    Fuck it, I wanna exchange too, someone hook me up with a name or anything, I just wanna try writing something OTHER than my tag for a change.

    Chen - Its very abstract, I can tell you have good skill with drawing and shit, but the letters might need a little more defining as some of them are hard to make out.
    Flat - Looks at your T and tell me you don't think it looks like a B, same with your L, those extensions are KILLING your pieces, and we have all been trying to tell you this for a while,, I just don't get it....
    Sour - ha.... You must be trolling.... Earsnot... ha...

    SO WHO WANTS TO EXCHANGE!?

    Chen, I love your style. Very unique. You might need to develop it a lot more before it looks like real graff, but it definately has a style of it's own. Keep writin man.

    aight, im a shit artist, but ive learned a lot of techniques and basically can draw most of the styles that arent super duper complicated. blocky styles, like Flatscanck's , is what im going for, but the problem is i have absloutley no creativity, so my peices always look toy as fuck and really shitty. PLEASE dont bash this, just give me some feedback. tell me what you dislike and hwat to change, but also say one or tow things you think i did well, so that its not too harsh. im a REALLY. REALLY. REALLY. bad artist, it took me months upon months of practice just to get this peice out, and this peice took me over an hour. im proud of it, even though it sucks. would someone do a name exchange with me? just draw my name in a chill, but not super complicated style like Flatscanck has, or another style like that? id really appreciate it, id do your name too, but im sure you dont want the disgrace of what i call my peices to be posted on here,,,, if you want me to ill do yours, too. please help me out, i need a style that i can work towards, and i REALLY want a new style, if you were feling generous, do 3D on my name that you maybe draw for me, because im bad at 3d and need a good base peice to work towards... thanks. comments and crits and stuff are appreciated, but please be nice, and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a name exchange for me.
    anyway, here's the "piece" the colors suck but i was at school and all i had was one sharpie and a bunch of highlighters.

    Go easy on the text Tacit.
    You need to learn good letter spacing and work on that C. Those T's could work if you straigtened them up.

    Yeah aight I hook ya up Noise, might be a while but I'll get them done when I can.

    Tacit - yo nice thing about graffiti is that it is the simplest art in the fact that you draw letters but is always evolving and can always be improved. So it doesn't matter if ya have art skill or not when starting off since everyone should start at the basics. As for crits I would say spread your letters out, use bars (If you don't know what they are or are confused by how to use them just ask) keep the same bar width for now, and work on 3D, it is off terribly, sorry. Remember to make your vanishing point and follow the letters curve/line. Yours Ts and A are actually decent for being new to graff, they are simple, have bars and look much better when you compare them to the C and I.

    I'll hit ya up with an exchange also since I see no reason to not hook ya up with one.

    sr - the throwy with that wack character is decent. the 6th picture is pretty cool,that 's' is fresh

    .flat - lol your 'a' is the best letter there .. worm - looks like u made a big peice and then went over it,do simple keyboard letters for the meantime.

    chen - On your second picture the tag above your "c' is what your peices should look like,the letters look awkward,but you deff have some style no doubt, that first picture is cool eventho its illegible and on the 2nd picture the character is fresh,color it!


    tacit - dude you might get some sence of style from an exchange but you cant just completely bite off of somebody else,i mean you will develope your own style with time ,it will take very long time but you will. Just dont get lost doing excessive coloring because that will take time away from what your really trying to learn,witch are better letters. Do simple clean keyboard letters,watch your bar proportion witch is very important,and dont sketch so big so it wont take up so much time.I remember wanting to do 3d really badly too,but dont worry about that for now,with time you will learn. check out this thread, http://www.bombingscience.com/graffitiforum/showthread.php?2185-New-To-Graffiti-Start-Here! it helped guide me a few years back.

    I like the first one but make sure not too cramp your letters too much, the overlaps are just a bit too overlapped I feel, and what's up with the D in the second piece? and there is T that looks like a P further down.

    worm* you need to go simpler, those letters are lookin all kinda wack

    chen you got a unique style man, keep at it

    tacit you gotta do some keyboard letters, that's where everyone has to start --> TACIT, get goin and dont bother coloring or anything until you got some solid letters

    tofe i love that hand in the first flick, all your stuff is pretty damn solid, simple but steezy, props dude

    ian what's up with that little chip out of the U? I think it would look better if you just connected the whole thing. I think the I's themselves are fine but the connections make them look like L's.

    yo anyone wanna exchange? i know im toy as fuck, but that peice i posted was a new alphabet. i got simps down, scept for C, D, and S. i can do throws pretty good, too. ill hook you up with a new throw or simp of your name if you can gimme a peice of my name? like Flatscank's alphabet, back on page 5368. cool looking, but nice and simple, maybe even a bit simpler than Flatscank's, i dont need it colord or any shit, just drawn up and got 3d on it, because im really bad at 3d and need some guidlines. thanks guys, ill exchange with anyone, illl do a throw or a simp alphabet, you choose. plus itt'l make me feel good that someone would exchange with me, like i dnot suck as bad as i do, lol. i Write Tacit, and if anyone responds to this soon, ill get your throw/simp peice posted on here by the end of tonight, prob within the next hour or two. thanks, also, i got some crits, even though im not great, i hang out with a bunch of pretty good writers, intermediates not pros, and its sitll nice to have some new eyes,

    Chen: your shit is pretty good, but draw bigger, if you draw small like that, it makes it a lot harder to paint and get better with peices, start now so you dont hit a big gap in skill when you start painting a lot, also, the characters and shit, i dont reccommend them, work on your alphabet, and drawing bigger, and get awesome at letters and shit and then worry about characters,
    FlippingChickens: your peices are pretty nice, but liek i said with chen, draw bigger, or youll hit big problems when you start painting., on your second peice, the blue silver and black one, drop the arrows protruding from the letters, they dont look good, and arrows are basically toy as fuck unless your a legend, at least, thats what ive been told.
