Okay im going to show you how to start off on your graffiti journey

so heres my first tutorial:

1: look at your keyboard.

2: copy out a letter, exactly like it is on your keyboard, in pencil a few times

3: Outlining, go round your pencil outline with a black pen or any dark colour

4: 3D, just under your letter make it look 3D by doing as the picture shows..

5. Colour, pick your colour, pretty simple really

6. Design, using your colour you can easily make your lettering stand out... if you can't think of your own design just use mine

7. Pick out a few letters, for you word (obviously) and use all the things i just showed you to make....

AND THERE WE HAVE IT, graffiti made easy...However, you may want to space your letters closer together to make it look better, in the next tutorial im going to show you add-ons to make your graffiti look more professional

sorry for poor image quality.

Okay so you've done the basic stuff, you've practiced your lettering to max potential, you've studied all the full aspects of your keyboard...now its time to go technical


so changing your lettering is the second step to mastering graffiti...

Try "warping" or inverting to change your letter around, maybe to one point.

Now you see i should have done more letters but i cant be arsed now so like it or lump it.

Add-ons.
Now my add-on in this next picture is kinda silly, but its just random and it looks good

Image0117 - The Graffiti Thread

most people like to use arrows as add-ons for their lettering like so...

Now finishing off my letter with a bold outline & design looks like this:

View: 1600x1200



Now il draw out a few add-ons for people to try and use in their work later...

anyway now you have your letters & add-ons done you have your word and stuff, you wanna make your graffiti stand out...

so heres how to perfect your 3D...

1. Draw a dot in pencil on the page anywhere you want your 3d to go..

Image0120 - The Graffiti Thread
View: 1600x1200


i did it in black pen so you could see it.

2. with a ruler, make a line from every end point of the letter facing your dot

Image0121 - The Graffiti Thread

3. After doing all that it should look like this

Image0122 - The Graffiti Thread
View: 1600x1200



4. next, use lines to how thick you want your 3d to be like so

Image0123 - The Graffiti Thread
View: 1600x1200



5. normally you would rub out the lines up to your 3d however, i don't have an eraser, so i just coloured it in black

This might be somewhat unrelated, but could you make one saying "Sharenator"? We think that'd be cool!

It's not really the design or color or 3D that i struggle with, it's making the sweet letter designs and arrows and putting those all-together into one.
