seasons, Season 8 features judges Peck and Núñez going head-to-head for the first time in Ink Master history where thirty artists battle for a spot on either team with both teams consisting of nine artists each. The first seven episodes featured each team battling their own members in an elimination-style competition for a spot in the top ten. Then, the top five artists on Team Peck battled Team Núñez's top five artists.
In addition to the $100,000, a feature in Inked magazine, the title of Ink Master and a Dodge Charger, the winner also received a guest spot at their respective team captain's shop (Oliver Peck's Elm Street Tattoo in Dallas, Texas or Chris Nuñez's Handcrafted in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida). 28-year old Ryan Ashley Malarkey from Team Peck became the first female Ink Master and the youngest winner in the show's history.

- Jury of Peers
- The team that is safe from elimination will put one artist from the opposing team up for elimination. They will then explain to the judges why that artist was chosen. Beginning with the tenth episode, all the artists will critique each other's work.
