About graffiti letters
Graffiti lettering grew out of tags: quick signatures with a marker or spray can. Over time writers developed whole styles, from blocky throw-ups to the wildstyle letters that interlock and twist.
This generator uses a spray-paint display face with the soft, speckled edge you get from a can. Pick a paint colour, add an outline in a second colour, and turn on the hard shadow that gives letters depth. It is meant for posters, covers and mock-ups where you want the look, not for painting a wall.
If you want to draw graffiti letters yourself, begin with plain block capitals, then thicken the strokes, add a bevel where two strokes meet, and finish with an outline and a highlight. Practise on paper before you try a surface.
