    Yo so I did a quick one (it was my second attempt) to show u some basics of what you're missing.

    First of all YOU need to thicken your outlines from now on even just a bit it overall makes things stand out more and u will get props for it.

    You also need to use bars properly, I'm surprised after looking at so much of your stuff I didn't realise how fucked up your bars are. I tried to stay completely with the bars you used but it was a mess (however I understand u freestyled it) because the bars are shit

    Which is where your handstyle comes in, anyway u need to perfect that shit or just get better with it because that's what makes the pieces look decent overall.
    If your handstyle (which makes up your bars) is shit essentially your piece will look shit too.

    This is pretty much why everyone said to do simples/ straights because it's hard to fuck up the bars if u are doing simples, and gives u a chance to play with bar widths.

    Which is my last tip, having consistent bar widths.
    All of your pieces (if u can call them that) have almost never had consistent bars widths which is another essential when you're a toy. Perfecting those will always make shitty bars look decent enough

    Also I don't believe u have been doing this for 10 years u just think u have, I would have said the same thing about 6 years ago which is when I actually started and I've improved a shit tonne after I went back to doing simples/ straights/ keyboard letters)

    I can clearly see u were better back then, however your bars were still shit and your outlines were weak. But the characters almost look decent and that 12oz lettering is the best thing you've ever posted we wanna see more of that shit. When u actually get good at that kind of stuff everything else comes a little more natural I guess, also by any chance have u read the new to graffiti thread, there's some helpful shit in there
