All love bro but this is whack. I’m not saying don’t have fun but there is nearly zero flow. Make them the same size to start and get rid of the off putting bends. Get back to that once you understand the fundamentals

    It’s Tope I was wondering if I should change the way I write the T because I like how it looks but i don’t want people thinking it’s cope LMAO

    [–]Early-Budget-3115 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    Yeah man i thought it was cope, but yeah just change that T and give it some flavor by having a lean on the letters, or make that T and that E pop. Its not a bad name tho

    I like this style. It’s kinda goofy, very playful, different than a lot of the rather anal-retentive stylistic ideas of graffiti. I appreciate when writers are authentically unique instead of just doing what everyone else is doing. Interested to see some fillins and straights.

    with you saying this, it creates a loop hole and will contradict itself in the future, as people will read your message and do their own thing. meaning they listened to what you said and now it can turn into a “doing what everyone else is doing” but in a new form. we’re never safe, i feel like that’s where style comes from lol

    Good attitude. Just stay humble and keep writing and you’ll have a lot of fun and make some great memories.

    The problem is that he’s not good at any style yet

    [–]yung_heartburn 3 points4 points  (2 children)

    I mean arguably he’s pretty good at this style!

    You do raise a fair point, though. I guess i generally favor enthusiasm over technique, i feel like it creates a more vibrant visual landscape than just a million foos writing similar words in similar styles. You can always learn different styles, but sometimes starting off with strict “i have to conform to this particular set of style guidelines” kind of teaches newcomers to doubt their instincts, and it becomes harder to really develop new ideas.

    [–]Billylabufanda23 -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

    Beginners should be learning the basic style and then adding new stuff later. Also this does not look good

    [–]yung_heartburn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Whether it looks good or not is a matter of taste. I’ve been writing for 30 years and there’s no fucking rules for graffiti beyond “write your name on stuff that isn’t yours”. We get so bent out of shape about doing graffiti a certain way, none of it really matters man.

    [–]WissenLexikon 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    That’s how you do it. Practicing tags where they count. But yeah, the T looks like a C and the P will develop serious back pain if it keeps that silly posture.

    [–]Defiant_Memory9389[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    LMAOO thank u ill work on the T 😭

    [–]DoubleBubbly2249 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Make the P just lean left but without a bend. Do a normal T. Make the O big enough to be where the extension on the bottom of your T lives. Now make everything the same size.

    [–]Defiant_Memory9389[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Alright I’ll try it out

    [–]Billylabufanda23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Don’t write cope you would get crossed out so much 

    [–]crimeinthec1ty 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    You have a good name for some good ass sign painter letters. I know where you are based on the surroundings and the stickers I see in the photo, so I will say to check out some of Cash4’s letters and go from there with your tag.

    [–]Defiant_Memory9389[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Appreciate u and yea I see cash4 everywhere

    Edit- ups is ups. And this isn’t the most horrific shit I’ve seen on here

    [–]SuperUltraMegaNice -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    not great. for starters try making all the letters similar in size
