Asian Eater Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I document as much as I can. Whether its my work or not. In the future, I'll be glad I did and I also like to share pics of graff that not everyone sees in my city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detective Axel Folie Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 document everything you can, I try to, not handys so much but all throws, pieces, ect. if it took you more than 5minutes to do then its worth the 30seconds it takes to flik it.

Sleazeside Heights Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 when your 80 years old and your dick doesn't work anymore the flicks will be all you have left HAHAH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.hopeless. Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 definitely document everything...my big reason for that is you can look back a month or two or a year or however long and see how much you progressed.i know there was times that i felt like quiting but i looked back and realised how much i had improved and i was suddenly inspired to paint more and do more with my name.also its nice to have something to remember your stuff by the buff might erase it from the wall but it cant erase it from your memory.and a pic helps refresh that from time to time.

ColdCashMoney Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I think you'll be grateful in later life for documenting everything significant you do. But for tags and throwup I don't really bother with pictures (unless it's in a particulary nice spot like a girls boob). The stuff I really wish I had now 20yrs later is the graff I did in the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czecherbored Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 i just recently had the idea to start documenting my shit. give me some slack. i'm only 15 and just got back into tagging since i was 13. my idea is to just print some pictures and stick them in a black book. if anyone comes across it. it's just w. the black book. not assosciated w. you. unless you're dumb enough to put your name on your shit, which is a different story.

..LAZRS... Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I know alot of guys take flicks, print em out and make a book for the year it was done in. I agree with documenting everything significant, in the early stages its important to even get your throwies flicked, at least the filled in ones not so much on the hollows. It pays off the see your progression, and maybe later on you had a style you never developed that u might want to try again and tweak, you never know.

sikwit-it Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 40 hours of community service to me when i was caught tagging... i wasn't treated as an adult (was 19) - my luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellomynameisdl Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 its good to document. to see how much you have improved. or a spot that you have done and might be cleaned out the next day and nobody has seen yet. you will have a pic.

wisetuxedo Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 its always important to get a pic of your work, it makes it easier to see what you did wrong later, also shows the progression, and take pics of everything else you see just to have to look back on and get them printed... holding a stack of your shit feels good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swag1 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 You should document it,because you can track how far you've come since you'r toy days.Besides if you end up wanting to teach your kids/nephews/neiced itll be nice to have some video refrenc on how long it to0k you.
