Well, I did a mass amount of simples over the last few days and slowly gave my letters some sharper structure. If this doesn't pass for semi-decent I guess I'm going back to the basics.

Also, is there a host that I can use other than Imageshack to get my photos blown up a little more, cuz I'm sick of posting thumbnails.

 

back to the basics

 

here we go.

make that v...not like that. make it a normal V.
Take that tail off the s...its flippin weird
Make them the same width and height
dont worry about coloring for now
and what the hell is that behind the E? looks like a....dino tail??
take off the black dots
dont make your letters wiggle like that unless you can keep them the same width
and draw like Aimo's sig some more.

 

sevn son thats not simple,mark 187 don't add crowns you're not a king yet,and also you need to go simple

ok,i bet you won't understand what simple means,so here you go:

i hope that you understood and read my whole post

edit:im not gonna repost that a second time neither explain,

 

Thanks alot for the constuctive critisism, real helpful. No wonder you have an endless amount of posts, all were most likely five words in length.


Depro-I appreciate all the details and help, I have a serious problem with V's. I went to the local bookstore to look at some "Graffiti World" books, and I realized why. I really couldn't find any inspiration except from people like Volt. The thing behind the E was going to be like a ram skull, and I was gonna have the horns pushing out through the E, but I completely got lost. I really messed up when I made his teeth curl at the bottom. However, it's definatly an improvement from this:

I think I have alot of dedication, and the talent to get pretty decent, I just don't have the rules down pact yet.

Dizzle-Loving that sketch man, fresh as hell. However the "I" is a little to big and obtuse.

 

Ive just got into graff after meeting some other artists so i'm a majour toy. Here's what ive tried to do so far.

I was just hoping for some crits and comments on how i can improve.

 

did i waste my time to explain what simple is?

sevson read my post again,cuz thats still not a simple

edit:my post goes for you also tri1

 

What I just posted is an old sketch, I compared it to the one I posted previously, claiming that I've improved. I know what simples are for God's sake, we were doing 'em for S's & G's years ago in my prelimenary art classes.

SEVN READ THIS ALL OF IT!!!!

yo sevn quit man becuse if tou cant understand and listen to other ppls advice then you shouldnt be in the graffiti world the first rule of respect is you must listen
your not gonna be good if your doing shyt like that
and for future refrence thats not style its shyt throw all those sketchs out of all the shit you created so far and start from the beginning
im not tryna start no beef but south pole went through all that trouble of trying to help your ass out and you totally ignored it
DO SIMPLES until someone tell you otherwise

 

everybody toy that started doing graffiti thinks that he can do simple,
its not that easy as you think to make simples when you just started doing graffitti ..well anyways im off doing my homework,so if you still don't understand please care to read my post again

 

I suggest you open your fuckin' mind before you open your mouth. The last picture I posted is about a month old, I've been trying to improve by doing simples and then making extensions and altering the letter. My previous pic was recent.I suggest you read all of my posts thoroughly before you go making statements like that.

Let me make it a little "Simpler" for the handicaps of this board:

RECENT-

OLD-

I'm not attempting to start any beef either, I'm just trying to get through to you.

 

i know it wasn't recent so try making simples next time

 

I am putting this in my sig

gangprobed by aliens

 

Sevn

your recent shit is definately an improvement ... but still looks like some nasty noodles

beef that shit up [thicker lines bro] ... lose the extensions ... and make some boxes
contrary to toy belief ... boxes ARE your friends

 

sevn_son...shut the fuck up..

arma..how the fuck is that an imrpovement?...uughh..what the fuck..



you obviously aint been doing simples...becuz if you had..that recent sketch definatly wouldnt look like that..unless..your either lieing...or you just carnt graff..stop making beef with people..and except people opinions on you stuff..okay

South Pole know his stuff..simples the lot..me and him aree in the same boat..so listen to the both of use about simples..or dont..i couldnt care..

ima have somehting up in a minit

 

Yall are right, I'm wasteing both mine and your time trying to please a group of negative individuals. Graf ain't gonna get nobody nowhere, except for maybe behind bars. I'll stick to my tat work.

 

I am putting this in my sig

gangprobed by aliens [/b][/quote]
dose that mean you like it o'r is it that crap your putting it in your sig for evryone to have a laff att? XD lol.

 

dont quit graf because of what you hear on an internet forum, damn you are one easy push over. just listen to some of the more experienced heads and move on. taking advice doesnt make you any less of a man, it makes you a smarter man.

 

Tri- Just try and proportion your letters to the same size.

Sven- Fatten your letters up a bit.
