I'm trying to achieve a certain technique but not sure how it's done in TVP if at all?

I'd start with some scanned-in ink blots and animate them by hand, always duplicating the last frame and adding to it.

In the Lawson film, some parts of the ink animation was animated under camera with actual ink and some were animated using custombrushes built up from scanned ink blots.
