the one point 3d looks nice but the letters dont really match eachother
I like the f tho try to make that mathc the rest since its the best looking one there

Naive
07-19-2008, 12:18 PM
^ I agree on that, the 3d is sweet but it would be much better if the letters matched with their shapes and the boarders looked like they were actually "merged" together with all the letters. uhm.

anyway heres something I did about a month ago during class, i just found it:
and i know, the coloring sucks

Why not? Arrogant statements with out backing make you sound like you think your king.


As for yours 7: Like others said the F doesnt fit with the rest. And some of the white lines dont really make sense. THey should only be around the curves, to signify a change in shape. The one on top of the bottem of the E is especially bothersome.

and yeah Izi take it easy, you're not the only one to give opinions here man, but its ok haha I appreciate your opinion.
Thanks for the rest of comments too.

Gloria the letters arent bad but they look kinda rigid maybe, and the S looks weird. but that eye is sweet haha, nice. btw you're like my person who corrects everyone that confuses me with a guy hahaha thanks

So then it could be a new innovative style.
And I've seen plenty of pieces in that style, just slightly touched up and not rainbow fills.

Seen is one of the best writers everrrr. From NYC, anyway.

philipp keep improving them. That's a lot better.

Oh, thought I'd throw this in here. Did it for a friend, real quick, 5 minutes at the most.

Be harsh, I need good critiques.
Things I did wrong:
-The lettering itself sucks
-Yellow arrows should have been bigger.
-Didn't do anything with the bubbles (i.e. shading, highlights, something interesting)
-stupidly tipped the end of the yellow arrows with red, looks more like I messed up than anything
-letter highlights are completely messed up
-Trying to do too much (it's my first time, I experimented with a lot of stuff [not necessarily a bad thing, just made it look worse])
-My O looks like a q
-Poor camera work
-Sharpies
-My overall noobishness

FightFlyCrow
07-25-2008, 10:27 PM
As with everything else I have ever seen posted here, the 3d is off in lots of spots.
The highlights of the 3d dont fit well(mostly because its totally randomly placed).
Light green highlights look wierd.
All the letters bend in different ways.
The Os are just terrible.
The box extentions need to be gotten rid of, or used on all the letters.
The bubbles need to flow better.
The bubbles and arrows need to work together.
3D on the arrows is especially bad.

Why doe's it bother you to post flicks?

What he's saying is...and to answer your question too, it means quite alot.

If a toy, which i'll heavily assume you are, gives constructive critisism, those words wouldn't have half the impact of that of someone who's been writing for donkeys years, on the persons who work is in quesation, seeing as though toys dont have the eye's and knowledge of that of someone who has written for years.

In short:

toys, are par level with who they are talking to, therefore if a toy seems to know everything and is talking to someone like they do...wont be taken as seriously.

Whereas a legend giving a soeone advise, the person who's work is in question would take more notice of a legend, rather than someone who thinks they know everything about graff, but haven't posted or shown anyone what there actually capable of.



That came out weird, but i worded it my best.

Having an eye for writting, and writting arent totally related. Do any of you disagree with any of the points I made?

I cannot post anything of mine. I dont own a camera or scanner, but that doesnt effect my ability to see what is wrong with a throw. A great writting isnt automatically a great critique, just as a great critique isnt automatically a great writter.

One of the main rules of graff, is share your name with people who you trust and not people you dont. (My buddy from my group told me that, and only my close buddies and group friends know my name) :) Kind of obvious but keep that in mind.


Oh yeah 7evenup loose the g on the unfinished piece. Either that or make the arm of it look better. (IMO)

Search up some graff sites get to know how to write it and what it looks like. I sugjest starting off simple, now when thats done go search some more. Then get paper or a sketch book and write away, practice hand styles (signatures or whatever you want to call it) and simple block letters. And then when your good spray your best drawings :)!

This is how I came up with my name, Write out all your favourite letters and come up with a word. I came up with Skin because some of my favourite letters are in that.

So you're saying it's wack with the characters? Graff has, and always will be about an individual's style, meaning, you can have your opinions of what I do, but it wont change what I do. :)

Nah thats not it,
The first character was epic but the other characters were just... well they didnt seem to fit, and i realze that there is individual style, but i think if your characters fit better with the letters it would look a lot better, like the first one. I mean, im really not the person to listen to seeing as i am an uber toy and suck, but im just going with my "artist instinct" and seeing what looks best.

7evenup....you should try some new 3d that kind is getting old....don't bring it to a point ALL the time...and try different angles....maybe a drop shadow?

Also you need to work on your tags.....(the <- Deaf -> '08 thing)....it has bad flow, and it looks like you are trying to hard.

This one I did for my boy Zach @ work last year

This one was for this girl Nicole I used to work with back in the day (2000)

This one was inspired by one of my ex-girlfriend's kids (back in 2000)

2nd piece cool, to crowded though and you cant really tell whats going on, the last piece looks cool aswell also the baby doesnt look like a baby to the full extent though. Also you piece a while back you asked why I didnt think the last one wasnt graff. Well I think this because it lacks of letters, and it feels like it just some arrows colored in with a character in the middle, im just not feeling it :(.

Work on colors/fills and hand styles. Handstyles are almost never meant to be drawn in blocks. They look best with swift curves and handwritten styles but in a graffiti style of way. Sort of like a signature when your done drawing a masterpiece. You sign it to show its your :). And Your bars are really messed. This drawing needs alot of work ;).

Please change your style of handstyles, because it just looks like square letters with some X's every now and then. And the colors dont fit. And the character letter didnt work in this situation.

Yeah you are, or I think so, even if I dont know **** about graffiti. You're just improving slower than you'd like to I guess so you dont even notice, but if you compare now to when you started I think theres an improvement. I dunno, try doing more sketches with pencil, you know just random stuff and letters or try different styles, give it more smoothness if you know what I mean. Sorry, as I said I dont know **** about graffiti so I dont really explain myelf well haha

Wings, good to see a writer on here with style! I guess post on here have picked up graffiti through skateboarding, and just writing their name in bubble letters and stuff. I've been writing for a while so when I have enough posts I'll put some stuff up!

Also, for the people wanting to know how to develop a 'style'.
Look at the stuff around you, see what you're attracted to. Start off with straight block letters, even and in line, and progress from there :)

Saw that on BombingScience.
Like they said, don't tag schools. Even if it's not yours. I know it's not. But they'll just send the photo to the cops and look out for you.
Don't tag schools, houses, churches, etc.. It's pretty much a respect thing.

But keep at it. When you paint, paint simpler pieces, to work on your can control. Use bars to form your letters, so they're all even.
Just trying to help, I've been in this **** for a few years now..

Bro feel free to copy the basic structure, when you're a toy it's okay to bite bits here and there just while you're learning, because over time you'll progress the letters, etc..
That's very simple anyway, and I have a lot more letter styles then that, hehe. But go ahead if it helps!

Umm I dont remember where this is from but I heard this before (or read).

Not necessarily biting, but looking at other pieces you see, or tags and thinking "Oh that's a cool style of S!"
And changing your letters a bit from what you've seen. Don't get too ahead of yourself wings, just because people give you props for being 'alright' after 2 months. I know people who burn me after that time and destroy more **** then people do in a year.
If you think I'm a dickhead I don't care. But this game is about learning and progression. I was told I was whack as **** and **** for a long time. It helps you get better.

Throw ups arent usually made to look like that. :/ Work on them (Look at other GOOD ones and learn off of it).

Also work alot on your handstyles, handstyles MOST the time are meant to be readable, but not all the time. Work on alphabets. The next 2 have bad letter structure and the colors look bad, dont color yet :)! Im still not coloring (even though I might start this week). But good to see your still writing ;)!

Throwups don't have to look like anything wings..
This is a throwup;
http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn283/roten187/Picture-2-9.jpg
People have different styles of throwups, essentially just a quick thing you can chuck on a wall, that makes more of a mark then a tag. That iske was probably done in the same time people like cope2 would do their throwies.

Anyway, my personal photo album, just some old pieces in it..

Throwups are something you can do in a couple of minutes. I didnt mean what I said to above to mean anything bad, but the letter form itself is bad.
http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e357/LockDown2/CCF01102008_00000.jpg

Ps Work on your can control on that hand.
Also dude, I remember a long while back when I went to pg for the first time trying to get into graff that I seen them tags! I never knew you were the one who wrote Roten/Rotn before. They look good, whats the most recent **** you've painted.

Infoe
10-01-2008, 06:43 PM
Throwups should take seconds, not minutes, haha. Here if you wanna paint a train you only get about 5 minutes to do a full piece.
That piece is good, but like you asked on BS, how it should flow. Make the letters even, don't have it curve around, and just make the S like your other letters, they all move to the right in a curve, the S has a point and kicks back, so just make it 'move' like the others. Then it would be sweet.
I haven't painted anything in a bit, but I will be soon, I've lost my recent stuff, haha..
And, can control? What's wrong with the control?

Dont change your name unless you have to. If someone else writes it to in another state doesnt mean you cant right it. If your both toy then dont change unless you have to. But if he's burner then change your name instantly. I took me 2 trys before I got a name Im probably going to stick with.


Ps when you spray with caps on it doesnt change the fact it comes on in a circle always, it just gets smaller. Besides the universal cap.

Infoe
10-02-2008, 06:17 PM
Exactly, that's why you need cut backs for the sharp lines.
As for names, someone is bound to write the same thing as you somewhere, and they're bound to burn the hell out of you, but if it's not directly close to you, don't worry. Google the name, ie. "SKIN graffiti" and see what comes up.

Wings they're just common extensions. Sick is a common word but so is skin. If you never stick to one style you won't progress. It's all about working on one thing and slowly progressing it before you try doing lots of different styles.
Even I paint the simplest stuff after years..
