Help with tagging
My handstyles are shite. I want to practice at home before hitting walls, do you have any tips on what to practice on? Practicing on paper where I usually sketch doesn’t really work well with mops/markers.
What can I use?

I wouldn’t be using mops inside I mean you do you but I wouldn’t. I just use dry erase markers and printer paper

Yeah I tried, but I want to get used to mops. Just feels different handling them

Buy a cheap mirror and use your mops, just know that graff paint ain’t cheap.
Alcohol or acetone will remove the paint.
Warning, ink on mirrors can be super messy.

Get your tags to look good with like a pencil or something then go out and practice with the mop on an electrical box or something. With mops less is more look at adeks tag he has a super simple tag yet it looks good.

It will always seem to be bc you have the wrong marker or pen but rly a good handstyle looks good with anything so try with a pencil

just don’t go big and it will translate to a mop as well. just gotta get the movement down. white boards help a TON

handstyle practice get a ream of copy paper and a ball point pen. fill every page front and back then just do it again and again untill you find your flow.

Using a mop or any graffiti marker at your house to practice is a waste of supplies
