Heads up hud Most markers can layer. Layering is when you use the same marker over a spot you already filled with that color earlier it produces a darker version of that color. More accurately it saturates the paper more thus coming out darker. You can use this technique to shade and add variety to your work. Rather than using a different green which no offense looks pretty bad. Hope this helps. Oh and try thicker outlines they work wonders.
Tempo-Your work is getting better but I can't say Im a fan of all the strange things your putting on your work " the boners that seem to sprout of your letters the weird looking k's sprinkled everywhere and the drips. Your work should be self sufficient "the letters themselves should be awesome alone". And even though you are improving right now you have a tiny cake coated in gobs of crap icing.
Krush- I like it overall does it read EKAF or EKBF? cause if it reads EKAF I'd recommend straightening out the 2nd leg on the A and the extension from the A looks wonky. other than that I like it.
Sick-not digging the leg on the R kinda wished it looked a bit more clean but I get the jist of it.

 

yes, some people on here aint realize the resaon why theyre coloring comes out blotchy and streaky. Im sure there is a coloring tutorial around, in fact ima put one in here that I saw a while back that inspired me to be a better color-er.

Basically you put a first quick layer of color down, then after it dries you color it again with the same color, and repeat until streaks are gone and its all one solid color... this applies when using markers. prsimas, trias, copics, etc.

theres like 7 or 8 parts of her coloring it all skip the first to minutes of this one to skip some boring stuff if u'd like but she explains different helpful and useful techniques throughout the vids. and those trias are hella dope

plus a little somethin im workin on.... not quite what i want yet, but i like the start

meh, bored at work.

 

flat - the F and A are ill. the extension on the T is too much
sara - go simpler, those extensions look pretty ridiculous

 

@flat everything you post up in here is the same... and its not very good. You put the same long ass extension on every letter, and yeah you can make your letters distinct with color but color doesnt make your letters better. Your L looks like a U. the extension on the left bar of theA +the left bar of the A looks like a U and your T looks like a U/G.

@elsedee if your not going to go simple and leave out extensions, at least make your extension transitions smooth...cause that looks pretty wack, hopefully the girl doesnt look at a lot of graffiti, cause if she doesnt you might get your dick wet, but if she does....its bad lol
And im glad you liked the video(s), shes got bars at coloring Lol

for zee battle...didnt get to finish coloring when i entered it so the one in there isnt the same

Go Vote for the TFRRT MUHFUCKAHS!!

 

word i'm detained for the weekend so ill give a simple a shot

i like the spazr, good proportions. personally not feeling the swirls at the bottoms of the s and z

 

i messed up the blue halo'd S for sure. idk about the rest. you guys tell me.

 

tell me what you guys think

 

aser is a really played out name. Ive seen people writing acer, aser, asir, and aesir. The throw is aight. The cracks on JUSTIN look wack imo. The J looks like a U. The left part of the T could be longer. The J and N are the weakest letters imo. Calligraphy-ish is pretty cool.

 

tempo- i actually like that, stick with that style
chronic- i wasnt calllin you out or anything, but you do need to accept that some people will some people will just shit on you and/or your graff... but anyways on to the crits, you need to lose all the extensions and connections or what not (for now) until you get better overall letter structure... hope that helps a bit
hud- clearly you understand bars and 3D (more or less) but that still needs to be simpled up a bit more
flat- even out the bar width a bit more and that ish will be dope...
ribcage- only thing im not feelin about that is the P (just because it doesnt really go with the rest of it) but other than that its pre clean
sylph- go simpler, but on another note those hands are pre dope..
aserdoe- the fill on the forst one is pre dope, i cant really see your letters too clearly, and your background is hurting... the second one is actually dope as hell stick with that style... and i can see that your throws are hurting pre badly...

new ish for the battle... crits?

 

im not feeling the bottom bar of the E or the extension coming off the R. I also dont really like the background. I really like your style though, and your handstyles or dope, specifically the D in Dark.

 

If it's one thing I've learned from the graf scene here in Germany/Europe, it's that you can almost about throw up anything. As long as it's clean, has alot of colour, and decent shines, you can make anything look good.
trying out heart bottoms

 

exchange piece

 

Just toying around with that extention on the A. Any crits?



Got your exchange Ekaf. My bad its been so long. Been out of town.

 

daisy- thats pre clean... nice and simple, keep that up
ian- not bad, all i can say is that you need to even out the bars in the letters a bit and the fill needs a bit of work
clash- even out the size of your letters and their individual bars, letter consistancy i really laking in that flick// that extension coming off the A is not suited for that style of letters, so i think drop it... and your L, S and H need alot off work... hope that helps

 

cmon clash you truly think your ready for extensions that complicated? I understand wanting to not do the same ol shit and add stuff on, but you difinetly aint ready yet. The C still needs work proportionately, and your C is the top half of your S, which is a bad thing cause the C is ugly lol. The left bars of your A and L are the only two that are consistent in width. The only thing that is good about it is its def progressed since the first sketch of that 1 so keep at it
