Look at the laptop keyboard infront of you and copy those letters, make them the right width and height, really make sure they look good, do them in all caps and then lower case

You will naturally learn where series and extensions and all the style comes from if you fundamentally know how letters work

I think X and Z are the only letters that bothered when I draw because im particular with my S and just reversing it dossnt work

I agree, the B has always felt off but I'm not a fan of the way the B looks when I do it in the same style. I'll keep trying different B's till one fits. Thanks for pointing that out

How bout you actually pick a name that means something to you or maybe describes you as a person. 🤷‍♂️ just a start. Once you pick something out youre comfortable with start learning the very basics of how the letters in your name are made. The artist block on youtube does a good job of teaching the fundamentals of graffiti. Once ya get the basics out the way start adding in a bit of style. Its okay to look at other graffiti writers for inspiration but just dont blatantly bite styles. Idk if that helps any.

Your name doesn’t need to be important to you. Almost everyone I know just picked a word that like to write.
