  • I wish my handwriting did not look like that of a retarded five year old who writes with his left foot... you are awesome man!

    did you always have a natural nack for art and suff, or did you learn to do this?

  • @lobzdik I've been an artist all of my life, picked up a striping brush in 75, didn't care about hand lettering until 78, when I started doing alot of motorcycles. My new design lettering brushes make it easier to pick up that skill, try some they will surprise you, and I'll help when you need it!

  • What do we need to do(clean) to new brushes before using? We have a #3 striper and a #4 scriptliner, some 1 shot, smooth stroke, and your grid. What do we reduce the paint with and what do we use to clean them with and store? I'm a young artist trying to work with a new medium, thank you.

  • @TheDavid520 The sizing should be removed with mineral spirits, same as thinning the paint , you will find answers to all of your questions by watching all of my videos and get the "System" then e-mail me Steve@kooltie .com if I can help you in the future, have fun and good luck.

  • Man I wish I could rate this video man I'd give you a million thumbs up this is by far the best lettering I've ever seen

  • @dethkatt Thank you for your kind words, I hope to dazel you in the very near future with more vids. All kidding aside I have many friends that specialize in custom lettering and they are all ahead of me , but they won't do video, too bad. Guys like John Hannukaine, Phill Whetstone,, Kim Dedick, Alton Gillespie , and a bunch more on pinhead lounge, check some of them out, you will be truly dazzeled , and maybe inspired to give it a try. It's alot of fun, and you can get paid!! Good luck,

    Steve
