Ok, A while back i wanted to get into handstyle writing. I stared out with one of those industrial black permenants writing under Z.O.E and a pending name until I came up with something better. I boosted a few Prismacolor markers today (a pretty damn good upgrade) and some paint markers, and made up the name Lo Ark. Anyway, I know that when starting handstyle you should take it slow and develop your own style, but I was just wondering for future use, what are so handstyle techniques? I mean today I was practicing and got a really nice flair, then I tried it again and couldnt, so I was just wondering some so I could practice. Thanx h34r:
dont tag with prisma colors.... well u learned flairs already thats dope... experiment with that a lil bit n fuck around with some different shit.. i dunno.....
There are two different kinds of Montana (apparently). Spanish and German. Spanish is the stuff BS sells in the online store. I'm not sure which is better because I've only tried the German, and it's damn good.
go get a pilot or even a magnum 44... prisma colors are for like sketchin.. any other marker is cool but prisma colors are too good.. n you'll fuck up te nib... one of my friends tried doin sumthin on their shoe with 2 of my prisma colors n totally fucked up the nibs... i had to throw em out...
you can go to michaels and buy things called zig poster markers those work really well sharpe sells a magnum marker just make it up my ex girlfriends dad who does graff told me to just keep writing your style over and over and you will learn it
yo man just rack a bunch of 44's and paint markers. or make one with a pipe or bingo marker. look on bs it shows u how ps, if u make your own marker cook the ink with brake fluid. it stays 4 a long time . peaceeeeeee
Generally with handstyles (throw-up's aswell) as you keep doing them they change and advance. Sometimes it's deliberate, sometimes it's not.
blah blah blah blah STEP1: sick hands STEP 2: bite those STEP 3: throw em' up! STEP 4: collect money, bang bitches. STEP 5: bask in you fame
don't listen to the people who are telling you not to use a prisma for developing a tag. yeah they're no good to be tagging shit with because they're nice markers made for dope coloring, but your racking them so it doesn't matter. for your purposes, they'll do just fine. i've seen some dope prisma handies. it more or less comes down to the chisel tip. i wouldn't recommend using a magnum or pilot for this simply because the nib is so large. one tag will take up most of a notebook page. what i would recommend you do is get a notebook at the dollar store, and pretty much anything with a chisel tip, and cover every page with handstyles. after a few dozen filled notebooks, and a couple months of diligent practice, you should have something to work with. oh, and do what name said.
wow... im suprised that nobody gave this guy shit... the last guy asking about handstyles yesterday got raped.
