    well with my K i was trying to pull the bar out to make it thicker, i see other people do it but they get "nice job man" and that, can you explain why my bar thickening or thining is bad? :s Like an example,

    bc. i know how to do it better then you do. start with bars doing the same thing, same size, then work on shit like that.

    valid question... basically if u want to make thicker and thinner bars it has to get thicker at a constant angle... like the bottom left of safers S... u can see where he was sketching that bar into the next bar (this is what u should be doin, i do it too) and it gets thicker gradually and it makes it look more convincing, ur K just looks like a wonky triangle pretty much, its all about keeping flow....

    heres one from me with some thick to thin shit goin on...

    im not sayin this piece is perfect by any means lol... but if u notice the bars go from thick to thin at an even and constant angle... so it just looks better, to me at least, dont take my crits as fact if u dont want to, im not an expert

    Looking much better zewl. The e in the top one is messed up on the bottom part where it curves up, but good otherwise.

    Prea- SPace the letters out more, the E is too hidden. and that R kicking out so much messed it up. Just give the E some room and it would be fine

    try to make the corners of your lines so pointy if that makes an sense. In my opinion, you shouldnt even be trying this stuff yet. Get your handie much better than do some throw ups before you start these. Everyone sucks in the beginning, most of my stuff still sucks. Just try to get out of the Mega toy phase before you start piecing. imo

    Hahahahaha. You're getting hella better man, just keep at it. Zook is right in his crits. Also, the W is kinda messy. Just work on the straight down stuff in pencil and go back over it in marker. The small straight looks better than the middle as well.

    You are very much on the right track, keep it up.

    And anyone wanna do an exchange? Zook?
