Axis Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Sup fellas, I got interested in the art a few years back...My cousin who lives up in NY sent me a few quickies he did and I got interested in it...Started gettin into breakin, saw some of Mr. Wiggles stuff, got hooked... Nowadayz I just sketch stuff up, but this weekend, I'm going to be doing my first graff job on an abandon warehouse. I was lookin around the forums and didn't really find any stuff for newbs, but any links to sites to learn bout history of graff, the equipment and such?? Here's something I did during calculus with some of those fatties crayloa markers in like 5 min...Not the best I've done but it's a start.. http://pic8.picturetrail.com:80/VOL236/1309027/2488207/33127413.jpg'> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axis Posted September 19, 2003 Author Share Posted September 19, 2003 Thanks for the honestly. Personally, I do agree with you. As far as meeting some local writers...I have seen maybe 3 murals in like a 20mi radius...I'll chill out on the forums for a bit, only thing I can do is learn... Any suggestions for others? Dr.Seus.. I'd say bout 8 months or so...I'm a pretty good artist, and it sounds kinda bad, but I can just look a piece and copy it pretty well...I'm just trying to develop my own style.. The reason for the black tails....teacher threw an eraser at me, made a nice big stray mark...so I tried to fix it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axis Posted September 19, 2003 Author Share Posted September 19, 2003 Another 2 I've done...Copied the style of the letters http://pic8.picturetrail.com:80/VOL236/1309027/2488207/34058271.jpg'> http://pic8.picturetrail.com:80/VOL236/1309027/2488207/34058263.jpg'> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shor Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 hey you are good at biting. but maybe you should look at what people do, they all have the letters there and they just tweak them.. now your sketch i dont really see anything in it.. maybe its just me, but it just looks like nothingness. but just look at a letter, and at its bars, and then just bend and shape them to your liking. all anyone ever says is 'go simpler' as if that explains it in detail... just understand what a letter looks like and then slap some imagination into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axis Posted September 19, 2003 Author Share Posted September 19, 2003 Once again thanks for honesty. As far as bending my letters to my liking, I'm just goin through the alphabet with variations here and there till I like one.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ares Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 At least your admiting you bit a sketch, unlike the other 80% of kids who come on here posting mr. wiggles' letters saying that they drew them on there own. Just keep practicing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom of your first letter is a little thin, and the entire second letter is too thick. Also look at the space between the tops of the 2nd and 3rd letter.... there's too much of it. Try pulling the letters closer to the center. That's my advice tho. I'm not sure it'll help, but it beats pointless critisism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should look around for some graff tips on the forum but don't make it your one source of input. Nothing but jackals on here, including myself.
