My name is Paes164 and I'm a professional artist. I've been painting since a teenager,
and I've been doing it for 20 years now. Find me at Paes164.com (p-a-e-s-164.com) My Facebook

your outer shape of your letter down. Get it defined with a little something into it
3D. You know kind of creating like a box shape off the letter. Now when you come through
each letter and spell your name, this 3D can run continuous, continuous, continuous, throughout
the whole name. You know get that down, cut back in, shade in your 3D, put a little smiley
face, get a high five from your neighbor, and you're done. We're going to work our way
through a block buster D, basically dealing with two blocks of the letter. So we break
down the first and you know block buster is pretty simple but definitely doesn't mean
you can't add style to it. We got our blocky D in place. I'm going to start filling it
in. Keeping it with a good outline tip in a dark color now we're going to go to the
outline in 3D of our blocky D. And a lot of times if you just want to get this done even
quicker on a larger scale switching from an outline to a fat cap will give you like a
four feet of spray and you can just blast it through. Let's finish this off with a pretty
inner outline or inner gel and there's your D for a downright sexy block buster. Now we're
going to take it to a wild style D. Just breaking your D down once again in the basic shape
that the letter D is, and just kind of elaborating off that.Adding bends and curves, maybe even
kind of working your letters together so they almost build together like a puzzle piece.
And actually a wild style is about being just really creative and combining the crazy shapes
you can to create a letter. And as we do our outline we're going to work our 3D the same
color. Aha. So we got our outline 3D done of our wild style D. We'll come through and
add an inner outline, a inner gel, always crucial in making your letters pop. Now we're
going to finish our D off with an outer outline in a bright yellow. Here's another thing about
outer outlines, you can always build up bubbles and stuff around your piece that kind of pop
off that outer gel. So you'd actually want to start with doing your little bubbles around
your piece being clean and close to your 3D, but then when you come back and actually do
your outer gel they will connect it together so it appears the outer gel is bubbling out
around your letter. Another little cool trick of the trade. And as we get done you know
we have a wild style D.
