    Update on the sketch I'm working on during lunch breaks. Fixed the Z, just toying with extensions at this point seeing what Works and doesn't. 20140319_130834.jpg

    PHAZER: Drop the arrows, hombre. You still need to work on letter structure and the wonky extensions aren't helping you.
    Honestly, arrows are soooooooo overused in graff. Shit isn't a requirement for wildstyles or any kind of technical piece. I know practically everything has been done already, but still, I'd like to see some more unique extensions and a little less pieces with arrows sometimes. As for now, I think you'd be better off not fucking with very many extensions and working on other shit like the flow of your bars and the ends as well. Their overall structure isn't terrible but it still needs refining without any bunk extensions distracting from it.

    Right on mayne. Preciate it. They are wonky yes. I usually dont mess with extensions really at all. And I said before this is way out of my comfort zone but it was something I sketched up while drinking and kinda liked the letter cores soni figured I'd mess around with it. Thanks for the feed back tho

    My K's really bother me. But over all I feel better about my work.
    Its hard to resist coloring with the prismas though.

    @Wynk Your Y's are looking good homie, your N's aren't bad as well, but could use work. Your W's seem to need as much work as your K's do, make sure you keep in mind that you need to keep sizing the same throughout the letter unless you're keeping that change in size consistent. Keep working on your letters and keeping your sizing right.

    @Grabs. I agree with you fully. I am going to do a few pages of just W's and K's. I haven't really been happy with any K yet.

    Wynk, ever tried to do a piece with straight bars? Sometimes excessively curvy bars can screw with the flowing I'd like to see how you'd handle it.

    Some quick shit

    <<<grabs…bar width consistency is a little off on the bottom of the O at the top there is a lot going on too. the V and E aren't bad…the R is original but there is something funky with the extension off the lobe…

    >>>>semper…damn..amazing…

    @Syco the O is definitely off, the extension off the lobe should've been skinnier I think.

    @grabs too many random bends. Thicken up your bars and work on getting consistency and cleanliness. You're getting ahead of yourself and it's turning into spaghetti letters which is a big no.

    ace - i think you should go even simpler, try to get bar widths and letter heights the same too

    Rade - I can't really give you crits anymore haha, but you should start coloring your stuff more often. You do a lot of black and white pieces.
    Ace- Just drop all the extensions, and start with Keyboard letters. Also, don't connect your letters, wait till you get better.
    Junglizt - Does that say Smoke? If it does the S and M connection is quite confusing, also, the extension on the K kinda makes it look like at strange R

    Smoke you're getting there but be careful with connections they can make your letters confused as to what they are.

    Ewal thanks man but I don't colour much because black and white is the best way to practice and colouring takes way too long
