Hahaha this makes me feel better. For fades you gotta fuck with it, I usually just try and hold the can at a crazy angle and get slowly farther away and apart between strokes. Figure the other two out your own self that shouldn't need to be taught.

Finally got outta the house, should've gotten some better colors instead of just taking whatever was in my bag.

First one is my first attempt at fading and i really dont like outline on the second one. Any tips on fades, outlines, and keeping letters the same size welcome. All crtiz are welcome too.

It looks like for both of your pieces you did, you filled your piece with one color and went over it with another. Dont do that, it wastes paint, after you lay down your font draw a horizontal line threw your font where you want the fill to be. Fill the bottom color then fill in the top with the two different colors. then you can chose which one you want to fade. Now when you pick that color if your using the old valspar cans or any ironlak, montana, etc. change the cap to a fatter cap, but you probly just using rusto. IF your using rusto its no problem, the fat cap just comes out a little better. Once your can is ready hold your can on like a 45 degree angle. When you go up to spray dont stand so close to it, give it a little space, you will find out what is the best distance to do fading over time. For keeping your letters the same size, sketch it out first on the wall with white paint, i use dollar paint with a vegan cap. If your letters are still not the same size draw a big ol rectangle and block it out into 4 blocks, and add your letters into them. I dont think i need to tell you how to outline, its pretty obvious.

you need to hit up the blackbook and work on letter structure for sure especially on your z and t, maybe even practice painting your pieces before you consider painting your stuff in public

if ur spending more than a dollar per can ur throwing ur money in the trash.... in fact if ur not stealing ur paint ur throwing ur money in the trash lol.... sprae learned his control from dollar cans im sure, buying montana gold ($7 a can!) wont make anything look better, just makes u look like a poser, that shits acrylic and meant for indoor artsy fartsy uses... go steal some rusto and kilz... itll give u more control and save u a shitload of money

im not hatin on anyone but i see too many people with no skill droppin tons of money on cans... stopppppit!

[oversprae mds]

i know what ya mean. i dont pay for my shit at all I'll rack any paint i can get

[Shit Outta Luck]

I feel you dude. The paint used for everything I've ever done has been racked. Fuck buying that shit, I'm a minor I'm gonna steal.

[toopski]

come to australia and have the same attitude in most states here all forms of spray paint is caged only in 1-2 states would it be possibly to rack from shops

other then that i only know people who rack fuck loads from the mines

[smokeitup]

I agree, why you hatin son? I can tell that piece was done with krylon's bullshit 360 tip can that only a toy would use

[toopski]

first thing this is the toy section so please fuck off yaself evow

[BennyBoii]

first thing this is the toy section so please fuck off yaself evow
i agree, but seriously dude, I'm not hating but you did't even finish your outline, I'm better than that and I suck...

[canteen green]

dam evow1 sends me a message saying no one likes my graff then posts some shit like that hahahahaha

[smokeitup]

i think my "piece" is actually alot better than evows, atleast u can actually see mine. and to the guy that thinks i use krylons, it was actually ironlak.

[smokeitup]

i agree, but seriously dude, I'm not hating but you did't even finish your outline, I'm better than that and I suck...
he was talkin about me not toop

[smokeitup]

dam evow1 sends me a message saying no one likes my graff then posts some shit like that hahahahaha

i'd ignore it. he has nothing worthwhile to post so he just dribbles shit. his other account got banned and he signed up again. report the cunt and get him banned again.

[Big Africa]

i dont pay for my paint either i found a sweet spot to rak mtn gold and black and walmart's the place to rack rusto and the ironlak was a gift so i've spent little to no money on paint

[Dossbog]

What the fuck does it matter how you got your paint? I don't understand why everyone tries to play stick up kid all the time when it's clearly irrelevant.

[toopski]

rack it buy it have it given to you its paint none the less if u aint got the skills to use it then who the fuck cares how u got it

[oversprae mds]

I aint trying to hate but if that was ironlak why is it so dusty? and were you using a calligraphy cap or what cause that looks like krylon to me

[Phat 2]

can some of yall gimme their honest opinions on this please. much appreciated.

[Shit Outta Luck]

Phat not tryna hate but that's got extensions in all the wrong places. Literally like none of them work. But I believe in you, you'll get the hang of em.

[Phat 2]

it's not mine, a friend of mine was refusing to believe that he's got too much going on. I needed to make it clear that my opinion wasn't personal or subjective.
keep the honest comments coming boys. thanks :)

[m aster of seduction]

why did you even let him paint that i wouldnt let my friend paint something like that

[toopski]

its clean atleast but structure needs a lil work and extensions need alotta work

[PETER]

phat : The arrow on the left should be something else. if it wasn't for some of the extensions some of the letters would be lacking. I believe it says relik. the I looks like a tiny y. the bit to the left has to go. he needs to work out an I that fills the dead space. The curved bit of the k doesn't fit the rest of the piece.

[canteen green]

phat dont listen to them that shit looks hella tough keep it up

[canteen green]

but i do agree that the fill coulda been less plain

[gemer]

@est2007 im diggen that thumbs up

[toopski]

i was taught to always rack everything, when i paint with someone who pays for paint, it usually gives me an uneasy feeling. If someone cant steal paint how am i suppose to trust them as a partner in crime? AND i wouldnt have half the ups i do if i had to pay for it...

move to where i live and try racking 90% of places have all the spray paint caged then what ya gonna do aye?

i always get to know the peeps i paint with before anything only one mate of mine i just met up with and went bombing

[Phat 2]

phat dont listen to them that shit looks hella tough keep it up

dude, do us all a favor (including yourself) and keep your toy comments to yourself for now... you'll one day know what you're talking about. your crits will one day be valid. hope for the best

[Mori]

Phat, I notice he sticks most his connections at the end of a leg to a letter, and in some cases he has extensions on either side of the same bar, this throws off the balance of the letters. Furthermore, although I can tell he tried to balance the piece with some unique letter placement with that I, but none of the letters interact, and with that many extensions I am sure he could have found a better use of that space with some clever connections between a few of those letters. In this way it appears stiff. And if your gonna finish off a piece with extensions like those arrows, you need to balance it on the other side

[tophaa]

@ know its time for some 3d your ready bro i believe in u!

I shall take it on sir! Thank you. I just dislike how sometimes my 3d outline drips and sometimes I paint over my base outline. Are there any ways around this? I know some people outline their throwies with a colour (say blue) and then will drop 3d from the blue outline, and afterwards, fill in the inner letters with a different colour and then a final outline. If that makes any sense...

[canteen green]

i always do my 3d in the same color as my outline and i almost always make mistakes here an there but thats the beauty of paint u just got back over it tell it looks clean. so i always fill first then outline then 3d then i out line again the 3d ant the first outline in a diffrent color an add bubbles or clouds or random stuff to make it look more like a full piece. cuz wen u just do plain letters no 3d or extra boarder work it looks to plain

[Lado]

Big Africa/Oreo: Dude, use dollar cans and maybe even rustos. Do not use Ironlaks yet. Way too soon. If I were you, I'd find myself a notebook or a bunch of paper and practice, practice practice. Get an idea of what you're doing and what you should be doing before you paint. There are a couple threads on the Toys Forum that'll do you good. Search around and ask questions, post pictures for criticism, all that good stuff. But stick to paper.

However, I do give you props for getting up. So keep on looking for advice, take it, learn from it, and put it in practice.

[DankOner]

Throwie yeh i accidentally did my n backwards rookie mistake.
52291
First ever attempt at a piece all feedback accepted the k sucks a bit using $2 cans.
52292

[tophaa]

For the throwie oultine, don't go over your lines so many times. From one toy to another, it's too soon to be working on pieces like that man. Work on your throwie letters, I'm not going to tell you not to use paint, because people on here that say that are dumbfucks, but do sketch your bubble letters out when you're not painting and work on can control. I assume you've been painting for like a month maybe? Just take it slow man, props on the attempted piece, I have seen worse but just take your time. A tag turns into a throwie, a throwie into a piece, and a piece into a burner. That will happen over a long period of time, don't fret it and keep at it.

[tophaa]

Also, those may or may not be rusto cans, it looks cheaper but, just a tip; When you start to get better, order some 'cap adapters.' They will help out a lot. But only do so after you've been painting for a bit longer and get better.

[PETER]

Dankoner: Please see the new to graffiti thread. Edit: Read it end to end. several times. Practice what is says until you are absolutly sick of it and keep doing it. Build your house from the foundation first not the roof.

[DankOner]

Alright thank's for the feedback and yeh ive been writing for probably less then a month.
its not rusto its called Australian Export obviously i live in Australia
also i know my tag is horrible i find it hard to make a nice Dank Tag

[malto]

exports are where its at lad im from aus, export chromies are the shit

[MiDo93]

Dank
kinda disregard what tophaa said its never too soon to work on pieces. You should make sketches of them, dont paint them right away. And when people say hit the books on here, they are actually right; they arent being "dumbfucks". You need to practice practice practice practice. Trust me it helps alot. Now i am not saying dont practice with paint. Go to home depo or wallmart and get the dollar cans of paint. Im pretty sure everyone has used them to practice their can control and to test out new pieces and throwies. Dont waste money on rusto at this point unless you have something solid down. Your piece isnt that bad for a first try, you just need to make some of the letters more structured; The K doesnt look like a K at all. Mess around with that on paper still though it has potential. And for your throwie thats how my first throwies came out. Its also not bad for a first but clean it up a bit, u shouldnt have overlaps in the outline. Just because its not that bad, that doesnt mean dont work on it; always try to improve your shit with new styles

[tophaa]

I agree with you Mido, That's basically what I was saying man. When i first starting posting on here a few months back, people told me to stop painting. I completely disregarded what they said, but I did take their crits and sketched everyday, and I have progressed drastically. I think it is kind of ridiculous that some people can draw an insanely complex wildstyle piece, but they have never painted. Props for those people knowing complexities, but drawing establishes a necessary foundation in which you should paint upon. I feel like you should draw and paint together, not just one or the other. Mido, I know that you can't say that you have never seen a perhaps more talented writer telling new writers to "quit" or to "not use paint." Dank, my first throwies looked about like that a few months back, realize that in 2-3 months, you will be laughing at your first pieces. When you notice the advancement, it is very rewarding and motivating.

tribute to my friend's father, who recently passed away.
messed the "Saade" pretty bad.
was copying the old english font, so the whole thing was really hard to pull off, it's the first time I try such a style and I had to build the whole thing from scratch sketching (with all the lines and shit to see where every bar goes)
turned out MUCH wonkier and uneven than I thought. I know all about the difference in sizes and placement and everything, so I'm not really looking for the deepest crits.
just sharing some painted things

[Skadeem]

There are some mistakes but I do dig it. As I scrolled I saw the words chrome and rusto. Which reminded to let anyone who didn't realize know that rusto and krylon chromes can be a bitch to fill with, for when you outline paint seems to react with it badly, my personal experience as I use A LOT of chrome(one of the few good krylon cans that you can still stick a pink dot on)

this.....is just........ugh. those god damn bars. but I learned a lot for something I did in a half hour with stock tips on shitty flourescent krylon. if anyone has something constructive to say go for it(black thing was retardation, never doing those colors again, fills aren't normally like that)

Your letters are on the right track in the 4th pic, build off that and scrap all the rest. And chill with the multi color scribble decoration shit until youre much better cause right now it just detracts from your letters. Its unique, ill give you that, but hold off on it until you know what youre doing. And acer is a hella generic name, get creative mr artsy fartsy. I'm looking forward to seeing you up once you improve, you have potential and most dudes around here quit in 1-2 years or move somewhere with a better scene you know..

fuck me... exports are good but that shit can vary between different cans, like one time a whole can lasted me a night, and one can i got 4 tags and when i went to do a hollow that shit was empty

Thank you for the words of encouragement. That str8letter is what I have been concentrating on lately and is the latest piece in the post. I have a bad habit of not stepping away from the wall when I should consider myself done and end up with all that unnecessary decoration crap and you definitely are right, it does detract from my letters. 52573

The other night my crew and I went out and hit this up. The mickey gave us hell and I really did not enjoy being on a ladder where cars could see me, so the mickey isn't too great. We improvised his hands and ended up killing the bottom half of the piece because we couldnn't get his hands down like we wanted. Either way, I think it was decent for out first big piece.

GONER crits... develop your own letters and dont use stuff from graffiti creator/dafont.com or wherever you got those letters, its okay to nibble off other people but dont eat the whole sandwhich naw mean?

[AGEKTOHIO]

and ACER,,, good stuff but remember walk before you run. dont get to crazy before you have the skills to go crazy (fills, letters, etc.)

good lookin out and thanks for the encouragement. I dove right in and went straight beast mode nuts at first but I am settling into my groove now and taking the time to discipline myself to learn the basics of style and form. Mad ups are important, but originality and impeccable style are necessary elements for reaching that next level.

no prob cat. take it easy

[Neoscience]

glad i found a toy thread. I'm green as fuck, so ill def be posting here in a few days.

@uknowigetup that first piece is dope son, i like the compliments u use- keeps everything in the cold shades, also dig your letter style in it: nice and simple but thats its strength.
my only criticism for the piece you and your crew did is that yellow u guys used; but thats more of a personal taste than anything. i feel for you in terms of the mickey being nerve racking, i think experience will help get one more comfortable with risky tags and knowing when to take that risk (because nobody wants to get caught) KEEP BOMBING! ALWAYS RUN FROM THE POLICE!

I appreciate it man. Thanks and that was pretty much our outlook. Even if we fucked it up, we made use of a good wall, got up bigger than anyone else around there and it gave us good experience. My whole piece on the mickey wall was high quality paint (and unfortunately we had to scrap two purple mtn hardcores on attempting to make our mickey mistake look like everything blended) but the yellow I used was 94, and OR3O's was mtn 94 as well I believe. Something that we realized about that wall, that is barely visible in the picture, is that the bottom half of the wall is fucked up cinder blocks that are super dirty, so light colours just faded right into that shit and didn't look clean at all. I look forward to seeing some of your ups, and if you are a super green bean, head over to the "new to graff thread," it sound's a bit silly, but trust me, everything in there is worth it.

you got the right idea just work on them letters. Readable is unbeatable

[XyleneRenegade]

5295552956 wat cha think?

Looks dope! Super clean, the colors work, style elements are on point, 3d is correct and the connections carry the flow. The only thing about it that looks wonky is that curvy wall...I'd like to see it on a flat box car panel or an autorack...it definitely has that freight feel to it.

MASE - the extra line in the "S" at the top looks kinda weird other than that its pretty dope

[dankbudz]

can somebody crit the fuck outa this?

[Colors]

^^ First painted thing ive seen from you! some small things i notice is the D is way thicker than the rest of your letters, like bar widths. your first E looks a little weird and gets skinny up top, and the S sorta moves from thick bar lengths to thinner ones, but mostly just small things. Good looks though that is a nice simple!

[dankbudz]

yupyup, got some other stuff but i never messed with takin pictures
i plan on thickening up my bars next time to the thickness of the top of the R. this picture makes it look a lot cleaner then it actually was.
thanks for the good looks bro

You should bomb more and study up on letters.

These aren't too much better but they're really clean, which got me excited. Don't know why I filled the wholes like that.......blame it on the morning.

53722
Let's see....s it slightly too big, left side of the bottom bar on the p is fucked, a is fucked, top right leg on the k is fucked. red outlines a little off but i don't mind that as much. but come on....it's pretty damn clean. anything else to say is appreciated as long as it's not retarded.

53723
Same building, letters are once again a little off, especially not feeling the s. but once again pretty clean I like to think.

[Walt]

all of you need to stop using colors. go get a shitload of black and white, and do like 50 straightletters.

also, learn to paint with fat caps(ny fat, or a ap cruiser if you have the new valve rusto). makes your life a whole lot easier.


edit: ^^^this guys got the right idea

[SkateJunt]

haha thats where its atttt, black white and silver/chrome all day, onthy thing i bother to spend money on, or even rack really

[Skadeem]

Gotta do a skinny color outline for kicks though, it really helps with learning control too

lmao he has a lot to learn himself

tbh depends on who ur on about but some peoples stuff would look 100% worse without colour

[lord_plankton]

aand thats why they should learn to make good graff without color..than do fancy stuff...

[Skadeem]

Yeah yeah letters are more important. It's kinda sad we must be so explicit to these chilren. (take the hint canteen)

for talking, yes the bars are fucked but that's what happens when I get bigger. We all gotta start somewhere, etc with the generic excuses
53850
also, for those that may not know, for those that are actually racking paint and not wasting money on good shit, rusto metallics suck ass beyond silver.

[Mori]

Try a drop shadow or 3d on those ska, if you got time/paint. Would help in the sense that you can use it to even out some of those bars. Props though

[toopski]

hate black fill unless ur clean as fuck it looks ugly should just do white and black outline looks 80% better tbh

[dankbudz]

Drop the extensions

the df throws aren't that bad but everything else is.
I'll try a dropdown next time, might try a white fill now that i have sekts, its not worthwhile without a good fatcap imo though.

this shit caught the attention of a couple dts......fuck my life. gonna post it anyway. sorry i bothered you in that weird ass mood mues, i just have an innate fear of officials. on to new horizons!
53930
each one seems to be better, letters get less and less sloppy

[dankbudz]

drop the extensions on the E and A

[Skadeem]

yeah something different's gwon be done next time. i never do that when I sketch, it just keeps happening in the moment

[Dossbog]

Oface is my yoda dude, i always take notes from him

[MN Nice]

Got any more flicks of his stuff? Post em up. His throws are steeze. But really take note to how he does his stuff. Your letters are very tall and slim, and have weak definition to them. Start making sharp cuts, not just round edges.

[Trab]

My first crew piece:
http://i41.tinypic.com/148zmzp.jpg

crits are welcome

I don't like the arrow on the 'G' and the top off the 'F'

[PETER]

yikes!

['Crook']

Dude just keep practicing on papers like i do and do more simple stuff without adding any extension !!

[Norfsuthr]

yikes!
Couldn't put it better myself...

Speak that's coming along nicely, a lot of improvements from the one you posted before. I'd say the bottom of the S got too thick, the loop on the P shouldn't fold in like that unless you compensate in the shape of the hole, the A is in need of some work for real, and the top of the K could be straighter. Good progress though, respectable.

dkode you gotta do some sketches man, I see you have your own style which is straight, but simplify a bit for now and focus on bars and getting some flow. The e is pretty weak.

[Trab]

Something i did for a friend.

Quit wasting paint. Steal some phone books to draw in if you're looking for some sort of adrenaline rush. Cause that ish ain't working out at all

[Trab]

Thanks for your crits, i'm not looking for a adrenaline rush. I want to make art and destroy the city. The only difference with other people on this site is that i'm not good yet, but if i'm honest i see pieces on this site who are alot worse then mine.

[Trab]

Thanks for your crits, i will deffinetly still practice on paper. Sometimes i just want to bomb something on a spot.

[Mori]

Well a good way to destroy the city is by stealing phone books out if the phone booths to draw in. start there

[One Evil]

http://i883.photobucket.com/albums/ac31/smokeitup421/DSC03119.jpg

crtits???

next time try and clean it up a little.. like re do ur black outline around all the yellow you digg?

^ trab is right, ive seen plenty of worse shit .. Trab.. keep drawing on paper practice ur tags till u get them the same everytime 2000 times, then bomb same process, then u work with simples.. then u go to pieces, murals and ART is not graffiti homes. also practice painting on a backyard fence or find plywood to paint on so u dont ruin ur parents perfect fence! one.

[Phat 2]

we found this rusty thing parked on the side of the highway in a mountainous area yesterday.. figured why not?

thats a killer photo op phat... i bet if u go back in a year all the rust will start coming through the paint, itll make it look like its 20 years old hah

nice phat

I know man I love rusty chromes... we got old rusty ass SETUP KCW tosses on shutters and such in beirut from around '98 which I treasure so fucking much like they were valuable relics from a prehistoric era lol. He's half lebanese you know..

nothing at all.

He writes Sprae, thats just his two letter throw

And sez, that piece would be nice if your you didn't have multiple shitty tags all around and bad arrows.

[criscros18]

^^i know, what's up with the tags??

[SynOne]

He writes Sprae, thats just his two letter throw

My bad, the throw is still nice though.

[dankbudz]

oversprae, thats fresh

messed this up in many places and regret the blue 3d cause it just made it a bitch.
gotta go bigger next time too

[Skadeem]

It's pretty good but the curves could be cleaner on the s and d. Try to get a good outline with one careful stroke of the hand

[Walt]

@uknowigetup

stop using montana. buy a shitload of dollar cans, and learn to do perfect straight letters and fills.

[sez.]

ya i need to work on my tag the only letter that looks halfway good is the s. i threw them on there cuz i thought it looked to plain. i have a pic without the arrows ill post it right now. i think it looks better without them but wen i draw it on paper it looked clean like that. i just fucked it up

[sez.]

sez, you don't gotta post it every page

wasnt trying to post in every page just showing it without the arrows cuz somebody said to drop them

lol didn't read that, my b, SEZ its all good my dude good shit on that peice seems like u get up often. they fucking got me yesterday an im on probation so i dont no wats gna happep but atleast they didnt arrest me an its only a mis. but still im already on probation

[Colors]

Seder i think you should try a piece with thicker bars, usually helps the piece. And i think you should also try to make an s where the bottom part touches the looped part of the top of the s...just things to experiment with. Looks nice though, just the bar widths all vary. And idk how i feel about the bottom of that d... lol nice though keep painting

[dankbudz]

damn, probably get community service or some shit. how'd that happen?

colors, i feel ya man, I didn't notice the decrease in thickness till i peeped the photo. but that shit was tricky, had to stand on some tippy ass concrete rock to get to the tops. no excuses though..
bottom of the D IS wack but i don't really care, just something to learn from.

[sez.]

i was at a spot way out in the cuts that everybody bombs its known to be hella chill u cant even see it from any roads or anything so i was takeing my sweet ass time bombing pretty much the same thing i always bomb but huge i mean 100$ of montana huge an i was almost done i just finished the 3d an was cleaning it up an adding detail wen 2 detectives walk up on me in normal cloths thats y i didint try to run cuz i seen them coming up but didnt think much of it but they were cops saying that some one bombed all over town the prvious night an they were looking for them. they were polite an gave me props on my work told me i was a artist an said they dont trip off people painting out there so i replied so i are u sighting me then an they said cuz wen people do good work out here lil punk as kids see it then try to immatate it all over town an then there sargent gets on there ass. bull shit

[uknowigetup]

Critz please. I don't like the white or the purple I used for the drips, it the only low pressure can I had so I would have preferred a different outline color, shade color and drips, but I used mostly empty cans for this piece.

FUUUUU, I forgot some drop shadow on the back side of the W.

...Toy problems :(

And Sez, I'm sorry about what happened man. I hope everything works out for the best, good luck.

[Norfsuthr]

i was at a spot way out in the cuts...

So did you get charged or not? If not consider yourself lucky and learn to take a look around while you're painting from now on. You see people coming up then go hide in the woods for a minute and see what they do.

Also, you really have no reason at all to be using montana, much less $100 of it.

[uknowigetup]

Let the man use what paint he wants to. He's a lot better than a lot of the kids on this thread, if he has the money and the will to buy and use good paint, then let him use good paint. Just because you can't afford it and may have been painting for longer than him, doesn't give you a reason to be all bitter and jelly bro.

i love the way montana 94 smells its like cottin candy im addicted to it. dont think i could stop even if i tried. some people wake up an spark a bowl or a cig but naw i just bust a quick handy on a cardboard box thats in my pad then chill in its aroma

[smokeitup]

yeah i know, every time i paint i smell it and it reminds me of all the pieces ive done in the past. different paint smells different they each have their unique smell

[uknowigetup]

I agree with both of you. I painted last night, got some 94 and some gold on my hands, and then my steering wheel, my car smells sooo good this morning. I also keep my paint chilling in the open in my room so it keeps a nice aroma.

[sez.]

know i would stick to the style u posted the other day i like it alot more this one doesnt do it for me but i liked the other one

[uknowigetup]

Thanks guys. Yeah I fucked up my initial outline and lost the lines and I flow I was aiming for. My sketch was better, I wasn't too happy with it. only thing I enjoyed about this piece was realizing midway through that my can control was improving. Thanks sez, ill work with my other piece some more.

[SkateJunt]

lil straight i did today, got baked so i didnt even realize i forgot the 3d til 3 hours later when i looked at the flick, still any crits on the letters?
