About Balaclava Ink
Balaclava Ink is a fine-art tattoo studio in Woolloongabba, just south of the Brisbane CBD. The shop centres on detailed black-and-grey realism and clean, considered design.
Its resident artists work across realistic portraiture, animal studies, ornamental and mandala pieces and larger sleeve projects, with the design worked up collaboratively before the needle starts. Walk-ins are welcomed when there is space, and the studio also takes on full-day sessions for larger, more involved work. It suits people after a carefully rendered realism piece who want time spent on the drawing.
Clean, professional and portfolio-led, it is a fitting choice for a first serious tattoo or an ongoing project.
