[BRAINE]

my blackbook is my sketchbook from 8th grade with the oil pastel shit ripped out because it makes a mess all over everything. its softcover and lame paper but i really dont care. its good for colored pencils.

[chas]

Lol. This is a funny thread. I thought I was the most toy writer here, but you need a definition of a blackbook. Pshhh.

Ha. Anyways, I had to get like 8 spirals for school, and they only asked for 2. So now I have 6 spiral notebooks lyin around. So I use those mostly. I do have a blackbook, but I&#39;m only just now writin in it. I carry around my spirals, not my black book.

I think I&#39;m gonna do somethin similar to what a guy on the first page said and I&#39;m gonna fold some paper and make a mini bible. That way I can carry that around and not look suspicious when I glance at it for help on my bombs/pieces.

Just do whatever. I grab some paper from my printer and use that when I want some legit lookin art. Than I shove the paper in my portfolio. (a cheap ass folder)

I suggest you get a portfolio, too. For when you do a tight-ass sketch on some paper and you want to be able to show it off later. They&#39;re pretty nice to have around imo.

Close.

i will actualy answer his question, instead of bieng a postwhore

I have 2 black books.

My 1st one is just a composition notebook, i just scetch in it while im at home or where ever.

Then Some guy gave me a Mini bible thing, and I cut out all the pages, and put some blank paper in it, and made a makeshift notebook kinda. And when i go out to tag, i just take a look at my mini blackbook. Its about 2 x 3 or 4 so its relitively small. I just put my tags in there.

Thats what i use. And lol made of paper

maybe i didnt understand you correctly but if you bring ANYTHING with you that you have written on when you go bombing that is one of the stupidest things you can do, if you get arrested and they find that on you they&#39;ll look for other shit like it and book you for that too same goes for cell phones with pictures and digital cameras, if i just misunderstood my bad

[Myme]

I use a hardbound sketchbook just for convenience, it&#39;s kinda nice to be able to open it up and flip through looking at your past work instead of just having a bunch of papers around everwhere..

[Skore_One]

Good for you. I use note paper. Rich bastards. And when you run out just flip the pages over and use the other side

[DizziY]

lol. The cheap mans &#39;white&#39; book. lol

Never thought of the cops checkin my books for other work. Nice catch. I&#39;m not gonna bring a mini bible. Maybe I&#39;ll bring a folded piece of paper with that single bomb on it. But not a bunch of my tags/throw-ups/bombs/pieces. And who cares if they take that piece. They already know you write that. They caught you doin it.

[nik]

yeah but if you bring a whole book you lose all your sketches, just bring a piece of paper with the sketch you want and use that sketch to bomb, theres no need for all those other sketches.

[DizziY]

Yeah, thats what I was just thinkin. You&#39;d have to ditch the book if they caught you and than YOU couldn&#39;t find it. Ya know? So I&#39;ll just bring ONE sketch of the bomb I&#39;m planning on doing.

Its just... what if you don&#39;t know what bomb you want to do. Like... what if a certain one would look best on a certain wall? Than you&#39;d have to wait until next time.

[nik]

plan it out..

Well in my own idea i just use a nice 70 page MEAD notebook.
It was like 75 cents at the dollar store.

[DizziY]

Same here. I have a blackbook, but why fill it with shitty art?

[tortured artist]

ive never purchased a &#39;&#39;blackbook&#39;&#39; in my life, an i got about 20 layin around my room, an it doesnt gotta be a damn "BLACKBOOK" to keep ur art in it, get ne notebook or what ever u want

[MegamanX]

My blackbook is a Mcdonalds bag full of paper towels, napkins, and toilet paper. Sometimes I even piece on salt packets.
