Really depends on how much you practice. I feel like a style is constantly evolving, and as an artist I think you're always looking for ways to improve, so it's never perfect. A year or two is a good estimate. Sketching and experimenting with all kinds of different ideas is really the way to come with a unique and interesting style. Also preserve the letters, this is graffiti, it's important to maintain structure, but get weird don't let that constrain you. Hope that helps
