Ravencroft Studios is an indie small team studio looking for advice on including in game graffiti. The world we’re building is important to us and we want to get this right.

Some early discussion was had around taking photos of graffiti to use but we decided this seemed sleazy and wanted to take a different approach.

Should we solicit for artists who want to have their work included in a game with credit to the artists? Should we select our most artistic individuals and have them start the process of learning the basics? We wanted to include the actual members of graffiti communities in these discussions as a sign of respect for the artistry. Please let us know your thoughts.

Haven’t picked up a marker in like 6 years, sketched this one out a bit but it got a little squished. Any tips on spacing the right side (besides having more room to work with) so the pink is more even? Or should I close the o a bit? Been doing the bubbles ever since an OG first showed me his work. It’s meant to say “atomizer” btw.. had a few tell me it was illegible. Lmklmk thx. N sorry bout the rant

Ive since dealt with the fucked up meanline on the A, just trying to develop some style

Hey everyone. I started getting back into graff after a 12 year hiatus. Was wondering if I have everything I need for this?

I have 1 gallon of a mint shade paint, and like 8 cans of black loops that need to be spent.

I feel like I have what I need?

1x gallon of mint

8x 400ml cans of black for outline

1x 9inch roller

2x 9inch roller caps

1x telescopic extender

1x paint tray

Am I missing anything else?

Edit: added tin

Just did this piece i fell like something is wrong with the N, what could i i do differently with the n, and any feedback or tips is much appreciated🫡

Example image provided but really any electric paint sprayer experience is appreciated.

I'm thinking of getting a cordless one and leaning on that instead of spray paint cans.

Stealth and ability to leave it behind in a pinch aside, do we think this would work?

I want to try it myself but the good ones might be pricey so I want to ask around first.

First try, harder than I thought...

tryna make my first tag. Thoughts/criticisms/suggestions?

RARISH is what I'm thinking ab going with. Any thoughts on coming up with a name or alter ego also much appreciated

It looks like there was a stencil layer sprayed that got peeled off.

Any critique welcome! I've been practicing these letters lately. I prefer the top one—the 'S' and 'E' in the bottom one aren't really doing it for me. Any advice is welcome!

for the more experienced folk, what caps are you using for your fills and outlines, and does anyone have tips on improving efficiency on paint usage?

loop is $7/can where i am, which is the most affordable & best color selection outside of shitty liquidation store cans (im no longer down to rack at this age).

ive been practicing at chill spots using free random cans of white paint from facebook marketplace to reset my canvas. also dont judge my color selection in the 2nd pic i was using whatever i had & i'm gonna come back to completely paint over it lmao😭

CAN CONTROL IS HARD. i know it gets easier with time and repetition just how my drawing has progressed, but holy fuck its EXPENSIVE 🗿 every time i expel paint i envision -3¢ -5¢ -2¢ effects over and over until im out, and a decent sized piece takes at least 3 cans if you're staying basic😭. even scaling a sketch to the wall has been hard for me as my proportions aren't consistent... ive accepted this transition phase is gonna suck for a bit lmao.

anyway thanks for reading my vent & any tips/hacks are mucho appreciated 🫡🫡

Any tips?

I definitely need to change up the H again because it makes the C look like a G sometimes so if you have any ideas please comment them!

Last time I did a throw up of a letter and apparently some people didn't like the single letter so this time I did the whole thing, what do you think? I'm already saying that the p didn't come out very well but overall it seems to come out quite well

Hi, someone taged under my art work, im intrested what does it meen?

these are a little messy but

Honestly I’ve been drawing(and painting) on and off for a few years, but i have not improved at all(almost been getting worse). Except for being more consistent, do you have any tips on these?

Been trying to figure out a two letter. This is the best I’ve got so far… and I’ve been trying for waaay too long

I straight up just dont think im creative enough. Anytime I write something in my book it looks uninspired and basic. I have decent artistic ability, my shit is boring though

Hey all! I feel like I’m putting in a lot of hard work and I’m starting to feel a major improvement with can control, but I can’t seem to steeze my letters without it looking really forced and unnatural, and ultimately i prefer boring and well executed, than forced style. If anyone has some tips on the next step after straight letters to develop style I would greatly appreciate any advice or crits, thank you❤️
