so... you learned everything in graff on youre own... u learned what 3d was, what a highlight was etc.. ALL on youre own. false. when i got piecing with my crew sometimes ill ask or get asked questions like yo how would i do this shadow on my sketch etc,.. fact is most ppl learn from others.. most oldskool writers... learned from the olderoldskools haha... and the first ones.. well ok they learned shit on their own... but ya thats what they did... SHIT....ever see taki 183's first shit? fuck most skool teachers have more style in their handwriting then he did... [/b][/quote] im not saying i learned everything about it im saying you cant have someone teach you graffiti you learn about it by looking at other peoples styles and forming your own
well i think its a good idea...pretty much 90% of toys are toys not because they dont have talent or potential but no one guides them into how to do what....why spend a year getting the basics of 3d when u can learn it in 1 class
that sortta defeats the purpose of learn on your on? i didnt have a pro teach me, and then i think we will have a bunch of toys who took the classes running around
i think its better to learn on your own.... whats the point?? what we do is illegal, why would they teach it in school? the entire purpose of graffiti is to do it, get good, and be remembered. and those who take time to do it right get ripped off if there is a class for it... its stupid. its kinda like a graffiti t-shirt... it look kinda like it, but its not real -IMITATED-
I think graff school is definetly NOT the right thing to do... Fuck that commercial ass shit...a bunch of generic toys running around thinking their the shit cause they came from some suburb ass "graff school". Nigga fuck you, graffiti is something learned over time, with gained experience...because graff school ain't gonna teach no toy respect, and the unwritten rules of the game. I'll slash anyone that goes to graff school..fuck u.
Plus if they have records of you going to that school then you could be a prime suspect in graffiti in your area..
Pros: -good feedback from dope writers -a whole class on can control (something most BB writers lack when they finaly make it to the streets, you know who you are) Cons: -only in french -might be looked down upon by the self made Conclusion: it might be worth it, i dont really know, its not really my cup of tea personally.
funny thing... evak graduated in the Deans list from fitti school... View attachment 156605 View attachment 156606 v-v-v-v-v-v-v-V-UNIT!
it would be cool to go and learn some new techniques cause no one in this city would give me the time of day, but its still kinda played out
i think its a good way to bring back old school roots. back in the day where your mentor did your outline for you and all you did was fill, until you got the basics down. or the idea that "real" writers are there to help the "toys". or the idea of writers getting together to help everyone improve on their styles. ....but when did that ever involve money?! you didnt pay to sit at the writers bench but somehow now "real" writers seem to think they are worth something. silly how back in the day they were worth alot more, but their worth was based on advice not money. the idea of improving and learning from the best is a great idea, the idea of putting a price tag attached to that is capitalism at its worst.
what I dont understand is.......why does EVERYONE hate on the toys? because, honestly, at one point in time, EVERYONE was a toy. and how did they get better? practice, and help from more experianced writers. This is an outlet (for a kid like me) who dosnt have many experianced writers to help him with his can control/characters/3D/old school, or w/e technics we need help on. Yes, I practice, yes, I work on my own style, yes, I still fucking bite (dont lie, everybody, at one point in time, has bit) and there are times, when all I want is a little help. but I cant get it. I think this would be a great oppertunity to get better.
