Another Mehndi Inspired Mandala Tutorial

For this tutorial I'm using:

 Stillman and Birn Zeta Series Wirebound Sketchbook (6x8 in 15.2x20.3 cm)

Staedtler Triplus Fineliner 334 

STABILO Pen 68 Mini

ZIG-Watercolor BrusH20 Detailer
 

 Using the STABILO Pen 68 Mini or any water based felt tip pen, start your mandala in the center, and work outwards. I don't use a compass or any template.

Now, using the ZIG-Watercolor BrusH20 Detailer, go carefully over the outline of each shape you want to color, try not to go outside the line otherwise the ink will spread where the paper is wet. You can leave some white uncolored shapes.

When your mandala is completely dry use the

Staedtler Triplus Fineliner 334 to draw the details and tidy up the borders.
