Our intrepid video team visited Six Bullets Tattoo Studio in London to get this masterclass on blackwork surrealism with the charming Ben Dunning!

The epic Six Bullets is always a pleasure to visit, with so many creative and lovely tattoo artists in one place, and we were thrilled that Ben could reveal a few of his tattoo secrets.

Check out the video to see Ben’s unique way of working, including his technique of tallying to create a drawing-style effect using just a 3 Round Liner.
