Right.. If you havent read my 1t graffiti egg, then read it! Its called ’How to: Graffiti/Tag’.
Anyway, once you have constructed your basic letters, like i showed you in my 1st grafiti egg, heres how to spice them up even more and learn better styles!
But remember you wont be able to read my egg and then go and be the best writer in the world, you need to practise non stop for hours, days, months and years!
Heres my 1st letter anyway!
This is a basic R that you will of learnt how do construct in my other egg.
Once you have mastered this you can move onto the next step!
This may look alot different, but really its the same letter a bit distorted, i have bent some lines, added some chunks, and created a stylish letter.
The next step is rubbing out the unwanted parts to get the actual outline of your letter! Then you should outline the wanted lines with a fineline or somthing thin! Prefferebly black!
Like this...
Now you have outlined it, and have your letter, you may want to add fancie bits inside the letter! Here is what i have done to mine, but you can use your imagination to come up with different things if you want!
Next off we have to do the 3D! Heres how its done (I didnt explain it very well in my last egg so i will do it again!...To do 3D you have to decide which angle you want it to be facing. On mine i have donw it although we are looking from the underneath it, on the left. I have done this by drawing lines from each point or corner of the letter, facing the same direction, and then immitating the line parralell to it, like this (do it in pencil 1st, you could use a ruler if you wantred aswell!).
Now you have done that, you can outline the 3d bits and rub out the pencil and shade the 3D bits in to make it look better, and maybe add some things on the outside of the letter, like this.
Try experimenting with other letters!
This is what i came up with!
Well, i think thats just about all i can tell you! The rest is up to you! Good luck and dont get caught!
Dec 10, 2006 4:06 pm - This is pretty much the same as your first egg, which I liked very much. Because of the similarities, 3*. I’ll vote tomorrow; my point limit is up for today. ;)
Dec 10, 2006 5:04 pm - 5* + Favourites + Me liking the egg quite much.
Although graffiti is more about your own style not following this. However I really like your wildstyle... err style.
Dec 10, 2006 5:23 pm - I like your style, just stop putting so much shit inside the letter. If you didn’t do that it would look real nice. Good egg. 4*s
Dec 10, 2006 5:49 pm - ... Yeh dont fill the letters with crap, i dont know why i said to, i never have before :S lol..And sorry that its similar to the other one :(
Dec 10, 2006 6:30 pm - really good egg. i’ve tried to make some pieces before but they all sucked. i tried to make one using how you explain and it actually turned out well.
Dec 11, 2006 3:49 am - *5 cause i think they are pretty darn good. I use to do that all of the time, but i did it on black paper with white carcol penil. Can’t spell right now , just woke up again. sorry for the spelling here.
Dec 11, 2006 5:14 pm - haha 5 thats pretty sweet dude i do this all day in skool writing my name. my teachers usually get pissed. o and the potato thing is friggen sweet i love the song. boil mash em stickem in a stew
Dec 11, 2006 5:20 pm - Nice. I liked both this one and your first one, it’s not that different but whatever it’s good, I don’t really write but I like to draw. Your steps are very simple and produce great results, you should make a third egg about colours and all that. -5-
