^ you watered down with ink? you water stuff down with water my friend. i think the word you are looking for is diluted.
about the Montana question. if your posting in the toy section, there is no reason what so ever you should be buying/wasting your money on good paint.

Ok, so I dont get it why EVERYONE fucking says "if youre toy you shouldnt be using montana" blah blah blah bullshit. If youre partaking in an art form regardless of talent level, youre going to want to use the highest grade medium. And granted, while you might not be able to use it to its full potential, why should you have to use some shit dollar can? If they want to spend the money on the fucking paint who are you to say they cant. FUCK

I want to get used to the good shit, and I have damn good can control for my skill level so Im going to keep with it. I can't find too many colors of rusto or krylon around here for some reason either.

I know what you guys are saying, but it's really not that way. My inspiration to write graff is mare 139, i met the fucking guy in person and talked to him for like an hour so give me a break there please. As for influence 123klan is by far my biggest influence.

yo cuzin you can buy paint off this websites store. its kinda pricy but thats how much it usually is unless you steal it. and the best way to develop style is to start simple. just draw straight letters for now untill you have a feel for things/

acos- not worth the money, you can steal a marker or make a mop just like it and buy better ink that will last a lot longer for just a few more dollars than that.
flipflop- no GK is just thinned paint and will not flow through the nib of a marker.

theres a section in the new to graffiti thread about coloring in and it tells you how to avoid that.
pretty much just color in up and down and left to right. then everything is even.

im a toy with a question, so i guess this is the right place to ask, but to anyone who has ordered from the bombingscience shop, what does the package look like. reason i ask is i dont want my mom seeing some big package with "Bombing Science: GRAFFITI SUPPLIES" or something on the package. thanks

ye, you could try easing your mum into graffiti, show her something clever then say how thats related to proper graffiti, then show her some amazing pieces and then just show her how dedicated you are. you do this over months though. or if your parents are split your dad is normally cooler with it so get him to get like a can or something and just use it on a board, when they see that you're ok they'll realise that they cant stop you.
thanks letsgobombin. im 18, so there really isnt a problem, just the less she knows about my various "criminal" activities the better ya dig. she is already into graffiti, and would have no problem with me doing it legally, but the illegal and dangerous aspects is where she gets motherly. if i knew of a nearby graff shop i would be gold. im shocked there arent more in orange county

the Fats have wider ridges than the Thins. Also, the very center of the dot looks a little different. But the ridges are the easiest way to tell them apart.

so what would be an easy way to make homemade ink that dont fade
btw people in the ink thread dont usually answer

when you have them both, it's easy to see te difference. but when you don't use them a lot you may make a mistake sometimes.
Right i have a problem, I have only been graffiting for a little while and i have only put up a few little tags and 3 small stencils. Now i wanted to keep it so nobody knew who that it was me and tonight i was out and got caught by my friend doing it so now he knows its me and i know he will tell people and that it will get around that its me. So should i find a new name and start fresh bcoz i have only done a few things or just stay with my current name?
Shiva.

how the hell can you get caught by a friend?

well seince your a young kid, dont look at any other graffiti to intesly, glace at some things, like letter structure and maybe a few colour schemes, and thats it, then turn ur computer off turn music on, and do graffiti in ur book untill you get so frustrated that u have to stop. then do it the next day, and the day after that and so on, if u keep looking at shit on the internet, u see sooo many differnt styles that your style that u origionaly have goes right out the window, and ur style turns into mush of everyone elses,. when u finally learn how to sketch without turning ur book upside down or to the side to do a line, and when ur lines start to not get wobbely then maybe take another few looks at graffiti , when u start to do ur sketch, look at every aspect of it not just the Letters themselves, but look at it as a whole, i mean look at which way ur 3d is gunna point on the very first letter you do, if u look at some good pieces, you see that the 3d wasnt just thrown in there at the last minut but people use it to encourperate with their space. and remember sketch all the time, make it so if ur on the phone with ur grandma ur minnlessly sketching on some news paper or the cloth that covers ur table, once its in ur head so hard and that ur always thinking of new things, u might just be suprised to see that u made ur very own extensions, fuck tutorials fuck all that. it matters how YOU progress,,

ok well im not implying that the arrows or extensions are what make a piece look good, i was just asking how to take it to the next step type of deal. i can only do so many simples with different color schemes but believe me, ive tried like 10 different styles or attempted at least so its not like im doing the same piece over and over again with a different fill. i just dont really know where to go from here ya know...

post some of your stuff and we will decide if you're a kid who isn't doing it for the right reasons or someone who is actually good at simples. Chances are that you're the former considering you're asking for a tutorial for wildstyle. stick with simples and you'll find your own style, when you start you dont realise their are thousands of styles
chump- what markers can you easily get because its hard for me, personally, to find decent paint markers where i live, i just use what i can find

Hey guys.
So I've been writing for maybe 2 months...
And I have a problem.
My problem is with tagging. I'm scared. I still do it sometimes, but I don't like to. I get worried that the cops will be called on me. That someone will see me, not say anything, and a cop will roll around the corner and stop me because I'm a "suspect". It's not that hard to describe my physical appearance. Trust me.
I also have this fear that while I'm hitting something up, a cop will come around randomly in traffic and see me.
How do I get over this shit? I'm tired of it. Oh, did I forget to mention that theres only a population of about 45,000 people in my town?

Each time I want to post a picture on a forum I do everything correctly I go to image shack, I resize the picture, then I copy the direct link to image, then I got to the forum, click reply click on the image icon, I paste the link, but when I preview it or I post it, it comes up as a little square with a red X in it. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

why don't you resize the picture before you upload the picture?
whatever, i'm not god, i don't know what the problem is. i think you're just making a stupid mistake every time.

ditch image shack, get photobucket. each time u upload a flick it gives u 3 ways to post,
one in html for myspace and websites,
one in forum with the img tags on it, and
one direct link.
copy the one with the image tags, post it.

How do you guys deal with your paranoia of daytime writing?
How'd you get over it?
What would you do if you tagged something and half a mile down the road you hear sirens?
sheltr
07-07-2008, 01:35 AM
bro daytime writing isnt the best idea to do anyway, sure marker tagging in random house filled streets is fine, like neighborhoods and stuff is alright but dont do it unless its a chill spot and such. and if u do daytime writing, make sure know one is around, thats how i 'got over the paranoia'
and also, dont worry if theres sirens half mile down the road, the pigs wouldnt put sirens on if they see u tag something in the day, if its a chill spot freak out if theres the shit when their sirens go like *woop woop*, yeah very elaborate i know but hey. but yeah dont worry if theres sirens, but if ur still paranoid, run i guess and pretend to catch a bus so u dont look stupid
i dunno, my long 2 cents

Just one more question though. IF I am spotted tagging, and someone calls the cops on me WITHOUT me knowing, (so I'm in no immediate hurry, just casually walking on the sidewalk) and then a cop rolls up on me because I look like a suspect taht the caller described....
What can he do to me?
Can he search me? Can he just arrest me? What? Those questions are what are bothering me the most.

when its sits for a long time the paint thinner seperates from the paint...
dollar store paint is garbage except for crome its the only color that'll cover,any brand of crome will cover
banana skinnies for outlines and gold dots for small details...what i use

go to walmart for all your paint needs man, even if ya don't rack just switch the sticker with a cheaper product next to it, works every time, i do that shit when i'm standing next to people who work there their fuckin clueless, but the permanancey of your paint depends on the extra ingredients you add to it, brake fluid for instance, it's all about fucking around with different chemicals

it all depends on the spot, is it in the open on a busy street or kinda a low traffic area, does it get bombed alot or were you the 1st. Also its not illegal to take pics, just do it if someone asks just feed' me some bullshit story of why your taking pics even tho its none of there bussiness anyway. I never sketch on taking pics but thats just me. One think tho is dont get caught red handed you know what i mean taking pics of a crome and balck throwy while your hands and sleeves are crome and black may not be the best idea lol.

maybe the security is outsourced to a local security company? ive seen that happen in smaller towns. It would def. suck to have to run from a 4 wheeler, i guess you could hide in some super thick underbrush.
tankers, im not sure about this, some do travel quite far, i think it has more to do with the angle of the tank part of the car....
in order to stand close enough to paint them, you are pretty much under it.(if that makes sense, walk up to one and maybe youll see what im sayin) how awkward they are is the only reason i can think of...but as all the great freight cars are hunted down for their smooth sides, and low to ground stance, im sure they will become more popular.

07-21-2008, 12:21 AM
so i guess you know something a couple hundred thousand asians dont. go suck a dick
youre out of your mind if you think that smog=paint fumes. wearing s surgical mask will block out the actual paint particles but you still have all the propellant (which is actually even more terrible for you) going right through those big ass holes in your mask. whether youre painting inside or outside you should wear a mask if youre going to be painting for any extended amount of time. if you choose not to, along with brain damage, have fun pissing every five minutes because your renal system is raped from all the fumes.
TL;DR wear a real respirator, yes it is worth the racking/buying

there are writers with duplicate names everywhere..its hard to find a name that hasnt been used yet so I wouldnt worry about it unless they lived in the same state as you or if they are legendary

I am sure that this has been posted a thousand times, so I am sorry if it has. Anyway, Are the NY Caps pretty legit? I am thinking about buying a gang of the fat caps and skinny guys. I picked up some walmart spray paint and want to try these caps. Again: I am sorry if this has been posted.

They are pretty cheap compared to other Paint........There is an art store in my city that has Montana gold for around $9 with tax and everything. I just picked up a respirator and plan on painting in a huge storm drain that goes under neath my neighborhood......its HUGE. Moral to my story: I would rather paint somewhere where no one will notice it and use cheap paint to practice with. I would rather get some skill instead of going out around town and paintin'.

Oh ok, yea thats a good idea, but for the montana I would rack that shit homie chances are that store doesnt have real cameras or security and I aint givin up 9 bucks a can

Alright.
I've been interested in graff and want to start writing.
problem is I don't know where to start.
What should I practice? Handstyle? I don't know where to start or what to start practicing on.
I have trouble trying to make my tag it's where i've tried starting.
Can anyone tell me what to start practicing/working on.
and tips on making a tag.

to start, pick a name that u like and grab a stack of paper and start writing ur name over and over again until u develop enough style to make a decent tag

pick yourself a name..start with your handstyle..just keep everything real simple for now and also pay close attention to the new to graff thread...a lot of the questions you will have pop up can be answered there...my first time writing i practiced my handstyle for hours on hours..then moved to throwies..then moved to pieces
ClaimRSM
07-24-2008, 12:57 PM
To start developing my handstyle I gotta start writing out my name simple right?
so just writing keyboard fonts and shit or what?
is there a way I'm supposed to write it?
So basically write my name OVER AND OVER again till i develop some style to make a decent tag?
yes boss!
practice makes perfect.
try and look at other tags and try and get the flow going with your name if you know what i mean. just keep repeating and repeating and repeating.

depends on the paint, you definitely dont want it too thin. a normal is 1/3 but for some bucket paint you don't even need that much.

Thats not junobo. Junobo is 2/3 white rusto, 1/3 oil based tube paint (or another color. You can mix paint and water as long as it is acrylic because acrylic is water based.
yeah but wouldnt it be better to use something that isnt water? like white spirit?

around town

difficult to read

and actually a "lay up" is what subways have, freights have "spurs"

freight guys say layup all the time it doesnt matter

07-27-2008, 03:59 PM
writers do that, read any freight company manual, or talk to someone who works in a yard,its not important but, that is the proper term, its because the first books on graff were about the subways, so the term carried over

I'm doing that canvas with few edits.
But the question is, if I paint the black background at first, is it gonna efect the all other colors? Like would the lighter ones be darker? As you can see, i'm using some quite light colors and don't want to fuck it up.

good to see somebody talking sense.
same goes with terms like "benching" a word used by freight writers which originated on the subways for obvious reasons.

Always start your colours with lightest first then do the darker colours last otherwise you WILL fuck it up and make it look a mess that's a general rule of any piece or artwork...Nice pic though, you take it?

Shalf thanks man, nah I didn't take the photo, it was sent for me as a request for a canvas.
I might get a company logo to paint. Anybody got any tips? I'll problably get the logo on the wall with projector, and then tape the needed spots, but all the letters of the logo aren't straigt, they have curves in it. And with tape the curves look real fucked up, any ideas how to not fuck it up? Thinking off cutting the tape on the curves carefully with exacto knife. It's better to prepare right than correct the mistakes, if fix one part with extra coat of paint, i'll have to go over the enitre logo, because the mistakse will be seen because it's gets some sunlight, and in the reflection you can see what parts are more and what are less covered.

i hear that with proper use you should change the filters every 6 months or so with regular use and keep it in an airtight box to stop it wasting...filter...power

I keep mine in two ziplock bags because of how paranoid I am. The filters are expensive!
My question of the day: I ordered some caps on July 24th and got the email that they were being shipped on the same day. If you have ever ordered from here, how long did it take?
