Not true. Writers in most citys usualy go with 2-3 colors tops when bombing highly visible spots. It's called get it done and get the fuck out. And quality has nothing to do with the number of colors you use. Any toy can use 5-6 colors but it aint gonna make up for lack of letterstructure or style. Quoted post [/b] It is true that most writers don't have the skill to get up with more than 3 colors when hitting difficult spots, but like I said I see more writers elsewhere doing it than I do here. About your other point, I fully agree about the toys. It's mostly about letters, although I think color scheme and number of colors can drastically effect the quality of a peice. I've seen some dope outlines come out looking awfull when color was added. Anyway, no one has to agree with me here, thats the great thing about graffiti, its a completely free form of expression. These are just my opinions. Keep on painting.

and that makes our graff below par? i rock 2 colors and some inks Quoted post There's nothing wrong with 2 colors or throwups on the freeway, and plenty of people do those in other cities. But I see more 4+ color freeway or street level peices done in other cities than I do here, and generally with better style (at least in my opinion). And yes, I think seeing the freeways crushed with multi-colored peices is more impressive than seeing mostly throwups and straight letters done with 2 colors. Any writer knows that pulling off a multicolor wildstyle peice in a spot right on the road takes more skill and is harder than doing a 2 color straight letter or simple. I do a fair amount of traveling, so I see and take flicks of graffiti in quite a few cities, and the level of graffiti done here seems to be a few notches below average. I'm not trying to take anything away from anyone putting in work, I'm just telling you what I've seen. I love that the freeway scene is gaining ground again here in the last couple of years. There are definately some kids with some talent getting over in the Northwest (that Clubs and Mistake just posted is a great example, which I just flicked the other day). Anywway, I've been talking too much and not posting any flicks, so in the next few days I'll post a preview of things to come.

To me Seattle, and the Northwest in general is the opposite of what your saying here. There is just as much graff as the average city, but the buff works quicker here than in most areas, and the quality of graff is way below par (generally speaking). For instance, you look at freeway spots or rooftops anywhere else, and people are doing 5 or 6 color peices; here people are doing 2 color, mostly black and white simples, straightletters and throwups. You rarely see multicolor freeway hits.

You all are in for a real treat soon. Weapon of Choice website is making a comeback. I found someone who will let me host the site for free. No more of this no pictures crap and a dead thread. Maybe I'll start a new thread again, let this one die out, not that its not dead already.....see you soon.

If you're gonna diss someones graff in an attempt to show off to everyone how knowledgable you are about graff... you should at least know your graff. That's a straightletter not a throw. :clown2: Quoted post [/b] It's actually not even that, its a simple, or a silver. A straight letter is made up of straight letters. But really the point is that Charms is one of the best painters in the North West. His stuff comes out cleaner and with more style than most. It might bare a small resemblance to some of totems stuff, but I've never seen a straight up bite, they just have similar styles...sort of like most writers these days. Who cares.

Here are some flicks, you dirtbags.

Bumclown Production, What?

^^^you're retarded. Hang on a minute. I'll post it.

flicks from last weekend I took this last flick while driving. Barely got it.

*double post

These should work now, if they don't right click and hit show picture. I'll fix the rest if everyone can see these.

Yeah, you've posted that 3 times now hears, we all see your response. No one cares that much.

if I could ban people, I would ban you.

Those kemos pieces are burning hard. Liking the cense too.

someone hit me up with the directions to that freewall. westcoastgraffiti@hotmail.com

You have a flick of the revok next to this?

Apparently Fate and MQ do

speaking of jimi hendrix...

This thread really does blow. Here are some new pictures. 2 points to make - 1) Washington, you really aren't that great, but keep trying. I don't care about your weight, and I have nothing against you personaly, but when 95% of people say your stuff isn't that good, maybe its so. 2)Like quan said, everyone should be taught how to paint by people who know what they are doing. You'd get better way quicker, get caught less, and not piss as many people off by doing stupid things because you didn't know any better. Otherwise you'll end up being a toy for a long, long time. Find a mentor, or just learn from older writers, thats how its been done since the beginning. Pictures -
