Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Buddhas

Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Buddhas

The Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Buddhas is a spiritual stencil by bodypaint and graffiti artist Wiser Oner. This 20 x 25 cm Mylar sheet features a Buddha head with a serene face, a laughing Buddha, a meditating Buddha figure and a meditating monk. Four elements you can punch out and combine freely for a calm, spiritual airbrush tattoo.

Thanks to the positive and negative parts, you can combine this design endlessly with other TattooPro Stencils. A different original airbrush tattoo every time.

TattooPro is a professional airbrush stencil range developed for body artists. The Mylar material is solvent-proof and with proper care lasts hundreds of uses, so a stencil pays for itself quickly.

How to use the TattooPro Stencil

Start by cleaning the skin with isopropyl alcohol (99%). A grease-free surface gives the ink a better grip.

Place the stencil on the skin and hold it firmly. Spray the base shape first through the negative part, then place the positive part back to add the fine details of the face or the meditative pose. Work in thin layers and build up gradually.

Want a longer-lasting result? Set the tattoo with setting powder and gently press the powder on with a powder brush or soft sponge.

Working with children? TattooPro stencils are designed for cosmetic airbrush inks suitable for the skin. Always check the ink label for the minimum age recommendation.

Extra tips for a professional result

• Keep your hands clean and prevent smudges. Wear nitrile gloves so the hand holding the stencil stays clean.
• Add texture and depth. Use Airbrush Stipple Tips to spray subtle stipple shadows around the Buddha's facial features, creating a softer, more meditative look.
• Work from large to fine. An Airbrush Compressor with pressure control lets you dial in the right pressure for both broad areas and the fine detail work on the monk figure.

The best inks for a realistic Buddha tattoo

Three ink types work with this stencil. Which one you choose depends on the body part, the occasion and how long it needs to last:

• ProAiir Hybrid stays looking great and waterproof for 1 day. Cosmetic alcohol base, safe for the face and easy to remove with liquid soap. First choice for festivals, events and children's parties.
• ProAiir Ink keeps looking good for 3 to 7 days on the body. Specifically developed for temporary tattoos on the body, not the face. Ideal when the tattoo needs to last several days, such as on holiday or at a multi-day festival.
• EBA Endura holds for up to 7 days, water-, sweat- and transfer-proof. Dries instantly, no cracking, and works on prosthetics too. The pro choice for theatre, film and SFX work.

When to use this Buddha stencil

A spiritual Buddha design works all year round. A few occasions where this Buddha tattoo stencil really earns its place:

• Spiritual and yoga-themed parties: the meditating figures fit perfectly with a zen or mandala theme.
• Festivals and events: mindfulness festivals, meditation retreats and Eastern markets are ideal settings for this design.
• Themed parties and cosplay: Eastern spiritual looks, Asian-themed parties and cosplay events where atmosphere and symbolism take centre stage.
• Theatre and film: Asian settings and spiritual drama productions where a convincing temporary tattoo is needed.
• Body painting competitions: combine this stencil with lotus or mandala stencils for a complete Eastern body art composition.
