for the people that struggle with bubble letters and throws...'cause i do

 

throwies generally go up really fast. The reason behind

a lot of the throwy styles having unorthodox letter structures

is because of natural arm movement. Nice curvy round letters are much easier to paint fast.

Points and loops in an outline are to change direction without stopping. And they look cool.

 

i'll definitely be looking for realistic linear flows and structures.

 

in my nieghborhood throws have always been called two colors..... ;)

Well yes Uephoric does need to work on a lot more straight letter than pieceing cause that didn't come out good at all.

-PROBELMS

1.ARROWS- They are so played out and SHOULD NOT be used when you just started graff.

2.The 3D is way off they should all be going in 1 direction.

3.You barley know the skill of the other writer you're facing, that's why we set classes in the tournament.

4.Overall WORK on STRAIGHT letters witout 3D n Arrows.

5.Make letters flow and keep all teh letters the same size don't make a skinny P and a really fat S.
