| Art and Design If you like it, is it Art? What is the difference between a good design, a bad design and bad taste? Does form follow function? If something works, does it matter what it looks like? |

I tried a piece, I suck!!
I wanna get into tagging, I already decided a name (mares), I did a piece and it came out gay. Any tips totse?? Also, my handstyle is pretty simple, I wonder if anyone can hook me up with a one liner or a bad ass style. I will give you the richjerk ebook via pm for anyone who helps me out. And if I really like the handstyle you gave me, Ill give you 2 links to over 100k ebooks. Thanks totse.
This is my gay piece.

With tagging like that you're either mind blowing or just a waste of spray paint. To me, there is no in between.
One tip I might add is take a photo so we can actually see the detail. I can barley see what is in your picture. Also, try doing it in marker and start with 2d letters. Something like this http://tinyurl.com/3cpnf6 . Ok? Grab a marker, go to some public bathroom, do that, take a photo, come back, post photo on totse. Alright? Good.

from what i know graff is personalized, like a signature. when you sign a paper you dont have someone else sign it, do you? skipping practice is what makes you shitty at anything- espescially art.
EDIT: oops, shoulda posted this in the graff thread -_-

Re: I tried a piece, I suck!!
You are starting off too technical. Start with simple pieces and get your letter structure on lock. Once you do that, adding extentions and what not come very easy.

Re: I tried a piece, I suck!!
what do you mean on lock, making it even? Also, handstyles are a big thing here, if its a shitty style then your automatically a toy.I just want a style to go write with while I practice in my notebook. Well I gues no one wants richjerk.com so far.

Re: I tried a piece, I suck!!
Firstly, you're trying to be WAY too complicated for your skill level.
Look up some tutorials for letter construction. Forget about the fills, 3d, colour etc. etc. just work on your letter construction. Make basic letter shapes, and write the same letter over and over again, adapting it every time until it looks good. Do this for each letter of your peice and then choose the letter shapes you want to stick with. Now draw them out cleanly with a sharp pencil. After that, draw the outline in an outlining marker and rub out the pencil. Then post your results.
Oh and, forget about the extensions for now, just work on BASIC letter structure! And don't be afraid to use aspects of other people's letter structure - do NOT copy the whole letter, but say if you saw a certain way that somebody connected the bar of the letter T with the stick of it, encorperate that into your letter construction.
Good luck,
H

Chill out! Unless they're stealing whole letter shapes, characters,etc. etc. don't call anyone a Biter.
