Do not do that, or you will end up with a handstyle like this guys, which is just plain stupid looking.

Look at other writers handstyles. There are ways to connect certain letters that you havnt even thought of (or you would not be posting here, no?) that this will help you with.

There is a FORM to handstyles, its not just writing your name as fast as you can Its gotta have flow and style, and you dont get that when you dont even think about what you are doing and just scribbling shit.

GM's right....and a lot of writers get toyed on cuz of a lack of good handstyles...study other handstyles, and DON'T start off super fast....i suggest taking ur time, getting the style down pat, THEN work on speeding it up.


so many ppl neglect working on handstyles




Think about it, you have writers learning the ins and outs of entire transport systems, risking serious injury even death, arrest and criminal records that would limit your opportunities for the rest of your life, for what? To simply paint a picture, does this seem logical to you? If the answer is no then it is most likely that you don’t fathom the idealism behind graffiti.

i dont get why u ppl connect ur tags , u dont have to connect to get a good style , sik ur tag is not good at all , wiggle ur letters a bit dont leave em straight (i dont see a simple curve in any of ur letters) , it looks like when u did ur tag u closed ur eyes and started scratchin on paper , its hard to read and looks nasty.
look at other ppls tags and try to get some ideas , and dont bite.
