    yea..just straight practice..i know cats with ill handstyles but no other graff skills...because they worked so hard to make em dope.

    so dont do that..haha...practice each element of graff from pieces to sketches to bombs/tags/handstyles.

    ^^leave before you make yourself look more stupid than you already have.

    in any case. get some free markers or streakers from the markal site, use those for now, if you're starting out then you don't have to make big investments. and hit the books every day mang.

    Hey i'm super toy and i'm having a huge problem. Like when i started i was interested in marker work and handstyles. now when i first started i felt that i saw improvement in my handstyle with each notebook that i filled up. but now when it comes time to practical and on the streets, i'm realizing my handstyle lacks flow COMPLETELY. it's liek soo choppy, the letters touch each other, but it still looks choppy, it's obvious the letters don't flow into each other, but rather i just lay them down overlapping. like i duno how to explain it/. i'll post a pic whnei get home. but yea any suggestions?

    I'm also have the same problem with spraying my tag.

    yo, i dont know if its the same thing or not... but im a very nervous person when i go out bombing, and this leads to shitty handstyles...i have tought myself to mello out and act chill when tagging, but i still look over my shoulder 10 times a minute......

    #1 tip. make sure you got sick hands before you hit the streets. Don't go out and make an ass of yourself. I've been sketching for a while and gone through like 3 markers and 5 notebooks of nothing but marker tags, and i have YET to hit the street. Simply casue i know i'm not good enough. Don't get ahead of yourself.

    Anyways i've been working on my tag. ithink the problem was just my handstyle, it couldn't flow so i sorta started over again from the ground up i'm alot happier with it now. Maybe another week of practice in the notebooks then i'll hit the street. also gotta get my spray tag down too.

    I've been using paint for a while and feel pretty confident with it. learned alot of how to handle the can from watching videos.

    But i've only been using stock tips, going down to my hip-hop shop this friday to get some ny fats and thins. Then i'll practice spray tags.
