    The O looks like a C because of the line.

    yeah sky5, that makes sense. i sometimes have an idea of what my letters will be, but most of the time i just do the first letter and then try to do the other letters to match and look ok.

    I can really relate to how sky5 sketches. Keeping a style is probably the main thing toys need to get down. I think once you have a style, or a few styles, you can basically do anything that comes into your mind. ;) Graff is creativity, your style will progress, and you will come up with new things. You cant really see what your style will be in a few months but you will see the progression. The fourth way to sketch that sky5 missed is probably sketching out of pure feeling. This is the real way to do it, and i think how most writers veiw their work, as an expression of feeling or emotion. I would think this is the pinnicle of graff :lol: But you need style. :(

    But for me, I usually cant tell where im going until ive got a few letters down. and then i usually go back a fix it all to suit :D

    looks so much better painted, but i would say get rid of the 'eyes' or holes in your R, make every letter same size, width, and change your U a little, the line going down the middle doesnt really flow with the whole style, hope that helps...

    yeah im not really trying heaps hard on it im just workin on changin it gettin it ready for looking better, so when it is better, ill spend more time on colouring in and stuff. anyways, i changed the U, it was an accident how i put the holes in the R again so ignore them and i kept all my letters the same width, i think, crits?

    shit son
    bring the bottom legs of the r up a bit, think of the letter in terms of a human body: the torso is twice the length of the legs, looks confusing. i'd change the u even more, look at the letter U: it's got that dip in the middle right, try it with a dip in the middle just to see how it looks cause it's still looking awkward. (or you could just change the curvy line into a straight one that goes down to about the middle of the letter)

    work on your handy, make it more readable for one. the simples are nice, and with the piece i'd take out the extension from the a and r unless you wanna make one going from the r to the e as well, cause it looks like ar *backwards 3* 4
