Toy Questions

[novella]

question:

i just got a whole lot of prisma markers, along with a prisma 'colourless blender'. anyone have any idea how to use it? im assuming it can help make fades, etc

[d_g]

Ok, thinking of changing my name from Drest to Drast. Not really feeling the 'e' and the name sounds kinda lame.

This is what I got when I searched on google:

http://images.google.com/images?q=drast%20...f-8&sa=N&tab=wi (http://images.google.com/images?q=drast%20graffiti&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&sa=N&tab=wi)

He's not a king or anything is he? I've never heard of him. And he does live like a 6 hours plane flight away from where I am, I doubt we'll ever cross paths.

[FEN the HEN]

i dont think drest souns too lame, but if youre not feeling the letters defianately change that shit up

[d_g]

Fuck it, I'll just keep writting drest. I've already got a few tags around anyways.

[Mach]

how you get better hand control because i have to tag stuff really fast because i have really high pressure cans and otherwise it drips and is there any easy way to avoid that

[beke]

you just gotta practice doin your tags on paper or with markers at fast speeds, then when you move to a can your speed should be up there and the faster you go the less drips ull get

[FEN the HEN]

if thats your tag in your sig i wouldnt worry about it

[Mach]

k thanks but i can do sigs fast without drips but like im talkin about pieces n stuff that needs control whats a good way to let out the gas of my can but then dont let out too much and leave a can full of paint with no gas

Ginsu- check the "New 2 Graff" thread here in toy forum. sky5 gives a tutorial on how to go from simple letters to stylized.


My wife and I went to one of those "Pottery for paint" joints on a date. I made this for my babies nursery. It&#39;s corny, but I just played around with it for fun and did something on the fly. :P

Dude you would be a sick dad to have. imagine growing up and looking back at your baby shit and you had some tight graff pieces surrounding you. i bet your kid will turn into a tight writer.

his back is better than the front

[NICCSACC]

thats tight c3zr

[aces]

You tryin to get your kid into graff when he gets older? Just wondering that&#39;s sick if you are just by showing him all this stuff while he&#39;s a baby. Also does your wife care because my girlfriend just broke up with me a little while agp cause she found out that I write and she didn&#39;t want a boyfriend that would get caught up with the law.

[freeskier1292]

C3ZR, your married? with children? Wow, a dad who writes? i thought everyone was like under 25

Your name will most likely change as your handstyle progresses and you discover what letters you write best. You can write anything for now, cuzz you haven&#39;t really developed anything to put on the street.

The best way to find a name-
Go to the picture gallery forums- click on tags,tags,tags thread. Study the tags carefully. determine which ones you like, look at each letter and try to understand what it is that you like about it and what makes it flow. try and imagine the progression from a simple letter, to the styles you see. Now that you see what works for other people, go back to writing simple letters over and over, adding a bit of flair to them as you go, but not distorting the letter unnaturally. Imagine each letter as an organic being, with limbs and joints. When you add some style to the letter does it make it look like it has a broken limb, or is it flossin a b-boy stance? That&#39;s how I judge if a letter looks good. Nice letters look like they&#39;re popping and locking.. Bad letters look like they got beat down by riot police.

Do the whole alphabet. when you find 3-6 letters you like, try them in different variations together, come up with a name, and there you go. Remember tho, that as you develope, you&#39;ll get really excited everytime you do something better, but that&#39;s just a "personal best" and not nessecarilly wall worthy yet. It takes time, but it&#39;s an enjoyable journey too. ;)

wow dude. you&#39;re like a god to me right now. for someone that doesnt have that artistic of a mind looking at letters that way really changes shit.

also, im having alot alot of trouble getting my shading down aswell as my 3-d. i dont know why but they always turn out like shit. any tips or should i post up a pic so you can see where ive gone horribly wrong? [/b][/quote]

yo, just jacked all these from hobby lobby and they are SICK markers. there like fuckin 6 bucks a piece and the skinny little nib on one end acts like a paintbrush. i dig. 1 out of 10 stars what do you guys give prismas? these were a little more expensive so i just took them but if prismas are it then i can arrange another trip.

hah 9 markers for 50 bucks...fuck that

[nerdx]

yeah thoes are nice but expensive so i oped for prisma. thoes really work good like for watercolor esque things. ya dig
i would say prismas are dope maby a 8 but they do fade on stckers so its moslty for bbooks eevn though i use them for stickers.

[novella]

i just picked up a couple dozen prismas, and im loving them. tempted to go back and get some more (which i will do soon enough hehe)

prismas are 6.50&#036; around here though, more expensive then where ever youre racking yours from


they have the same 2 tips though, looks like the &#39;fat&#39; tip is bigger on the prisma though

[novella]

yo nerdx, any idea how to use a &#39;colourless blender&#39; prisma? i have one, but im not sure what its for. wondering if i can use it for fades somehow

[nerdx]

no, on thoes markers he grabbed its like a watercolor brush on one end(very flexible and brush like characteristics) and a chisle on the other.

naw man, ive got no clue. i was always wondeirng about it, but you can fadee with just the two colors so easily i never messed around with it. it seemed to just bleach the color out a bit, and then the nib on the belender would be that same color so idk whats up.

fuck mad posts sorry.

also a tip for anyone whos getting prismas, the color on the lable is lighter than what they actually produce. so if you want like a light green get a very very light green. it tends to happen and is more exagerated espeically with purple and other dark colors.

hm. i didnt check the individual prismas just saw that pack that was like 40 something bucks... the prisma stand by me didnt have the primary colors n shit so i opted to grab these

thanks for the info on the color being darker though nerd x. im gonna make a return trip to hobby lobby in a week or so, so ima rember that

[nerdx]

yeah i usually test them all out before you get them. all thoes kinds of shops have pads of paper and if not the rack that they are on usually works also.

ya i know what you mean about it bleaching out the colors. ive found i can fo fades with it, but the colours have to be very close to one another (like pm4 to pm5)

as far as the nib absorbing the other colors, its not a problem, if you get other colors in the nib, just a few strokes on a blank sheet and theyll be gone

when in my question did i once say how to do sigs without drips and my sig is like that cuz its on ms paint cuz i dont have a scanner

[d_g]

Ok, I&#39;m currently writing Drest, there&#39;s a few tags up but nothing extraordinary.

I was thinking of writing Drast but there&#39;s apparently ad old school writer by that name (here (http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=graffiti+drast&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8)) Drast2 doesn&#39;t really appeal to me.

So then I thought of writing Dast but that seems to be taken (http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=graffiti+dast&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8) too.

Anyone know anything about Drast, is he too good to use the name, same thing with Dast. And do you think Drest sounds lame/stupid/whatever?

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers.

[nerdx]

drast is good. i would use that. as long as you can write it.
doesnt seem like that dude is king or anyhting. no worries.

[NICCSACC]

drest is generic sounding. it should be frest if anything.
or spell it with a J like JREST it even sounds the same when you say it. the JR makes that D sound.

[doomsayer]

i dont see anything wrong with drest, jrest, drast and all that sound fine too. can sumione tell me how to do a fade with markers, as i have no clue at all&#33;

[nerdx]

you fill in the top with once color then bottom with other
then you graddually do lighter and lighter strokes of one color into the other.
then do the same with the color you havent done.

[doomsayer]

ive tried that it doesnt work, i just get like a darker colour in between

[BRAINE]

always use a light color first (blending, fading)
fill the light color in real heavy and juicy, if youre using say like cool shadow (faint green) or light cerulean or something that comes out very light, it wont affect it when you fill very very deep.
then start where you want a solid color, maybe lettuce green or a medium blue, fill in very very heavy, then slowly decrease the amount of juicyness you apply to the paper, if you understand how i mean cas i am not so good when english speach online typing.

then do faint strokes to blend, and go back over it with the light base color to fully blend, and lay it on thick again so the ink already in the paper will be reactivated by all the alcohol and mix together.

and since your base color was already dry, itll probly be darker wheere you blended it in, so use some light strokes once again to avoid getting a big saturated line.

learn to do this with sharpies and other cheap markers first.
also, with prismas and copics and most sharpie colors, after you do this, or use a colorless blender, just write a few lines on a scrap piece of paper until it is back to normal color, the nib might still look like it has some dark in it, but it wont show when you draw anymore.
.

6.50 for prismas? you crazy.
shit is like 3.30 here, and 5.80 for copics.
copics are the bomb markers, but they run out of ink faster than prismas, and i dont know where to buy refill cartridges except online which is expensive....



in conclusion to this lost post nobody will read, USE SHARPIES
when you are good at doing blends, fades, and other effects, move on to better markers. theres no point in using expensive markers if you cant use them right.
the only copics and prismas i have are colors that i can use with the sharpies i have, for doing blends and fades and dying fills and other stuff. also i have some darker colors i got for free, but im not gonna argue with free copics, right?

if you have a hobby lobby, look at the copic rack, it has a tutorial on how to use the markers to do many effects on the header. its a great read

[doomsayer]

haha juicyness&#33; ill give it a go when i can gte my hands on some colours.

[BRAINE]

also, copics are the fastest fading markers you can buy

copics fade in less than a week, and turn into greyscale of your original colors in like 2-3 weeks.
prismas color holds in longer in the sun if they dont get wet.
alot of sharpie colors will fade to different, lighter colors, but still retain the original colors.

thats why i use an ultrafine point decocolor marker for outlines, cas then even if my original colors and forcefield all fade, the outline and 3 d will still be intact (stickers) until it gets torn down

sorry for the two long posts, hope they at least help one person



USE Sharpies.

[C3ZR ONE]

Braine-Damn, that was helpful. I never could figure out that blender. I&#39;ve grown semi-fond of sharpies as well. I got shit loads of prismas, but something about sharpies just comforts me. I think I feel less pressured with them. :huh:

Next, give me a tutorial on how to quote just one sentence of a post so I can put this in my sig- " if you understand how I mean cas I am not so good when english speach online typing"
:lol: Reminds me of some of the spam threads we have to delete trying to sell drugs online. "Take one then rainbow burst to your morning, erection dancing after withdrawl, no hangover so you superman all over again. Then cherry burst is my life." :lol: :lol:

China bots rock...

[_Pure]

Ahh man, we dont have Sharpies in Europe :(

[Slushi]

that sucks.

I&#39;m not nessecarilly trying to get my kid into graff, but I will expose him to it, then he can express himself however he likes, whether it&#39;s through writing or ballet, as long as he (or she, still don&#39;t know yet but soon) is happy.

Why would I expose my child to graff? Interesting question, I&#39;m glad you almost asked it. :P As I see it, there are 2 things plagueing todays youth, and I see these 2 things just getting worse in the future.

#1- gangs
#2- The mass commercialization of hip hop into a big advertisement leaving kids soul-less zombies that crave bling, Dunks, and Bape, and subsequently feeling emotionally hollow and incompassionate......

I want to teach my child the 4 elements of hip hop, so that they aren&#39;t forgotten. Think about it.. Hip hop is one of the biggest things on the earth right now, yet most people have such a little and missguided concept of what it really is.. I don&#39;t want my kid thinking life is all about poppin Crystal in the VIP and slangin rocks on the corner, but that&#39;s what corporate America is trying to shove down his throat, so unless I take an active part in un-brainwashing him, (or her :P ) He&#39;ll likely loose himself. I also want him to understand that he doesn&#39;t have to be a toy soldier for some punk ass gang to be hip hop. Gangs raped the hip hop culture and tarnished it&#39;s image. Yet they think they&#39;re the poster child for hip hop. Fuck that. I use my graff to rally against all this bullshit on the regular. Lead thru example.
Another reason I want to expose my child to graff early is because eventually, I&#39;ll get busted again, and once they got me, they&#39;ll continue to over and over. I&#39;m the only person in this city doing wheatpaste and it&#39;s turned alot of heads. I&#39;ll continue to do it as long as I&#39;ve got something to say, but I don&#39;t want to be villaified as a bad guy in my childs eyes when "daddy has to go to jail."

I&#39;m putting up a new wheatpaste this weekend. It will say "The greatest wars are waged within your heart..." That&#39;s what graff is about to me. That&#39;s why I want my kid to know about it. He will have a war to wage of his own someday. I hope he wins.

Anyway, as far as my wife is concerned, she is pretty accepting of it as long as I keep a positive message. She gets pissed when she catches one of my tags tho. :P

Sorry for the fuckin manifesto.. I read your post right before work, and I had from 6pm-6am alone at work to think about it...

truth in those words....cezr u never kno how the styles and culture for our youth is going to change. i garentee my father thought i would be big into old rock and roll which he loved to listen to. i of course (being the rebell that i am :P ) chose my own path and started listening to rap. i eventually grew tired of that "im a gangsta, ling bling" shit and decided to go back to its roots to the good old hip hop. my dad even tried to sway my outlook towards rock (which i for one have nothing against...except for all that fairy rock the kids are listening to now) by buying me a guitar n gettin me lessons which i had fun doing and got pretty good at it...the only thing was i was using the guitar to make hip hop beats. i guess my point is that no matter how much you try to get your kids to listen to and be a part of the culture you love, your kids are their own person and will travel the path they want to travel. the best thing you can do is support your child in their actions and style...but i do think tryin to keep hip hop alive (or bring it back cause many ppl seem to think it is dead.... <_< pricks) through the next generation is a great idea. theres my speech. peace.

I was thinking of writing Drast but there&#39;s apparently ad old school writer by that name (here (http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=graffiti+drast&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8)) Drast2 doesn&#39;t really appeal to me.

So then I thought of writing Dast but that seems to be taken (http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=graffiti+dast&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8) too.

Anyone know anything about Drast, is he too good to use the name, same thing with Dast. And do you think Drest sounds lame/stupid/whatever?

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers.
Anyone else got something to add? I&#39;m leaning towards Dast right now.

hey i was just wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on how to do a wildstyle... i tried and i was completely lost it was pathetic

Everybody I talk to about graffiti says its dead or dying out, but the way I see its coming back or staying the same not as strong as it was in early 80s but still I dont see it goin away.....thoughts comments?

[C3ZR ONE]

Stickers go in the sticker/poster/ stencil thread.

Sketches go in the black book thread.

Crits are available in both threads.

This thread is for questions and random bullshit.

Thanks.

[doomsayer]

You can order from internet and get things delivered to you&#33;

[C3ZR ONE]

From what I&#39;ve read in interviews, the cops still haul him down to headquarters every once in a while. The last issue of Undastream he talked about nearly getting popped, but got of by luck. I don&#39;t know how big writers swing it. I wonder the same about Shepard Fairey (Obey), but I suppose if they didn&#39;t see you do it, then they can&#39;t prove that it&#39;s not an imposter.

[NICCSACC]

if they dont catch you in the act or have you on tape they really cant do shit and out there... they prolly dont give a shit about graffiti too much anyway cuz they know itll never go away.

[ShIfTeD]

yeah but thers youtube videos with his face clearly visable



damn i wish i knew, and i also wish i had some stickers by cope

[C3ZR ONE]

Shit... Cope has his own video. I saw an old add from bombing Science in Clout mag saying it was in stock.

By the way... Clout Magazine and Stylefile Mag from Europe reeeeeeeallllly rock hard. I&#39;d suggest you order them. Particularly the Clout mag combo under special package deals on BS. You won&#39;t be dissapointed.

I was wondering, after looking at the stickers thread in the pictures gallery, how do your print a sticker? do you just scan the image, color it, get sticker paper and print it? what kind of sticker paper is the best to get? and how do you set up your printer for using that paper?

thanks in advance&#33;

[Blix]

Use dhls to print on

[BoRe-719-]

i dont know if its been said yet, but the new kils cans are sick as hell, fuck changing caps, the one that comes with it is perfect, you can get lines tjhinner than grey dots and about as thick as an ny fat depending on where to press the nozzle, i did a tan and white fill blend, holy hell it was so sexy.

its thicker than ruso, no drips, no gloggs, you can spray upside down.......liquid sex in a shitload of colors

[C3ZR ONE]

I saw that post. I was more wondering how it worked on the wall. Detailed. And how the cap worked. I&#39;m gonna go grab some after dinner.

[Blix]

oooooo well its good stuff for the price like bore said you can get nice thin lines and it covers well....kinda strange colors though

[FEN the HEN]

can you put any caps on there?

[C3ZR ONE]

It&#39;s pretty cheap too isn&#39;t it? Did you get it at Wallmart? Cuzz that&#39;s where I saw it and it was cheap like you said. How much did you pay?

[myl]

nah i dont think it can take male caps

[FEN the HEN]

i hope you can, that looks good for fill-ins if its really opaque plus its nice and cheap

[Blix]

idk if you bein serious but it was like 2 somethin at walmart an naw you cant put caps on there


oh an the can is slightly larger then other paint

[nerdx]

its a female cap so it wont accept any german or nyfats or anything.
but it does cover good its made by this company that makes primers and sealers.

michels running krylon 1.99 each gatta hit that up.

[novella]

1.99?

thats almost too good to be true. i wish the micheals around here would do that.

This is kinda a few pages ago... but, YOU TOYS don&#39;t get sharpies. get Prismas dammit&#33;
http://polymerclayexpress.net/images/prisma_markers48.jpg

[C3ZR ONE]

Toys don&#39;t really need prismas, although they&#39;re great markers, and if you can afford them, they are better than sharpies, but if you&#39;re just beggining, you&#39;re gonna blow alot of money on making a nice fill with shit letters...

However, if you really do wan&#39;t them, go to ebay. They&#39;re way cheaper than you can get them in stores if you find the right deal. I got a package with 100 Prismas and Design2&#39;s (design2&#39;s are the same quality) for like 30 bucks as opposed to paying 60bucks for a 24 pack.

michels running krylon 1.99 each gatta hit that up.
our michels was running it for about 5 bucks on sunday...so i racked a can of mopre expensive piant, it sucked ass i was pissed

so we basically tested out two brands of paint, besides krylon and rusto and a little molotw a friend had...kill, in my opinion, was better than the molotow i used to outline my piece, plus they started selling montana in my city i loves it

[nerdx]

yeah, i know the stuff your talking bout, its good on canvas but watery as fuck for everything else.

you paint and it already looks faded. nice colors though.

yo this is the toyest q ever but, ive never used spraypaint before (aside from practicing in my back yard with w/e i find in my garage) and im about to go buy some paint to make ink for my mop this weekend. I told my friend i need a bucket of tremclad and he said he has a shit load of bucket paint in his garage but its all "enamel" "crappy latex stuff". Well I remembered that when I was in osh almost all the rusto cans were "enamel". So is enamel good or bad? I know it can also mean oil based paint and not latex, and oil based is good.

[myl]

just go to home depot or somethin and they have little cans of rusto...like 1 pint

get some black or silver enamel and mix that shit with some thinner and youre good to go


if you want add a drop of dot-3 brake fluid to make it ghost on shit

[gotmiak]

Cool so i take it from your reply enamel is not something i shouldnt get.

I just got confused because i know enamel means latex sometimes, and krylon puts spraypaint on their cans while rusto puts enamel. w/e

no no no

DO NOT use alcohol

whoever made that shit up is a retard

this is what the proportions should be

1/3 THINNER
2/3 rusto or whatever

[nerdx]

you might want to try it out in your mop without any thinner.
for me straight rusto bucket paint is thinn enought to make drips.

just my opinion.

[bouncingsoul]

Wierd, everyone says Rusto is super thick... I&#39;m gonna go get some. I was going to make my own color, like a really vibrant aqua-ish type deal. It&#39;d stand out almost anywhere

[NICCSACC]

im thinking about making my own color(s)... real dope ones.

the silver is pretty thin, i did the 2/3 rusto silver and 1/3 thinner poured into a shoe polish mop and it was mad thin. to much drips for my liking. wish i woulda just put it with no thinner.

[riddleboxxmcl]

at my local paint store i normaly get rusto but i got pink dots that dont work for them at the store they only sell the krylon H2O latex paint is that shit bad or good?

[-testify-]

buy it and try it?

[novella]

i have a purple can of H2O, havent had much of a chance to use it though. seems like you need a few coats to get the color out right, so if possible use something else. i could be wrong though

i saw a commercial on TV for the krylon h2o and i believe its for use on plastic stuff like mail boxes and patio furniture. In the commercial it showed the water rolling off the object painted with the h2o stuff sorta like that patio wood stain stuff. Its probably not good for walls and stuff.

www.cope-2.piczo.com

a new syte i made dedicated to the legend cope 2

i need to know some info about him to put on the profile page
(date of birth, real name, place of birth , like a profile)

some1 please help


also some pics off his work as i only av a few on the gallery page


Check it out

WWW.COPE-2.PICZO.com

[alive]

why has everyone latched on to cope2? there are much bigger writers then that, both in terms of bombing, and piecing. kid, if you dont even have more then a few pics of his work, why the fuck are u making a site abt him? bcuz its the "cool" thing to do? the fuck? he has enough sites anyway. and why would you wanna promote another writer like that? graffiti is about promoting yourself.



so the misterious kilz paint is revealed:

on the right:

and a close up:
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g121/coercethemasses/DSC02744.jpg

so i used it some in the freedom tunnel yesterday. to be honest, after all the hype, i dont think it was that special. was a bit thicker then my other paints, and had nice pressure. thats about it.



peace.

Yeah, I would, but I never have enough money to buy the paint... And it&#39;s way hard to rack since they don&#39;t let you bring backpacks in the fucking store...

[jonowev]

[-testify-]

no

dont go out taggin yet, keep working on your handstyle / sketching

tips : dont make the ends of your letters into arrows (bottom left of your A)
try to make the letters the same size
try to learn to make your tag &#39;flow&#39; more, right now it has a lot of harsh angles in it, tough on the eyes

[jonowev]

with all due respect novella, the BEST way to practice is to go out tagging&#33;
keep working on it AWX but most importantly - GET OUT THERE&#33;

agreed about the harsh angles tho, novella. needs to me more rounded. thats what im working on with mine

[doomsayer]

ahh no, unless u wanna neg rep ur name, u practice on paper till ur tag is legit

That&#39;s bullshit... Listen, I appreciate the fact that you&#39;re givin crits and all, but dont say shit when you havn&#39;t done it yourself. Sketchin is the best way to improve on your shit, noone would wanna see that tag (which is fugly as hell) on the streets,

[jonowev]

okok... it needs ALOT of work
i was just trying to be nice to him :lol:

[ghozt]

anyone know what ink or paint i can get from wal mart for a kiwi mop?

[nerdx]

your probably not goign to find any good ink, but a mop is for paint.
get rustolem paint in the bucket. if you want it to be very drippy
get some paint thinner. and mix it together and put it in the kiwi.

if you just want it a little drippy just pour in just the paint and no thinner.

no its not you tard...

wildstyle is a very complex form of graffiti in which the letters are bent and distorted to make it hard to read, usually has a lot of extensions off the letters and shit

these could be considered forms of wildstyle:

a tag can be wildstyle man. learn your shit before talkin.
this also refers to your talkin in the painted thread.

[si0n]

no shit its not mine, it was an example of wildstyle.

[{BraT}]

so i am trying to find a new word to write, soup is getting a bit stale,
but i am wondering about the acceptability of a 2 letter throwies, i wann write artificial integrety, so ai for short, is this acceptable?

[nerdx]

no it is not accptable. if you look it up in the Rules of Graffiti, Internet Edition book page 1275 section 3.2 article 4 says
"absolutly no two letter bombs"

[aces]

Good luck fitting ARTIFICIAL INTEGRITY in a piece. Yea you could do AI for a bomb but what about pieces?

i guess i shouldnt talk for awhile...
