    Take my input here with a grain of salt, as I'm also a toy, but, I think that you can, provided you can do a high-quality piece. As a general rule, only paint over someone else's piece if A) they are alive and B) your piece will be in some way superior. Throwies go over tags and pieces over throwies. I think a fill takes precedence over hollows, in the same vein.

    This year I want to try digital graffiti as a beginner, even though I still like to draw on paper. I know there are mutiple softwares/tablets that I can choose from and there is a learning curve to this, but my question is about layers.

    The first layer of a rough sketch do I attempt all letters or have a seperate layer for each letter (Ex: Sketching "ABC" letter 'A' would have layer 1, B layer 2 or would it be easier to sketch all letters in one whole layer/group) and then repeating the same process for a second layer adding extension, and third layer adding color/3D/outlines etc...until you have your final piece finished?

    Any advise is greatly appreciated!!!

    I’m not an expert on this but I would say less is better. Start with 2 layers, 1 for background and 1for letters. And If you want to add some objects in front of everything then add 3rd.

    As in everything start with basics, after that you can start adding layers (1for each letter etc.) and experimenting.
    You can allways group layers together after your’e done. Some softwares can make 3D and outlines for you too.

    Do you know that how has bansksy been able to keep his identity a secret for so long? He does illegal graffitis, but he never does mistakes and i think that nobody hate his graffitis.

    When sketching does the first letter always determines how the rest of the letters are going to flow(extensions, chips, etc..)? I'm constantly trying different things so I don't repeat the same letter in the same style when doing these battles, but sometimes my brain is like...ok how is my next letter going to fit in with the previous letter.

    Am I overthinking it or criticizing myself too harsh? Do any of you have a similar problem.
