    if someone posts some shitty looking graff in here they pretty much get ripped apart for it anyway, its just that theres a wave of new ones every week that think theyre intermediate so theres at least a few shit pieces per page...
    but the regulars know whose a step up from toy and whose not, just gotta be more of a dick when u see something that doesnt look good in here... my opinion is that if u can keep ur bars flowing then ur intermediate, if ur shit looks wobbly and uneven ur a toy...

    people like duke alts crust squint zoner bilnek atesk rayz are intermediate, but blast zen kew safer stotr and people on that level just need a little more time... no hate just bein blunt

    What is garbage about it? i want to get the new style down then combined the old style and new style together. Im getting influence from DC writers.

    the structure just seems weak. the bars dont seem very consistant and there's a lot more negative space than there was in your old style. the flow lacks and the extensions seem too forced and random whereas your old style flowed great and the few extensions worked perfectly with the simplicity of the letters. i also dont like how blocky your new style is. idk i just woulda stuck with the original style and developed it more if it was me. dont fix what aint broken.

    I feel like I have potential to be intermediate. I'm just not motivated to ever sketch.

    the ones i take time on i get frustrated and don't finish. its obvious we understand bars, flow, balance, etc. but i agree some time is needed. GOOD CRITS WOULD HELP lol.

    i try to give the most detailed crits i can without being an ass...

    what makes that stotr piece toy is the bars plain and simple, both vertical bars on the Ts are uneven and dont flow well, same with the diagonal bars on the S and R. the chips are in bad places, chips look better coming off the end of a bar. and on a personal note i dont like the popout things on the top of the letters.... the concept of the 8ball isnt bad but when ur making an object especially a round one it has to be on point, the center white part of the 8ball should be a circle like the ball itself but instead its more of a half circle with straight lines on the right side... know what i mean?

    to me intermediate pieces should have cleaner lines and ur bars should flow nice, intermediate should be people that have the basics down pat but just need input on what direction to take their style

    rollers are supposed to be huge and sloppy... i like the zoner, i was gonna ask if u ran outta both colors since theres no dot in the R and the incomplete outline... the ms roller looks good though too
