How to do Bubble Letters – Graffiti Bubble Letters Guide
How to do Bubble Letters
THE SIMPLE WAY TO START
When doing bubble letters there is a good rule to always keep in mind. Look at each letter like a handstyle letter being blown up like a balloon. A simple way to start making the letters, is to write your tag in simple capital letters. Remember a good amount of space between each letter. Now, make an outline around each letter with roughly the same amount of distance on each side of the capital letter. Remember to let the new outlines overlap the letter underneath. Hereby it becomes a whole and not just single letters next to each other. If you are having trouble getting it right, remember the log-rule and how each letter is a handstyle letter being blown up like a balloon.
How to do bubble letters from scratch is something all graffiti writers have to go through. Some writers even say that bubble letters are some of the foundation of how to draw graffiti letters. This is because when you learn how to do bubble letters you learn the structure of each letter and how to twist and turn them to make them perform the way you want to. Graffiti writes such as BATES, SEEN, CAP and TAPSMOSES are famous for their bubble throw ups. I highly recommend you check out these graffiti writers because just looking at their styles will certainly teach you alot!
