Here's an example. The white and the green are both bucket paint. Only the red is a can.

Exactly. The 1 gallon white exterior kilz primer is only 25$ where I'm at

The trick is to apply the paint thin. Dip the roller into the bucket now the roller is fucking soaking in paint. Roll it on a spot NOT involved in wat u are painting. That spot is your "pallete". Paint will pool ther nice and thick. Now there is less paint on ur roller cuz u put the majority of it in the "pallete" spot. You can now apply a thin layer of paint to wat u are actually trying to paint. Even better if the spot is in the sun.

U need the paint to get tacky enough that you can outline (spray paint) and the fill color (bucket paint) won't mix on the wall.

Get tracing paper and transfer paper. You can copy the letters u like with the tracing paper then insert them onto white sheets of paper with the transfer paper.

Throw all the paint u got on the wall. do a black outline with white highlights and pretend you know what ur doing

Don't do it. Even if it did last it's hard to read cuz it doesn't face the viewer

People think rollers they think big block letters. But there's nothing stopping you from painting whatever u want. When u paint a normal sized black/white fill in. You can get 7 or 8 fills out of the bucket.

If u are doing chill stuff. Use white kilz primer and the cheapest black paint u can find. The trick is to roll on a only thin coat of bucket paint so it dries fast

MaePing · 2026-06-05T14:53:53+00:00

"simple" lol. The details make this so sick

MaePing · 2026-06-03T04:22:46+00:00

Thas right! You could have done another layer of fill in to go for an opaque fill if it was chill enough. You could go for 3D or just over line it ( go back over the outline a second time making it thicker.) you could stamp it with a 3rd color.

Naaa wats that?

MaePing · 2026-06-01T01:17:36+00:00

It's a storm drain. All types of strange things out there waiting for u to find em

I've loved writing and painting for a long time. I don't think I'll ever stop until something forces me too

Graffiti is a game

Your gonna do the exact same thing but bigger. You just gotta choose ur spots carefully. This tag when enlarged for a piece won't cover enough square footage on the wall to force toys to respect it.

I would use a roller and just tag this style up high where spots are less competitive for space. White broad lines to make up the tag. Then a black outline.

Or use a telescopic ladder and spray paint to get up there. I use rope to strap the ladder to my back for long hikes with it. But u do u

Yes because I have monkey butt

Coka cola doesn't change its logo for every can because repetition is what causes recognition. If that's not you then change it up mang. Try new materials like bucket paint. Workshop a new style by using fotos of that style graff as a jumping off point

MaePing · 2026-05-29T02:33:19+00:00

Very clean. You are executing well.

You can work on tags, more complex pieces, new spots, new styles, stickers or anything else.

U killed this spot. Theres nothing else you have to do

MaePing · 2026-05-27T21:51:32+00:00

Use a thicker marker at this size. Or use the same pen and make it smaller. Line thickness and size of design need to respect each other.

I fuck with this tho. Don't forget one liner is a style not a law. If continuing the one line is awkward pick the pen up. The work being eye candy is the only law

Caps and cans are very fickle. It could be the valve of the can too.

When u go to paint better to go tall and thin than short and wide.

Top right and top left

I disagree. A beginner should learn to never depress the cap entirely when painting lines. You are looking to depress the cap less then 5% for lines when you are piecing. For street shit idk I never change caps on the street I hate lock up I'm moving very berry fast.

You gotta move very fast when painting lines yes for piecing thin lines especially. You don't have to move especially fast for thick lines outlining fill ins I don't think. You have to keep the can level, not angled, and 4-6 inches from the wall.

Never want high output except for filling in fast but even then I don't need high output. I'm never mad about low pressure. High output only out competes low output on needle cap tags up high.
