    if its a long time nickname that people would recognize you as, you probably shouldnt write it

    nah wouldnt happen plus people that know me by that name don't live here anymore, plus graff culture is pretty much nonexistent here except for 1 guy whose tags ive seen here and there and 2 pieces. and about a year ago someone put up the obey andre the giant face everywhere. im pretty sure there isn't even a law against it unless i deface some monument

    where do you live Mc Satan? remember that a tiny spark is all it takes to start a wild forest fire...
    the graffiti scene over here was the same as yours only a few years ago, it's slowly starting to pick up with time.

    and to the guy asking, the best can/cap combo in my opinion is any high pressure can (mtn hardcore for example) + a level 5 golden fat cap

    it could if you realllly work on it.
    and listen, take my advice and just sit there looking at photos of simple, straight letter pieces scattered across the forum and try doing stuff like em quietly on paper...
    I don't mean any hate or diss here, but you gotta talk less, read and sketch more... look for the simples that are posted in the intermediate thread and see if you can do anything similar.

    take his advice, because the shit your doing now sucks, and it hasnt progressed much. To really start on the path of becoming a good artist you need to look and listen, yeah you can ask questions and what not here and there, but you really need to put in work and listen to the people who have already started from somewhere similar to where your starting... even if your not trying to "move that fast", if you produce shitty work and arent getting any better, different people on here are going to keep telling you the same exact shit and ultimately be very annoyed with you

    I happen to think a high pressure can like tall rusto or a molotow tar black burner can with a pink dot is the bees knees. Fat thick lines for throws and major flares for hands, I dig it. Or also for handies I can digg a fuckin medium to low pressure can with a soft thin cap like a grey dot cause you can get some pretty sweet slow moving crisp controlled flares

    oh a tall rusto and a fat cap is an orgasm giver
    I disagree with you on the skinny cap + low pressure can combo for the handies though... you need to have extra steady hands to pull off clean, flowing lines that way. I say high pressure + fat cap for all kinds of handstyles, bombs, throws...

    ^no probably not...

    @phat its all about preference breh, I got my own hand down with a low pressure can and a thin, I just move as fast as would with a fat and put the can real close to the wall. It creates some soft ass flares. Most the time when you see flares the handies are usually pretty big in size, the softness lets you put small flared tags in small places. Idk tho man, you should play with it, you'll probably end up liking it

    well you know if there's some king's piece up there, I wouldn't wanna go over him. I wouldn't want some big head after my shit, ESPECIALLY if I stole one of his heaven spots. heaven spots are valuable

    It's actually a long abandoned train track.he did two clear outlines and a clear peice, but left lots of space. The reason why he's the only one to tagg it is because its about 75-100 ft in the air, and really,really old.

    You realize that one tag doesn't give you respect that you deserve, right? Guessing by your basic question "the respect that you deserve" is still that of a toy, even if you hit that spot you'll still be a toy.

    *sigh* I realize that. I realize that one H.S wont make me a king.I'm just trying tag somewhere that might just get me killed if i slip, and was hoping to get some advice from someone with experience.
