  1. Thanks joker. Yeah I'm not going to go far from this style of G anymore. Glad I've fixed it.
  2. Thought so. Yeah the top left of your R should match the top left of your E then it would look better imo.
  3. Re read your post and I stand corrected. Re-started, my bad.. Does it say Ryne or Kyne? I'm guessing Ryne. If so maybe the top of the K or R for that matter needs defining a bit more. Or maybe its just me. My 2 cents anyway..
  4. You've been writing more than a couple weeks. That's for sure..
  5. Pretty happy with the style of my G's here. Something I've been struggling with. What y'all think..
  6. Yo schnitzel thanks for that man. I actually tried using export cans close to thirty years ago, and couldn't understand how artists could paint. It blew my mind. So I pretty much gave paint away. Now I understand to a degree, it's all about hi to low pressure cans. Skinny, fat caps etc. Can control with decent paint. I'm genuinely trying to get decent with cans. I will check supercheap and use this for fills. Great idea. Noted on the bronze haha. Also not sure if you knew this man but here's a favour on prices atm. Office works have cancelled the contract with ironlak for another brand. I get ironlak any colour for $4 AUS! Normally like $7+ Also strikers etc Normally $34 AUS, officeworks are like $13 a pack. Blackbooks, pencils etc all like 80% off. Only till there gone! Peace
  7. Thanks Joker as always. Gonna keep it simple like this without going to crazy. Simple colours. Yeah I felt like the Z was a bit of a Nigel (loner) hanging out there on his own. I think I need to step back from my piece more to get a better perspective.
  8. Kept it simple with minimal effects. The Z is a bit wonky but overall I think it clean for my level. I didn't have ant buff and didn't want to waste cans.. What y'all think? Any tips.
  9. Some basic freestyle lettering I just put down. I got plenty others, just wanted to know what people thought would go with my name. Trying to find what works, trying to come up with something subconsciously I can paint comfortably. Thanks
  10. Thanks again as always man. I think it's best I do a page of letters and maybe show what styles I come up with in terms of the letters for EGGZ. I'd also be able to show how I see the way they look to me. I'm going to take everyone's advice on here in terms of colours because it's something I'm struggling with. I'm going to keep it simple and use my resources to perfect my lettering. I'd love to look into how KEM works so cheers for that. I'm originally from Sydney OZ, but reside in North QLD at the moment. Gives you an idea of what's available to me. Can't compare to where I'm from but I make it work. Thanks for the help with colours, advice on highlights, drop shadows, forcefield etc. I laughed when Mr Yuck said everyone wants to go straight to burners! Haha it wasn't my intent, it just happened. And to be honest I noticed the piece was becoming worse the more I added to it. I will upload a piece very soon, with hopeful improvements. Peace
  11. Haha it's all part of experiment I suppose. I'll try to find a style where it don't look life two F's, because its deff something i need to fix. I'll write up maybe a page with some of my G's and see what y'all think anyway.. Will mix the G's up in my next one. What you think of two different style G's? I'm not really the type to always use the same style. I like trying new stuff.
  12. People have mentioned it, I like the challenge. Plus it's the word not the letters for me. SEEN - MF DOOM etc.. can be done But yeah its much harder.
  13. Looks like I'm gonna need a few tins of shit paint. Will see what I can get, then try mixing. My white backgrounds doing my head in.
  14. All the paint I can buy for buff starts as white. Then I have to pay extra for the tint/colour. Any tricks like other chemicals to throw into white paint? Haha.
  15. True. Also any tips on buff? The background is the cheapest white paint I could buy where i am. Obviously the buff colour will also determine what colours my fill and outlines are. What do you use to change a white buff to a grey or black etc, because that costs more to get put in etc..
  16. That's fine, I hear ya. Well what outline colours then with one colour fills? Just stick to black? How about highlights and shadows etc. I want to do more than just throwies. Throwies are for specific environments and I got time on my hands in my yard when I'm on.
  17. Thanks alot for your big input. I'll take it on board for my next one. It's actually the first time I've completed a piece like this with decent paint. (Ironlak). I used a NY fat for the fill, widow maker stock for the blending, and MTN level 1 for smaller lines. Never used cans like this before. I really want to get better can control that's the goal anyway. Can i get some tips on good colour combos to use? The colours i use always for the most part dont go. But yeah i could only work with what i had here. How do you think my can control was? I know my words could be alot better. It's all a learning curve for me.
  18. My first effort for my wall completed Alot to learn but didn't do to bad. Fire away.
  19. Sorry bout that. Life's been hectic at the moment. Stuck in limbo atm
  20. Thanks for the tips. Life's been hectic for me lately. I will look at that for sure.
