    mmm ok. I can agree there
    zenith- that last WSN needs some help, definitely go simpler and..bubblier. for throws atleast. As for filling throws, just do solid one color fills. pointless to do fancy fills on throwups. Your piecing needs help too. Do keyboard letter straights it'll pay off so much. Or atleast do more keyboard straights and occasionally try doing something different. But work on basics for now
    fade easy- just go to new to graffiti thread, I'm just gonna be repeating the same thing over and over. Learn bars and letter structure there.
    Mr retro- that piece is actually pretty damn dope. That's the only thing ive ever seen from you but it looks like you actually know what your doing haha not bad at all. and that E is fucking sick
    kaser- your connections arent really working. Having those super skinny bars shooting around the piece just made it look awkward. that arrow between the S and E messes up the flow, and makes it look like it's supposed to be an I. The s and e are just awkward, I dont think the S is defined enough, make it look like a more normal S and it'd be alright. and that E doesn't meet well in the middle, the top overpowers the bottom too much and makes it look super awkward. I say just take a step back, colors are nice tho and decently clean.

    The first WSN is the best structured one, keep doing those and eventually you'll get bars down and can start molding your letters into different shapes and angles.

    Random character doodles from work and a MR. LATE concept on top, haha.

    @Retro I fuck with those characters heavy dude, dope work

    @osber Idk if the style just goes over my head or what but whenever I see something you post it just looks like scribbles with sharpie on top. Legibility would be my only crit but maybe you're looking too be that abstract lol just my 2 cents

    random shit

    @grabs, the dasr piece above the throw is pretty neat, like the hookups on the sides, maybe give the R a bit more room. The throw is good, maybe try an upper case A instead of lowercase, looks like an O.
    Aesr piece looks nice, hell all your pieces look nice and clean, I'm a fan of nice pen sketches.

    Another work sketch, any crits

    2nd, 4th and 6th look the best, try playing around with the blockier one, looks nice. The 4th one with the side hookups is pretty dope as well. Only thing I can say is maybe give your Rs some more room, as they seem to be covered up a bit by the S
    Good stuff

    Another work sketch

    Awesome work grabs, I'm really feelin the style of your letters and the overall flow of your pieces, I would work on keeping the width of your bars more consistent through the piece

    Here's a few sketches and works in progress of mine, or been experimenting with a few different styles and I'm looking for general crits

    Grabs I'll take that as a compliment :)
    All my sketches are rough, i can polish these up into something else later. I have appreciation for your consistancy, your form is so solid.
