my drunken 2cents
throwies give a writer recognition amongst his graff peers. done quickyl in a visible area is an artform alll its own. Peer writers may respect him, despite the publix looking at a throwie as trash
The throwie gives a writer basic outlining and filling skillz for the piece, the more throwies, the better outline skillz for a piece.
my 2 cents peace

if you ask me to be true to the game you got to do throwies, tags, trains, walls, everything, although you might focus on one over another. but if all you do is safer things like trains or chill spots your gay. nothings better than driving down the interstate and seeing your bomb.

i dont care whos throw up it is, if its on a train, it'll probably get gone over by someone somewhere. keep throw ups on the streets...if you can only do throw-ups on trains, you need to stop being lazy and find a spot you can piece.
the only exception for throwies on trains is on 45's or 48's, cause they're usually hard to come by...but i still prefer hollow pieces...and if you cant do these, you need to get to practicin...

yo, I think throw-ups are pretty hot, depending on the location etc. They get yer name up and you can show off your shit in crazy places especially trains and trucks . But if all you do is throw-ups, you suck. grow up and do some burners, somthing artistic. otherwise yer a bitch who can only scribble your name like a two year old.:freak:

throw ups look the best in "hard to reach" places where it takes u a minute to figure out how the writer got there! especially when it seems like you could have "only done a roller" from that spot ;-)

You're a fuckin retard.........some people choose to not do pieces (such as myself) because it's not wat we want....I could easily go out and rock a bunch of shitty lookin shapes wit 80 colors and call it a piece but I'm down for wreck, plain and simple and plenty of people feel the same way....Now go kill yourself, toy

Throws are fine but common. I would much rather see a nice piece over a wall than a bunch of throws. I strive to be uncommon. Anyone can do throws but it takes a lot of practice to be able to do nice pieces. I'm not hating on throw ups, I just like pieces more. But, I guess I think of myself more as an artist than a writer.

Not every one can do ill throwies, and not only that, Throwies are supoosed to be done in high risk areas, not to many do that either.
its not what it is, its what you do with it that counts.

throw ups are tight.
crushing is tight.
one stroke throw ups are tighter.
one stroke thow ups crushing an area of your city is even tighter.
see where i am going with this one. anyways throw ups are an essential part of your graff diet, if your going to crush, your gonna need a throwie, a one stroke and a few graff ho's.

It's funny because you know the few people who said that throws are a waste and to learn how to piece couldn't piece to save their sister's hymen.
Fucking baffoons... I want addresses. I'll trade you for mine. If you can piece my apt without getting caught you win. Sadly, I'll put up 10 bombs across the front of your place in the time it takes you to put up your outline and basic fill.
I win. Faggots.

Throwups are perfectly alright. Why not? They dont take much effort, and it gets your name out. What have you got to lose? You only need like 2 cans of paint and thats it. I do throwups all the time. So, if you've got a couple of cans laying around, go do a couple of throwups. Its worth it.

All apologies on the double post.
Chumbawumba.
thw whole idea behind graffiti is to get your name up in any way possible. doing throw ups is a necessity for doing that. think of it this way, how can you piece in a high risk area, with throups you can just go inn throw down, and be out quickly.
you got to be kidding me!?!?:rolleyes:
chumbawumba
01-03-2004, 03:58 AM
What?
Chumbawumba.
Yes they are defienatly worth it, especially when ur just starting and you want to get ur name up. They are quick and easy to do and dont use too much paint. Im a big fan of throwups. Some throwups look really wak but hey what can you do. Start off by doing heaps of throwups, then when ur hot do some pieces because that way people will respect your pieces and not just cap them.

Thinks throw up outlines as big as possible for the specific situation is best in street with no fill in color...some ass will come along sooner go over you or you will get buffed,no point in filling shit in unless you risked your self big time and you say fuck it midas well go the extra mile since coast is clear...ORR unless you racked so much fucking paint you dont know what to do with the shit cause it dont fit in your crib.

throw ups are cool, but only done well with originality and freestyled. but on the subject(ish)....the other day some toy came up to me, following brief conversation he discovered who i was and proclaimed."oh, i know you, you do that arty shit, dubs and stuff innit." this all came from the biggest toy whose best reaches are in biro on park benches! this leads me to the next question.... RESPECT FOR THOSE WHO GET UP... BUT ONLY BOMB/THROW UP/SCRATHIES..ETC..OR...STYLE MASTERS WITH TECH FILLINS/LETTERING/OUTLINES....BUT ARE NOT AS UP..?? ps. can this thread be revived, or is it in a coma?:)

throws are my main thing. Outlines are cool but u need the fill in to get respect. For roofs and such Im beggining to prefer strait letters. They are also pretty quick but look a lot better.

I.
There's a few really nice oneliners.
I don't really like filled oneliners- that's best left to a regular throw...
I had a thread somewhat like this awhile ago, and all I've ever done is just throws and fills, no pieces, no straight letters, just tags and throws/fills...for the last 2 years- and I'm quite happy...that legal stuff just looks dumb most of the time, in opinion, though.

This thread had it's run of luck, but it is closed now. Arguing of throws are worth it or not? Of course they are! It is all part of getting up. You should tags, throws, fills and pieces; a little bit of everything or even a lot of everything.
