    Dear Good Writers on this Site,

    Not to be the defiant toy but nobody wants to hear someone on the internet tell them that they can't draw worth shit....instead of "go simpler" as hard as this may seem, how about just giving tips to improve current styles? Every time i try and take people seriously on here and go simpler i end up over thinking all of my sketches and give myself the yips. My point is, just as we all like to defy the law and vandalize, we all like to defy other people, especially when their advice doesn't actually contain any tips or guidelines.

    Go ahead, call me a fag or a loser or even the dreaded "TOY" for trying to point this out.....all i know is I'm going to put paint on peoples walls no matter what you think and that for me is what this is all about.

    ^obviously this doesnt apply when people are going way out of their league but when i can't get some tips for improvement on a simple simple style, theres a problem

    They are telling you to go simpler for good reason, if you don't like it than ignore it. Think about the benefit of simples this way. If you attempt a piece with extensions, crazy letter forms, and all that jazz, but your basic letter form is not perfected, than obviously adding extensions and all that other stuff isn't going to fix it. You can't polish a turd. By starting simple you can learn the best ways to attain flow and bend your letters. That's like trying to backflip a motorcross bike before you've even learned to shift gears. If you want to ignore people who are good writers advice, than that's your choice nukka. All of my progression (if you can call it that) is from listening to the advice iv gotten from here.

    Also tits.
