It's not a handstyle outline Alive, I just thinned the letters to better add 3d (which I haven't added yet). I'm hoping that will fill some of the dead space. But thanks fer the crit.
throwie kiddies [Broken External Image]:http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/957/img0233sa1.th.jpg feeeeeed me with the back please
really? im impressed then, but its interesting, b/c it looks just like one of your handstyles (that r excellent by the way). you shouldnt thin letters for the 3d, the letters are the focus, 3d is to help the letters pop. stay around, my pics are uploading! thanks, hope i helped a little, peace.
here we go! my new blackbook the first page, fuckin with paint, then my throw next page, pen freestyle markered over third page, pen freestyle markerd over next up, handstyle with a marker i made fifth page, more pen freestyles, some markerd over more pen fuckarounds some markerd over and next, the first thing in the book i spent time on, and my VERY FIRST connections! finally, basically the same piece as on the last page, but much bigger, i need to start rocking the whole page. there we go! crits would make you my new best friend, expecially on my only penciled pieces. thanks so much, peace.
I like the first 3 pages, although I think you could soften some of the really sharp points on those simples and the E on the second simple is a little off on consistancy. The throwies' pretty nice too. By the 5th page, you're really struggling with that R. I'd focus on it for a while. Page 7 isn't bad, but page 8 kinda lacks. The R and the A are twisted up. Overall it was a fun book to look at tho.
wow thats such an improvement from the other one like halfway up the page. Good goin'. Oops that was ment for the last page for truth... But good goin cear. I think just work on making them a bit cleaner.
haha thanks bombs but this is my only post on the page? maybe ur talking to some1 else. lol. or up the page in the book? lol cezr - cool thanks for the crits, ill try to round it off, i have noticed that often dont do that enough. do you think you could explain what you mean by "twisted up"? i really liked that A! haha. i did really like that extention, but i wanted to counter the C's extention. im just starting to use extentions like these too. trying to take a step up with them and connections. maybe its too early? let me know thanks, i repect ur advice peace
thnxs C3ZR 4 ur crits, im thinking of changing my name idk yet i cant come up with any good ways to do V's
cezr that outline is too generic looking like sum fonts shit, no beef just my opinion. i hate that "E" how it has those karate slashes on top and bottom thru the monkey tails. besides that its fresh... (i can see what you were doing tho making the letters real skinny to add 3d effects. i bet itll look alot better with those in there.)... the tag on top is perfect as usual. im not really hip to how good you are at doing outlines tho cuz i havent seen too much of them by you. you know the sex of your seed yet?
Most of the kids on here have some predetermined image of what graffiti looks like in their brain. Hmmm, well i dont see any arrows so i guess its not toy, and the letters connect so he must be good" , like come on, graffiti's all about style, about finding your own, you shouldnt be trying to live up to some perfect piece, it should legitimately look good to you when you compare it to others. You should be happy with it. My only crits for cezr, cuz hes one of the real cats on here, and actually helps kids out, while still managing to keep his graaf his way, is that the space in the middle of your C is too large, everything else flows, is clean, and id be proud to ride a miniature train with that on it any day, so paint it, anywways, heres a little something that i didnt get crits on and would like some from: [Broken External Image]:http://img465.imageshack.us/img465/7530/saracsp5.jpg for a girl, says Sara C PEace
Alive- By "twisted up" I mean that the right leg of the A kicking inward like that just looks a bit unnatural, but if you really like it, then by all means, use it. As for the extensions, I'd say, they aren't really working yet, but I'd continue to try them. That's the only way you're gonna get them right eventually. Nicca- You don't like the E? I was feelin that.. Oh well. Maybe I'll try a more basic one. My skill level on outlines isn't much higher than what you see here, cuzz I focus more on wheatepasting and when I do freights, they're generally pretty simple like this. I put the 3d on and filled it in, but since I inked the outline before adding the 3d, it's all fucked up. Pluss I decided mid fill to make the Z orange, so it's all splotchy, but you get what I was going for.. [Broken External Image]:http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/3249/im000246oc1.jpg I might have to paint the whole car to fit it on there, but don't worry, I'll teach the kid right. I'll tape over the numbers before I paint it. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Oh snap! Thanks Tricks! I appreciate it. That Sara C looks fresh as always. Do you work with paint? (I'll bump your pic to the next page, since I went over it. )
i actually gave a criticizm for that sara peice but eh... fuck it. it wasnt very detailed anyways... damn, that shit looks 100 times better with the outline etc... nice shit. but yeah im a "E" feind so i, personally, dont like many cats "E's" you dig? just bein me... keep it goin moderator.
oooo i like the fill. can i suggest making your 3d longer next time? ive only ever seen that 3d from you. try a new direction length and fill. u dont have to, but i think itd be interesting. i c what u mean abt the A. what do you think of the connections? i hate the way when i make a piece at first, i love it love it. and then as time goes on i start to realize all the little problems with it and i get pissed off. b/c u can nvr see them at first. u know? i do like your E btw! and you know what? i figured out what bothers me abt ur letters. its that the structure is so perfectly. seriously though. theyre like exactly what graffiti is classically supposed to be. i like that though. classicly. am i making sense? but i still say you should thicken it somehow. tricks i love that. the only prob is that the H is a bit unclear, the bridge is too low. great style. this is a great page. lol. can i say that? peace. ps. haha posted too slow, im a page behind
but you can turn those letters into anything really, if you just swap a few lines abou only the s stood out as an s to me, but it still stood out to me as sarac and i think it looks dope
haha! thats it! it makes sense now. its perfect then. i wouldnt have guessed it was a C, but for some reason i thought, sarah, cuz a friend of mine spells it like that. so i searched for the H u know? peace. ps. i dont think thats true obseen, there all defined, im just an idiot
Bump for Tricks as promised. [Broken External Image]:http://img465.imageshack.us/img465/7530/saracsp5.jpg Alive- I know what you mean about the 3d. I'll try it. The connections on yours seem to be coming along. With work they'll get there.
yo tricks thats ill, im lovin the 3d heres some thing im workin on now ran out of room for the last A but whatever cant add color becous i got no markers got 2 get some soon [Broken External Image]:http://img318.imageshack.us/img318/6514/0909061322vu1.th.jpg crap image shak is only lettin me us a thumbnail
