How to Tattoo a Dotwork Mandala with Bintt
In our latest tattoo tutorial, we visited Bintt at Black Tapestry Studio for an in-depth examination of how he creates his incredible mandala tattoos!
Based on the south bank of the River Thames, Bintt’s modern studio with plenty of natural lighting is filled with artwork, taxidermy and greenery - the perfect setting to get this spiritually-charged tattoo.
Check out the video below to see how this dotwork mandala comes together through a combination of bold lining, dotwork and whip shading techniques!
We hope you enjoyed this tutorial with Bintt - head to Instagram to follow the man himself and maybe pick yourself up a cheeky mandala too!
