[upper90daynnight]

AXIL just go as simple as u can, before you can do graffiti you need to be able to draw letters, try drawing this freehand on paper and make the letters even in porportion and the bars the same thickness, you do know what bars are right? AXIL

[upper90daynnight]

maybe make the bars a little thicker
then that though

[upper90daynnight]

hey bushido, i know you have probably heard this a million times but my advice here is a little different, simples are boring but what you need to do is first draw out the letters as simples in pencil, all bars same thickness and get all your porportions right, then go back in and slowly add flares and change the angles and curves of the letters, start with small changes and get feedback, and if your doing good then the flares get bigger if not you work till they are, but keep working on it man, u got lots of potential

[Axil]

you mean like this ?

59463

[upper90daynnight]

YES!!! haha there u go now thats a start, now work on making all the bars the same width, and i mean like exactly like the horizontal bar on the A isnt the same width the whole way across, and work on making it more clean, work on that and then once you master the simples then you can start tweaking and developing your own style

[SynOne]

^ YES that's what you need to be doing. Thicken the bars a lil though, it'll make it more steezy

[Axil]

so basically i am just redrawing that until i get it perfect?

[aaesoo]

bushido the BUS is actually pretty good but the H is wack and i dont even know what the fuck is supposed to be happening at the end of the D.
dank that effect especially with the cuts is ill man.
mn nice i like the 4eyez one alot better than your mues shit. you could just change how you do mues tho rather than change your whole name.

[dankbudz]

stick with MUES... learn to do an M... thats no reason to give it up... giver-uper..
it just looks like ur doing the same M every time, pull some inspiration from somewhere and try new shit out. but don't bite like SynOne
you should toss them extensions on the M if you are stuck too...

[Jiska Matos]

59832 something new

[Axil]

@Jiska n1

[PETER]

is that a pissed off banana?

[DIC3]

Started Graffiti a few days ago. After tons of practice, I finally made a full throw-up.
59838

[TastyMcNasty]

that is not a throw up, that is a piece. and a shitty one at that. you need to go simpler man, i;m getting tired of say this on this site, but KEYBOARD LETTERS!!!!!!!!!

[sadgeh]

throw up? Where? Dude thats not a throwie but for the crits slow down, read the new to graffiti thread at the toys forum here and take a lil more practice and then come back here.
And what are you spastic with that shaky lines.

[Hick94]

Dice all i can say is draw keyboard letters to get better structure...
and btw these are throw ups
59843

[Shit Outta Luck]

Haze/SE3, SaneSmith, Seen and SP1 are my shit. I love them so much.

[aaesoo]

59590

bump for crits.

and jiska those characters are tight man.

[DIC3]

Thanks for your opinions guys.;) Next time I'll be sure to keep it simple, and I'll get more practice.

[Axil]

@hicks nice :P

[upper90daynnight]

Heres a sketch for a bigger piece59906

[upper90daynnight]

im thinking about posting that one real soon

[upper90daynnight]

and crits please
or can i start posting on the intermediate thread?

[aiko]

dude if you want crits, rotate your photo

[SynOne]

^ What he said. Rotate your potato.

[Shit Outta Luck]

Your K is a little off, doesn't look right imo. Your E goes in too much (that's probably just me though) and the bottom right of your U is a little thin. And those extensions are eh, at least your letters don't suck and you didn't try to put 301241 fucking arrows. Good job overall. Not intermediate worthy though.
And fuck both of you^ turn your heads.

[TastyMcNasty]

and crits please
or can i start posting on the intermediate thread?

go way simpler. you gotta walk before you can run bud, and crawl even before that. you are no where near being able to post in that thread. no offence. you're bars are consitent though, just even out those letters, and lose the added on shit and it'll get better.

[DIC3]

Definitively better than mine.

[PETER]

the perspective on your can characters is bad, letters are lack-luster, extentions need work, and need to clean up your 3d a bit (some places it's visible in the "paint cloud" others not at all it wouldn't be entirely missing anywhere if the letter is visible).

[Axil]

I am taking everyone advice on how to get better what u guys think on this?

59907

[SynOne]

Axil - Looking better, but your A is HUGE compared to the rest. Try to keep them close to the same size.

My bar widths got fucked on this one. I still liked the outcome though.

59908

[Axil]

I Like it apart from the E for some reason it looks like a M flipped so try making it a straight line And what do you think off my stickers :)

599105991159912

[dada1231]

keep working dude

[Axil]

Thanks :)

[Axil]

Tried to add a bit of color to my work, is it any better ?

59916

[MN Nice]

Just keep trying on your bars and spacing. simple fills are fine but just don't get too hung on colors right now. Use a lined notebook to help with your lining.

[Mildstyles]

What has happened to this thread. Goddamn.

[Mildstyles]

Already know this one sucks, but maybe you could get the idea i was going for, i only like the A really.
59917

I realize this is the same piece as before, but i forgot i wanted to do the A and E in diferent colors so i redid it. you could crit it
59918

[cred1384]

@Naked finish that one up im kinda digging it.

Tried pushing the envelope a bit, gonna do much simpler for the next few.
http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s424/cred1384/preview_image_1_91380482x.jpg

[Shit Outta Luck]

Your letters are lacking Cred, never forget about your letters. But those colors are beautiful and it's clean, props to that. That C the top extension is wack the bend is eh, you shoulda straightened left leg of the R and the right leg of the R is ew. Top/middle of the E doesn't work in your favor and you should've probably straightened the left bar of the D, and fixed the top right and bottom middle parts of the D. But it's good you're trying new things. I still wait to see a really dope simple from you though.

[Mildstyles]

Quick collab with the money maker!
59927

[Shit Outta Luck]

For some reason I really like how yours goes over his. That's a fucking dope thing I'm gonna do that one day.

[Axil]

@Mild Every time you do something i think its good
@Cred TO SICK

tried to add a little bit more to my letters + i know my X is bad BTW I'm thinking of changing my name because Its kinda a hard name to do good stuff with my name for me X + I are hard to do anything creative to.

59929

[Shit Outta Luck]

Haha nobody in here should take compliments from anyone short of tasty, dank, occasionally kwu, ribcage, or naked. Listen to them. And cred that's better but stop with you're pretty colors so much. Sketch/outline and repeat. Every once in a while throw in some color. But not every single time. Good colors though.

[Axil]

lol outta do you think i should change my name cus for me its hard to do creative stuff with it? AXIL

[cred1384]

@Axil every letter will at some point frustrate the hell out of you, so changing your name wouldn't change much. Just practice practice practice repeat etc.

[Axil]

Thanks Cred You help me the most on here :P

[gemer]

@ cred im seein prgoression from u good job dude

@Peon Its better than what i can do nice
@Gase oh ok

Going to put this to wall i know its not that good but i need to do something
60017

[Peon209]

@Axil
If you're going to put something that simple on a wall, make it a throwie.
No offense, but that doesn't look good on a wall and you're just going to be called a toy.
If you can get a good throwie down you'd be a lot better off.

[KehmONE]

Yeah, Axil. That's awful man, work on your handstyle, your throwie and start with some simple straight letters.

[Axil]

i ended up doing a lot of tag in town and then did a random throwie and some one was behide the fence recording me but its good i had a Balaclava and a hood

[sadgeh]

dont you look for peeps on the block who could be snitches.

[s33on3]

60038

[Axil]

i live in a nerdy kinda area they wont do anything because they are all scared if u hit them or something from all the shit on the news and they get scared so its not that hard to paint anywhere u like and it was a adult anyway no way she can see my face anyway so its good :)

[Mildstyles]

Peon and kehm are idiots axil don't listen to them. Keep doing simples, but ya know you don't have to post all your simples here hahaha. Keep with the simple letters and you'll get better quicker.

[H1P30N3R]

lmao naked I second what you said

[Axil]

lol Mild :D

[dankbudz]

lil sketch

[Mildstyles]

lol outta do you think i should change my name cus for me its hard to do creative stuff with it? AXIL

yes. But it's a presonal preference because i hate all those letters except the A. XIL is a weird combo

Dank that O is sick/ finish it up, lookin good.

[cred1384]

Good shit Dank.

2 different but similar simples.

[Mildstyles]

1st C without the extension, first R without the extension at the bottom, and 2nd D is a little better i think. P.S.- you need to work on handstyles. keep it simple for right meow

[zoid]

60058
60059
what do you think?

[TastyMcNasty]

i think, no

[cred1384]

@Zoid too hard to tell what's going on.

the C looks off on this one
http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s424/cred1384/preview_image_1_50449402x-1.jpg

[zoid]

Not everything "graffiti" has to be simple. Ive done plentty of simple "graff" just gets boring i like to switch it up with all sorts of styles i like to experiment C:

[dankbudz]

zoid- please leave this forum.
cred- keep em comin. that one would look nicer without that extension on the R

[Shit Outta Luck]

That's not the point zoid, you do simples for mad long and forever to really understand the letters. And you don't. I'm not saying don't experiment but I'm saying you can't build a bridge without supports. And Cred that's looking MUCH better, but the 3D on the top left of the C is off or at least it looks that way.

[zoid]

And im saying why cant graffiti be abstract you cant judge ones art. you guys are judging people way to much on simplicity..

[Mildstyles]

And im saying why cant graffiti be abstract you cant judge ones art. you guys are judging people way to much on simplicity..

No. Because whether you realize it or not, there is such thing as bad graffiti and good graffiti. It can be abstarct, but pretty much everyone here can tell you havent been writing long.

[Shit Outta Luck]

It's true. No matter how abstract graffiti gets, when it's good you can see the letters, and if you're good you can understand why they work. I fuck with abstract stuff a lot, but usually only post simples. Tomorrow I'll put up some of my other shit.
This first one's kinda old, but the stickers are new. And no this isn't my abstract shit.

The thing is i have ben I get up and im not a sloppy writer i got my hand control I got my style who are you to JUDGE thats what im sayin

[Mildstyles]

I would love to see something painted by you
and we're judging because im pretty sure right under your first little post it says "what do you think?"
Nice try.

[zoid]

Ya your right ;p i think I just got carried away cuz of danks commet sent me off. ya know ;p

[dankbudz]

just shut up and leave already.

[MASTAH_RIBCAGE]

Im talkin about how u like dicks in and around your mouth area. edit your post^^^ with a smiley with sunglasses if im correct

[TastyMcNasty]

zoid, i would understand the whole "abstract" thing, if you could properly execute it. the thing is, you can't. so stop your bitching and take our advice, or gtfo my internets.

and MN, that throw is dope, this simple is that bad either. keep it up.

[Peon209]

[cred1384]

@Tasty kinda digging that, i like the consistency.

any thoughts?

[Zest3]

Looking good Cred, and yeah Illegal go simpler I don't even know what that says.

[Mildstyles]

That's nice cred, but the R looks wack. I say just extend the loop part. And the way the top bar if the E looks stupid pointed downwards haha. Just keep it straight. D is good and the c is alright but in a way it looks like a weird t, but that ones nice.

[DEMPO]

cred looks clean tho I really would stay wit that last one
seld I understand why you say the S E are only good but it got hella potential
sol those freestyles are ok but the pink n' green one was even more sweet

@Killroy does it say Ctower? but the style looks nice just make the circle in the o a bit bigger to match the other letters so i does not look at fat :P
@Peter LOL :D

Iv Changed my name to Feud

[s33on3]

axil bro come up with a name that has a meaning to you and also figure out a set of letters that doesnt only flow together but also you can execute in a solid fashion. heres what you do first sit down with a pad and paper and just tag out different letters and words do not make bubbles or solids just stick to tags then after you find those letters get an old phone book and a marker and just fill it up with tags and throwies again keep it simple the crazyness will come eventually and the style will work into it too you just have to practice and dont force your letters dont half ass it either

[killroywashere]

its youer

The Y is badass ugly the leg of it that is split dont do that

Not bad Mild. Good to see you breaking out of your shell for letters.

Omiz, simplify your letters and don't connect them.

[Mildstyles]

I got bored...Mues the U looks like a V and the bottom of your S is a little retarded haha, other than that not bad but with your outline try to get it all to line up...some parts are weird.
Thanks though

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7111/6865463110_95ff96b17a.jpg

thanks man...had to change my name due to legal troubles so im juss startin simple w the JAE...what do u mean by putting it on one side as opposed to how i did it ? im juss wondering cuz i was haven a little trouble w actually makin it pop

[cred1384]

@Naked i dig how you change it up each time. the top of the D looks a little funky to me, good shit though.
@Kehm make sure those bar sizes match up, the top right piece of the S and the bottom of the S is off.
@Mike i'm digging all that shit, looks like it was printed rather than drawn. i wanna see more.

messing around with simples

[RaWs3kz]

crits please on the new tag... JAE.... JAE 13 if im not in MS areas ..60402

[REAL_LYFE_MIKE]

jae i think you need some juicier markers. it would make it look so much nicer. work on making the J and E more simular in shape, and this could be dope. oh use the pionts on the bottom of the A for all your points

[RaWs3kz]

word...thats what i was thinkin... and yeh thats crayon lmao..i dunno y i just got the urge to start coloring w crayons

[cred1384]

Redid the last one a bit cleaner / revamped

http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s424/cred1384/preview_image_1_44353942x.jpg

[RaWs3kz]

@cred- i think u got the simples down pat man .... maybe its time to try something w a lil more style...a lil more complicated...im not hatin at all... would just love to see sometin new from u

[Mildstyles]

Meow^
not bad credski, but the ends of the bars on the E look a little retarded.And at the top of the E, you should have slimmed it down so that way it didnt look like the R is covering it so much. Try adding some 3d to the right of the looped part of the R is what i mean.
This is a pretty fun idea to play with, though i could use some crits. But i already know the E is too far from the K
60403

[cred1384]

Yeah this was my last clean simple, i just wanted to get it to where i was digging it haha. Tried to throw a little style into this last one, just don't want to take it too far and fuck up

[killroywashere]

@Rawks - i mean by just having one direction like all the way to the left
you do it with a diagonal at most points
all the way to the left or right or up or down might be easier for you right now

[REAL_LYFE_MIKE]

naked i like that one maybe redo with a complete fill would look good.

[cred1384]

Tried changing it up a bit with the proportions, and playing with line thickness.

@Kehm make sure those bar sizes match up, the top right piece of the S and the bottom of the S is off.



Ahh, shit... I didn't even notice that.

[dankbudz]

Cred work on your hand style maan

[omiz]

[dankbudz]

haahaaha

[elesdee]

just sayin it aint straight

[SkateJunt]

Cred- you are getting a lot better, really fast, that simp looks freshh, i remember when i was progressing quickly for a bit, havent been sketching enough lately, need to get back into that
Dank- looking nice as always, i like that o for some reason a lot, but the middle bars of the m look off because they are the only skinny bars in th whole thing

just some random shit i drew today, not really satisfied with any of it but still looking for crits if anyones got any

[Shit Outta Luck]

Tried out something a bit different on the sticker.
And the second thing is usually what I draw, stuff similar to that. Although that S is quite quite shitty.

@Wil The bottom bar of your L isn't proportional, and the outline is wack and making it look bad, overall not too shabby though, keep it up.

trying to improve my hand stylee, any crits on this one?

[sadgeh]

CRED - good but dont do that stuff with the connections, but seeing tru that its a good simp
RARK/KAKK - Decent but make your bars for now more concistent and on the second that bulb thing on the left leave that

[ZeektheSneek]

608206082160822
Bump from last page. Crits still appreciated!
@bio 99 your lettering seems inconsistent in size. Try and even up each letter, and make the bars closer in size. Also, it's hard to tell if you're writing a B, an R or a K. Try and differentiate them so there is a clear difference.

[SkateJunt]

couple things from today

@Rasn Lose the extensions on the second one and make sure your bar proportions are consistent.
@Dank I like how each sketch you do has just a bit more swag than the last. Always inspiring mah negro.

Reworked the last one with one simple and one trying new stuff

[dankbudz]

that bottom one is heading in the wrong direction, just don't go with that. go with the top one and straighten the vertical bar on the R, like the D. and work on your handsytles man! it doesn't take much. just fill a 100 page comp book and it'll improve

[MN Nice]

Dank, I like how your L and D extension fill in that negative space. But that K and M are maaaad ugly. Those bends are weak man.

[Shit Outta Luck]

outline.
the Naked is sluffinn

The extension on your Seldom's D at the top isn't up to par with the rest. And the bottom right of the M is just not working. It goes against the rest of the word.

just fuckin' around with stuff.... I like this A better than the last one, but the rest of the last one better than this one. (I know you guys hate the pointy bottom stuff, but IDC)

the M and last E are pretty awkward, any other crits though?

[cred1384]

@Peter I like the top but not sure about the pointy haha like you said. just looks strange.
@emace pretty nice, idk about the lines on the letters though.

New stuff

[REAL_LYFE_MIKE]

@PETER i think you need to space it better and clean it up a lil bit @emace get rid of that thing on the G and put more umph on your E
@CRED work that handy with some steez and connect it all the way through itd be dope

[Shit Outta Luck]

Looking better Cred, nice. Your R covers the E to much, and fix the R in the handstyle too!
Like dank said, fill a 100-page composition book with just handstyles. As a matter of fact I should do that too.

EDIT: Dank I think I really like that sketch. I can't really tell...so ink it in! And LYFE...that monkey oh my god I love it.

A few more sketches, trying to stick with the basics and get clean letters. Crits?

Dempo: I'd outline that shit darker, your bleed through from the other side is distracting to say the least.
Emune: I like the style, definitely need to clean up proportions though. Your second E is tiny, and maybe even out bar sizes.6110061101

[smokeitup]

zeek, you suck at graffiti. quit now. its not the hobby for you.

and that purple one is the worst.

[uknowigetup]

Damn, calm the fucking beef. He is doing what he should be doing: "trying to stick with the basics and get clean letters." That being said, work on the first one and keep working with the second one. Tweek it, and it can be a pretty nice basic throwie. If you want to draw that cleaner, start off with the bottom wavey line, and draw out about four of those, try to get them all the same shape and length, then draw in your letters. IF that makes any sense... It's what I used to do when experimenting with those letters. Looks good though, keep it up and don't let fags like this^^ get you down.

meh.

@Romero i like it, maybe try it with thicker bars too?

@Mild i hear ya but i figure why not try every once in awhile. I gave it one more go but i'ma tone it down next time.
@Mike and Mild thanks for the crits, much appreciation as alwayss.

the more i look at this damn E the weirder it looks to me...

[Shit Outta Luck]

Nah cred i say dumb it down a bit. I think you jumped the gun and went for a lot of things to happen at once.
I concur. I do that shit a lot with pen freestyles. It's good to do every once in a while, because even if you do it shitty, you get an idea in your head for a letter or letters. In 5 years that shit could come back and inspire you to do something dope as hell. I mean personally Cred, I never ever would've thought to bend/kink a C like that, it's just not how I think.

But more simple my friend, you'll progress in time.

Lyfer we always get on at the same time... but the top of your A is wack, to pointy looks weird and shit. B feels a little to short, and the S is good but it resembles a 5 too much imo. That character is SO nice though...what was his name again :/

[ZeektheSneek]

zeek, you suck at graffiti. quit now. its not the hobby for you.

and that purple one is the worst.
Oi, sorry if I've offended you somehow looking for critiques. That was very constructive. Thank you DKODE, keep working that dirty throwie you got goin' on your flickr.

Cheers to everyone who had crits, I'll keep working on it. I'll post some handstyles later this week

[RaWs3kz]

crits? 61126

much better than the last. i see you took my advice bout the points. now try and et your letter thickness the same all the way through. nice improvement tho JAE
