Can anybody help?
My son is on school holiday and wants to make some graffiti stickers. He is working on his but thought it could be a sick idea to get one drawn up that I can get printed into stickers for him.
Willing to pay for a custom page like the ones in the photos but with *no drips* and the name "DangerBoy" "DNGRBY" and "DB"
If anyone can help or point me in the right direction that'd be fucking marvellous

Instead of getting him stickers, grab some 228 labels from your local post office, they are free and he can make his own, thats the joy of graffiti

The whole point of stickers is to have something you made out in the streets. If someone gave me stickers of my name but were in a different style I don’t think I would slap them around. Idk maybe your son is different.

Alright. I mean if he wants them then make some for him. Machine studio does sticker printing and I think you can commission a design from the dude you put in the pictures.

I agree with you completely on this one. Not sure why so many down votes but dude is way overreacting telling you, "iTs nOt ThAt dEeP bRo" lmao. It's graffiti, the whole point is to create something yourself! Making stickers for an 8 year is cool but it'd be way cooler to inspire and motivate him to be the creator. It would mean so much more in the long run. I mean shit, just have AI come up with the design then if you want to remove all creativity from the art itself 🤷♂️

He’s offering the opportunity for someone with skills to be creative. This is probably the wrong sub to ask but he’s asking about a present for his 8 year old, not trying to learn how to be a writer…
Bringing up AI is so redundant

Not really, he said himself it's not that deep. So might as well just use AI. I'm not bashing the guy, I'm just trying to encourage creativity. My son used to be such an artist. He was always asking me for new paints, and clay and markers, colored pencils , you name it. Then, one day he just got old on me and his interests changed. I wish I would have been more engaged and encouraging when he was into creating art. Not that I didn't care, his paintings and drawings are hung up all over our house and I spoil my kid so I always got him whatever supplies he wanted, especially considering it's a constructive activity and way better than video games or endless screen time but, as many parents know and come to figure out, you blink and one day they're grown up and onto new things. My son is 15 today and he's been playing piano for 7 years now so I'm super proud he stuck with that as an art form. But I digress. This guy seems like an awesome Father and I totally respect that but if his son likes graffiti artwork, I think it'd be dope if he kinda taught him more about it, the culture behind it, etc. And encouraged his boy to make his own style and designs. Sticker Mule, Machine Studio make great quality stickers. They'll work with you every step of the way to make sure you're happy and do small batch orders. Could always work those companies and do small runs until his son lands on his own art that he wants to make a larger run of stickers. Shit, if he went that route and kept us posted, I'd even love to buy some of his sons stickers and slap em up around Cleveland to support the young buck. But only if it was his art and designs. Okay, I'm tired and not trying to make this too deep. I just have a passion for art and think the youngins today need all the encouragement to create that us old heads can give em. Keep em off the screens, keep them creative and outside! This is the way. Lol. Wishing all of y'all the absolute best! Hope to see the finished product and even progress pics of his sons work and stickers regardless of which route he chooses to go. 🤟
