Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Birds of a Feather

Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Birds of a Feather

The Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Birds of a Feather is an elegant bird and feather flash design by bodypaint and graffiti artist Wiser Oner. This 20 x 25 cm Mylar stencil features a flying bird with spread wings, a second flying bird, a jay or parrot on a branch, a silhouette bird-branch and a large loose feather - plus a bird flock to combine freely. Together they give you everything from a minimal single-feather placement to a layered boho composition.

The positive and negative parts press out of the sheet separately, so you can mix this design endlessly with other TattooPro Stencils. Every time a unique airbrush tattoo.

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

How to use the TattooPro Stencil

Start by cleaning the skin with isopropyl alcohol (99%). A grease-free surface improves ink adhesion.

Place the stencil on the skin and hold it firmly. Spray the base shape through the negative part first, then place the positive part back over it for the fine details of the feather texture and bird outlines. Build up in thin layers.

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

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

Extra tips for a professional result

• Keep your hands clean and avoid smudges. Wear nitrile gloves so the hand holding the stencil stays clean.
• Add texture and stipple effects. Use Airbrush Stipple Tips to add targeted speckles - perfect for a subtle feather texture on the loose feather or a stippled shadow beneath the spread wings.
• Work from large to fine. An Airbrush Compressor with pressure control lets you dial in exactly the right airflow for both broad wing areas and the fine silhouette branch.
