Just some stickers i've been doing for daytime...tagging

Not on a blackbook, but whatever.

and kT, for your handstyle what you want to work on is flow. I can tell from looking at your letters that you kind of doing them individualised. The letters done have to be crazy for a dope handstyle, but if you flow the letters together so that you writing just in one consistant line your stuff will 100% cleaner.

Try to work on a flow like youd write a normal word but with minor changes to the letter structure

Thanks a lot Lochness, I kept that shit in mind when I was working on some new Ensa's. Tried it out, but didn't look good at ALL when I went with one consistent line, so I guess i'll keep workin on that. But I DID try real hard to bundle my words closer together, so the letters weren't as indivualised. Looks a lot better IMO. Thanks for the critique.

Anymore? on the most recent ones i've done? Past help was real cool. Critique is welcome from everybody. Need that shit to get better. Thanks for the time

Oh, and ignore the arrow and the star on the Ensa on the third pic, I dunno WHAT I was thinking. Thanks again

ALright so Im attempting to explain to you what exactly I mean.

But I cant go all the way upstairs for my camera so I tried to use BS Photoshop brushes and hand draw it on tha computer which is impossible for me.

see how i was trying to flow all of the letters together. They have the same dimension, same height, basic same width they dont have to be one line, they just need to flow together if you can follow what I mean its hard to explain

Its something you can really only get from practice. But get a newspaper and a flat tipped sharpie and write your name like 200 times changing it just a little each time with the flow and connection it will really help.

Dont necessarily take my hands and run with them but work with what you have. Sorry my example is a piece of shit Id like to give you more help but Im leaving for vacation as of tomorrow. Just keep thinking about flow and width and some uniformity in your letters and structure. Stay away from huge things on the letters for now that distract..

good luck fam

i think kT is trying too hard to make his look good to the point where it looks rushed and sloppy like doctors handwriting the way i developed my hands was making up letter structures like id make something up and do the entire alphabet over and over and over again like that that way you can throw any letters together whether youre throwing up your name set your boys tags or anything

Montana is good flow, and nice vibrant colors, but Krylons good also. as for the pens..

I would suggest a Montana marker, they go for like..12 bucks a pop, and they're about..7inches tall?

yup. thats what I use

no need to buy markers, especially montanas or krink. montanas paint sucks shit. and a krink mop could be made with little to no money and be 1000 times more efficient.
