sorry bout the wack fill attempt, all i got is reeeal fine tips

an a apology on the links, can't figure out why my pics wont show up...

 

Ay Tofe I like how you blended those warm colors in the 3D it looks nice especially on the N. I like the caligraphy ecept for that last R fallin off, and I hate that O. A normal one would have been way stronger. Other shit needs tweaking though.

 

tofe, i like the 3d on it. shade the eye better try to make it 3 dimensional not a flat circle.

 

it was my first time blending colors like that for 3d..going to start doing that effect more often,and yea i agree a normal "o" would have worked a whole lot better

 

Check out this video.

only use objects for letters when you can shade them correctly and they look good of course haha

 

Thanks man

 

welll i do like the piece there tofe probably the best i've seen from you by far , except the eyee or whatever that is , but the fill on the 3d looks real familiar, i just posted this piece like a day or two ago..........idk it is a generic color scheme and a general idea for 3d fill , so whatever no biggie man , just had to throw it out there

 

yea not even gonna lie i got the idea from u dog

 

Hey, first two tries from simps to pulling and getting my own style

what you guys think

 

A LOT better than what you were postin' before mang.
Now you understand what these guys are sayin' 'bout stayin' way simple?
It's not that your shit wasn't simple, it was that it lacked structure.

Even though in graff you fuck wit' letters and make 'em look crazy,
they still gotta have structure, otherwise they just look like some bunk ass illegible shit.
It's also the reason why a crazy ass piece that most people can't read
can be read by those who know how graff works.

Your next step would be to spend an absurd amount of time practicing that shit.
Develop your own style. Pull the letters whichever way feels natural to you.
You can refer to other people's letters and pieces,
just make sure you maintain the letter structure.

Once you master that you can move on to crazier shit.

 

Thanks man, I can tell what you guys ment, I was doing too much things to the words so it was distracting it from the point of the wrod. And Yeah I'm gunna be spending at least a month or two on just getting my own style down, I really think it's gunna come out pretty good, only problem is that O's and P's are pretty awkward to me to right, I'm gunna see what SNT looks like tomorrow

 

tried skinnier letters

 

Syfer- I like your skinnier shit a little bit better, keept it up, nice form.

 

hey, heres a quick bomb i drew (it still needs a lot of work! ). it took me 5 mins. I'm dedicating this to my cousin who died back in 06 ( te-jay ). anything I can do to improve this? thanks

critzz???

 

It looks good, but I don't like the dots. Also, the "O" is just kind of annoying. The crack, the size, the line coming from the top. Also, the 3D is a bit inconsistent. Other then that, it's pretty great.
