if you have the basics down you should be able to drop a tag. there aren't any rules for your handstyle. it should be yours. just do what you think looks good.

hmm, i cant really remember how i came up with my tag, i was jus scribbleing around with my name, and came up with somin i liked..

When he said 'do a tag' i assumed handstyle, since you dont 'do' your tag if you come up with it.

Its all practice, making it flow, andafter you get that, practice it til your hand falls off

are we talking paint or paper?

either way you're handstyle is gonna be different when you paint as opposed to when you blackbook.

ummm.. no, you have to actually develop the letters and think of them before you write them, you cant just make it up one time and thats it, i can write a word really quick in school handwriting 249 times but it would be wack if its a wrod straight of without practasing the letters before hand.. hard to explain..

^ that post was half joke and half truth...
the faster you write a word comfortably, the more your personal, subconscious handstyle will show through in it... writing a word as fast as you can a whole lot can help you develop connections between letters as well as general writing proficiency

If you spent the time to make it look good, its worth it. So dont tag if it looks like crap.
