Zomb man i dont mean to be a dick but tell the truth did you bite those letters? And i dig the cracks, keep fuckin with em and youll get better. My advice is to make some letters for a hand you like and practice them. Even if theyre ass with time and doing them till it hurts kinks will get worked out

Yeah, I'm having a hell of a time with my handstyle. Any recommendations on getting a good handstyle down?

 

yes, dont try to add to much to your letters, just like in (good) straights/throws/graffiti the letters, no matter how wacky, are based off of a good, simple letter structure. First get a clean simple hand down, just crazy basic ZOMB. Once this is possible with little to no effort everytime, maybe put a vertical line at the end of the bottom Z bar next 100000000 times... just keep pushing the basic letter, dont try to create a new one...

 

...and just to be clear with the cracks and other shit i say not to do.. i mean just dont FOCUS on these things. def. fuck with cracks, styles, stupid extensions, etc... you just dont need to post everything...

I didn't bite the letters but I did take some ideas from things I have seen yes. Just sketching and trying different things, not trying to jack anyones style.

the way i've always done it, is just try different styles with each letter. when you find a style that you like for an individual letter, the rest will come pretty naturally. just try to make it as original as possible. i see alot of people trying to do what others are doing and i've learned that's just not the way to go. personally, my favorite handstyles are one liners, but with ZOMB that is kind of hard to make those letters connect into a one liner tag. also, work on the little add ons that people do with their handstyles, and try to separate yourself from everyone else.

A toy is someone who looks at graffiti and says " I want to be like that"

Someone who has past being toy says "You do you, Umma do me." with full understanding of letters, formation, flow, color selection, etc.

It takes a long time, so bite bite bite, toys. Get it in while you can, but NEVER claim it as an original idea.
