i still remember you saying, that you stopped driving a truck and managed it to be full time artist, because of youtube - this is what happens to me now. So cool. i paint my last commissioned electricity boxes these days and become fulltime youtuber this winters. 😎😎😎 thx for your sub - some cool videos are coming next weeks.
I love Smoe because of the broken english, the fact that he stops painting to tell us how soft his friend's dog's fur is, and a little because of his graffiti skills.
I love the background. The pieces... those lines... are SOOO CLEAN that the contrast with the grungy background is great. It makes the pieces shine even more, and I love the messy scribbly tags reflecting the roots of your art.
I love the background. It's the yin n yang, up-down, push-pull, it's showing the duality, what is ugly to some and beauty to others. Also, the growth, like you said where we all have been to what is possible.
That's a 100%...I grew up in the Bronx doing urban art in the 80s, and I did a lot of black & silver pieces and throw ups....over a lot of dirty wall. The back ground is the closest you can get to capturing that true graff street perspectives. Salute 2 a great idea.
@Slimz Beats Actually you're right. I think I confused what the original comment meant. It makes it pop in the literal sense. As in it makes the 3D texture really pop out. I only meant I don't like the trash graffiti around it. The way he makes the shading with the brick background is excellent
Also durch diese geile Schattierung wird nen geiles Piece zu nem Burner. Unnormal was das für einen Unterschied macht. Sah selbst ohne Background schon heftig aus, wie die Pieces auf der Wand schweben. Absolut top! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
As an 80's kid and graffiti artist myself, I absolutely feel like the background fits perfectly. It's no different than throwing up a piece on a "blank wall" that's covered in chicken scratch. It's almost a sign of validation for the new artists who are using that wall to practice on. It's kind of like saying, "yeah...this is actually a good wall. Here's a clean piece for inspiration".
I like that you are a humble person. You do not use your "Fame" to disregard or disrespect other writers, especially those toys coming up right now. Keep up the good work!
Man, this is DOPE! Extremely awesome art piece. The color palette you guys picked it's so so good. In my opinion you guys achieved 100% the goal for this piece. It shows exactly what you were going for.
Absolut fett! Normal geht Rot mit Grün oder Rot auf Blau ja garnicht klar. Aber durch die Wahl der mid tone colors am Grün und Blau, und die richtige Menge der jeweiligen Flächen, merkt man das garnicht. Eine Leistung die nur ein 5 Sterne Koch des Graffitis ab zu schmeken vermag. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
Here in america you could make a living painting as advertising for bars and clubs.... Your work would be seen by millions for years to come.... Beautiful work i might add
Amazing. There's something special about creating something so dope from nothing but quality products, your talent, and imagination. Love that feeling when you kinda blow your own mind when you love something you did. Like, pride and growth.. it's crazy. So good, my dudes.
I'm a graffiti Artists since 1985 I'm now 48 and I'm done now due to ill health,but over the years I've seen a lot,but I love ure style,so meet love it. Keep the art alive,I am hip hop...... 110% imprest,I've subscribed to ure channel,good work....
@@SMOENOVA well at fist I wasn't much cop,but I got into hip hop at about 1983ish and the hole thing just gripped me,the music,the cloths,the graffiti,even the scratching,all of it...took me a while to become o.k. at it I guess, but seeing your work makes me feel I'm 12/13 again when I had my brake dance crew,such a buzz from it all... And yes o.k. we were called electro crazy breaker's,🤪 when hip hop was the shit... To old now to run from cops,but I loved the graffiti side of it... It others imagination you get to see... Thanks for the feeling,love ure work,in old school terms,it's sick... Nuff respect...🥰
@@SMOENOVA could u let me know what I need in order to do graffiti,on a tablet ,with an app... I'm old school still use a pen and paper,but IDE like to use what I saw u use in the vid of ure studio.... I've no idea what I need to move into the present,as I'm stuck in the past....
Awesome videos. Thank you for teaching me a few things. I love learning. I am trying to live my life like i truley want and that must be filled with the things im most passionate about and so when i feel a pull towards something i love i have to learn what it takes to do it. I have tattoo gear that ive had for a long time and instead of diving in and getting the practice i need i spend all free time painting and drawing and wood burning and beads and wire! Im feeling good everyday doing it. But i have no expectations on making an income from it. Not right now anyway . I have been working on building my supply of art peices for the last 4 years with the thought that i would have myself a show. Like at a local art shop. Or sell my peices to a lounge or a bar/restaurant or smoke shop.. or my favorite idea is getting a business license and sell on the streets of Seattle and Portland. . But i feel my art is never finished. I cant give it up if its not done right.?do you ever feel that way about your creations? Like there is something missing. Some thing important? How do you deal wit it?
I think I agree with the wife. Clean brick background might be better. Maybe some grunge around the bottom and/or some dripping green streaks from the top down. But no NOOB tags. But dude! BRAVO!!!
Can I ask professional question..? How do you keep track on your budgeting for projects and what is needed for to maintain what is essential for the bills (like house, rent, electrical etc)?
Hey man! Wonderful question - and it is, what breaks most artists neck - not the bills, most times the fact that you need to safe money for the taxes. I in person need to make 5000€ a month to pay all my dues, from elextricity to taxes including holidays, family time, buying a new computer, material, everything. I track everything that I buy, and write it into an excel sheat, give those things categories, like "dumb shit" "investment" "material" "rent" "car" etc. - and at the end i can always see, where i spend too much money, I can compare the years, etc. ... funny fact: all my clothes are second hand, i do all renovations and repairs at the house on my own, and drive a rusty car...
@@SMOENOVA Der TH-cam Algo hat mich hergebracht..:-)Junge Junge....Scheiss Steuern....Ohne Worte Und du machst das Geld nur durch Graffitti Aufträge? Und danke nochmal.

I like your background idea. Its a good one. I like how you created the 3D effect without using any transparent paints and how you create your shading without using transparents as well. Good work man
Me either. I am a freight train painter from New Mexico. I usually just do panel pieces. I have a friend who since the early 2000s could use a wal mart dollar can to create transparent type effects. Its cool how he did it but Im not a fan of them either. I just recently followed you on instagram my name on it is @reytoo424. Check out my work if you want to see some frieght pieces that we are doing here in the southwest US
i still think throwups are a waste of cans - yes i started with ugly tags, but always underneath a piece that looked as good as I was possible to paint.
The backround is DOPE! It created the contrast that was needed. An idea is to make 3 or more brick templates that are interchangeable to minimise the repetiveness look that can result sometimes from this effect.
The Text is By Far Clean all ready, The Back Ground is Dirty and Makes not just a Wonderful History but Great Balance making the entire peace Beautiful. Graffiti 🔥
Very cool. I wouldn't even know it wasn't a real brick wall and the added little features just adds to the entire piece. Masterpiece. You guys are very talented.
Background is awesome, you guys brought the street essence to the backyard. I loved the fact that tags are from many painters who I watch vids too! Amazing job, well done!
You have excellent walking technique 😂. And seriously talented. I love that 3D effect, bravo!

The Background is perfect in my opinion, because it contrasts (and respects) the roots as well as showing off the evolution Graffiti has had. Perfect!
yeah, that was our plan. so happy it came out so well. thanks!
evolution would have fill-ins/Throw-ups...
He's right we all start with some tags . background captures the essence of graff

Amazing piece the background really make the whole thing pop
in germany we say "brett" to a very good piece - so your name fits perfectly :-) pop brett
nah the background brings the whole piece down imo. It's a real shame

Came out dope SMOE & BIATSCH join-up and the back ground pops with the colours in and the pieces off the wall ..Word !! 🔥🔥🔥
thanks Tibor! I was so insecure myself about the concept... making ugly tags into the stencil background was reeeeally hard... hahaha such a pain.

solange der "grauwert" der farben einen hohen kontrast liefert, is das völlig egal meiner meinung nach.
the background is on point, really emphasises the cleanliness of the main pieces! killed it 💪
Like I wanted to - but I was so confused while doing this video, that I was not sure about the concept anymore!
18:13 Yoo this is the real magic !! Supa dupa dope pieces !!!
hahaha, yeah, this was not expected, but one of our windows reflected the sun! THat was dope!

thanks man, that was our plan... but it was so hard to tag into the stencils.... i was insecure about background aswell 😂😂😂
first time I see someone's toying the background on purpose :D I like it Nice vid Smoe!
why is that toying the tags dont look bad at all
Reminds me of growing up in New York and seeing art on dirty walls. The background is on point.
thanks fausto!
I love it. Im definitely going to use a brick stencil soon in one of my pieces. love your work man. 2020 is your year
good luck and a lot of patience! yeah, we will see what 2020 brings us!

I think I agree with the wife. Clean brick background might be better. Maybe some grunge around the bottom and/or some dripping green streaks from the top down. But no NOOB tags. But dude! BRAVO!!!
