Talking about weird shit happening, there is a train yard about 10 maybe 15 minutes away from my house and i wondered to where they actually keep them at bay so off i climb over this small fence through some trees right next to a fuck off huge spiked fence and basically walked around the side of the yard and im looking into the yard and seeing loads of vans and security building things like portable classrooms then i end up in a field with about 30-40 sheep staring at me hahah then they started to follow me around so i slowly move back the way i came thinking i was going to be spotted with all these bloody sheep behind me... so random

weve a yard too about 15 mins away but i got and still gets (rarely) hit since early 90ties, not easy due to all the fkn security. but its fun.

i honestly don't see why they have so much security at train yards and shit, just lock up the cars and let it go, they're ugly ass train cars anyway, who cares if they get graffed up. If train yards were easier i think it would take more graff off the streets too. Just my 2 cents, i feel like people wouldnt care as much about graffiti on trains as they do graffiti on walls

Plank you in the UK? security is usually there to stop thieves stealing the copper wire and shit they can sell basically. I did see at least 3-4 cars in bay to be washed though on the way back. Didn't fancy getting fucked for trespassing when i wasn't even going to paint or anything. Oh and those 3 spike fences look savage cant imagine the pain you would be in if you slipped on those fuckers

anyone know any cans i can rack skinny caps off of.... like brand, can name, isles, store would be greatly appreciated im sick of only using rusto fats. Cans in canadian tire and home depot would be best

[Fury]

I go to into Michael's a lot when I need caps and just head to the spray adhesive section. I take the elmer's cap obviously, but there are some other cans with NY Skinny's on them. I don't know the brands or anything.

There's also some all black caps that are kinda skinnier than stocks.

well i found a picture of someone with one of those fences up his ass.

Looks like the easiest way to get around it would be to loosen the bolts at the top/bottom.

a fence like this?



these types of fences are common in the uk at least.

some yards you can walk straight in.

is flat black better than gloss? also for a 5 letter straight (NOISE) just a fill outline and basic 3d or drop shadow and maybe a forcefield, how many cans of paint would that use up?

[Eclectic Boogaloo]

flat is better

[ribcage]

gloss is shinier, hence the name... i digg the shiny. And amount of paint depends on how big your boutta do it. if its gone be as tall as you, or in the 5-6 foot range, get 2 can for fill 1 for outline and 3d 1 for 2nd outline. but you gonna want a good amount of fill color in case you fuck up the outline ya digg? It also depends on brand because they got different coverage.I mostly fucks with the rusto. When I do a straight letter i usually fuck w/ 2 different fill colors and use a can of both colors. so if ur doin 1 color you gone need 2 cans...

Kinda a difficult and vague question to answer because all the different variables. After you start paintin you'll just know how much you need

[ian]

word, just havent painted yet, gearin up to find a chill spot or somethin this summer and just curious as to how much i should be bringing yakno? thanks tho

[Fury]

If you're just painting for the first time, just bring a dollar can of white and a dollar can of black. Don't really worry about going hella big yet, just make sure the letters are proportional and shit.

But to answer your question, I've done a 4 letter straight 5-6 feet tall and I almost used 10oz (probably about 2oz left in the can) for the fill and force field. For the 3D, I probably used about 2oz of paint. For you, if you go that big, you'll probably use a full can of paint for the fill, unless you make it hella dusty.

hmmm thinkin about doin a roller at that spot i said about just attach some long stick to these short rollers i got heh.

[ribcage]

^is that a question?

[nah!]

it is now

oops meant to ask for information but i wasn't thinking right heh

OK just tell me any info on roller pieces.

[weedeater]

how big are you trying to go, or are you just trying to use a roller for a fill

[ribcage]

well rollers are probably one of the easiest ways to get up. Theres nothing really tip wise that isn't common sense... wear clothes you dont mind paint splattering on and if ur gonna be close to the wall/painting high spots, where a hat/beany/shirt or somethin on your head so u dont get paint on your face or in your hizzair... other than that rollers are pretty straight forward

[Phat 2]

ergh! this brings back bad memories. i got bucket paint in my eye coz i was using an extension to paint high. that bitch freakin hurt! i had a red eye for about a couple weeks and i couldn't open it too much, and it was watering all the time and shit... fucking hated it... i dont wannaa remember lol

but yeah, ribcage said it all right
dont forget to take an extra bag to put your messy shit back in when u wanna go home

[weedeater]

plastic bags are great for that, ive left rollers tied up in a wal mart bag for more than a week, and when i took it out, it was still wet, cleaned up just like it wouldve had it been fresh.

Can someone help me choose my tag?
I need something to go along with the letters B, R, and K only because I'm really comfortable adding style and flow to those letters.. I could just put BRK, but I don't wanna seem like a gang or something..
