Aight, thanks for the input, whut about the s needs improving? Just let me know whut needs to be changed.

well for starters you have to equal out the bars and dont put the ending bar under the p unless you do it with another letter hope that helps a little

Yea, that helps, thanks. :dazed:

make sure your lines are straight. use a ruler if you have to until you get your hand steady enought to break away from it. other than that and wut others have said good start

new colors, the s could use some work, and the lines are sloppy

Those diagonal lines on the 3D have to be drawn at the same angle to work. True perspective would have the angles slightly diverging, but for now, keep the angles constant.

Nice call on the white highlights. Don't forget that the bottom of the holes on the 'e' and the 'p' are also upper edges and should have a highlight line as well.

I actually don't mind the 's' at all. Good job. Beer,

^Thanks, thats good input. Ill work on that. :dazed:

try summ'n new

hey hard to tell if your good or not.. post more non block leters! ya sss needs werk!

Work on your hand style, I realize and can respect that your probably comftrable with your tag looking like that.. but if it came down to me not getting up on a spot because that was there id go right over it... not to mention i dont think it would go over real well here.

Other wise the peice could use a little touch up work but its nice over all ... planning on using brushes or rollers or what?

not quite a full zing zing.....maybe half a zing???

work on the hand steez. but decent for just startin' off.

no matter how hard i try to like that "s"....i just cant seem to do it. but the rest of it is good for a roller. i say you just do a regular block "s" and leave the gap at the bottom between the "s" and "p" alone.

whoever said the thing about using a ruler to get straight lines? ehhh??? it's a sketch man. using a ruler isn't going to make his hand suddenly get steady. Also, what good would straight lines via a ruler help when he's painting. NO NO NO. A straight line on a piece of paper doesn't mean shit with you can't do it with paint.

Find a nice practice spot where not many people paint (if that's possible) and try to paint as much as you can. try freestyling pieces then going home, with the same idea in your head, and try to improve it on paper where it's a little more forgiving.

as far as the letters...at least it's readable.

Right on, thanks for all the feedback.

you're still wasting your time coloring your shit.

it looks just like the others you posted:o

Yo im not shure if im lookin at the same piece as every one else but ta me unless your like 5 years old that shit looks pretty bad ta me unless its gonna be a roller piece like 20 ft. tall or somethingk, your style needs mad werk thats just my 2 cents....................:king:

Like I said before, im just workin on basics at the moment. I am currently workin on a more complex piece, so far I got the outline inked in and imma try to do a better fill on this one. It will probably be up tomorrow.

shut up.

DON'T COLOR THE SHIT.

its a waste of time.

if you're working on basics, then why are you going to do a more complex piece?

just work on the letters guy.

the sizing on the letters is slightly off, and the s is outta proportion with the other lettters

Just curious of how much I have improved since working more on basics. When I started, I just threw down complex pieces (of shit) that didnt really have much structure to them. So i guess this one is just a test ......

well if you practice on just your letters for like a month, you'll probably see some progress.

you won't see it from one day to the other.

You're that guy off the Mr Blunt forums

You're simplifying, thats good, before you were trying to do too much too early, choose better colour schemes

Have you actually been painting yet? Last time I saw you post on Mr Blunt you were worrying about its implications on your education

Yea, thats me from blunts, I hear that place is shit now. No, I havent been out painting yet, I want to get the sketches down well first. I will probably eventually go out, just not on campus, cuz if I get busted, my education is done and imma bumb for the rest of my life, so I just gotta watch out.

under the belt

quick sketch turned into some okay shit

Are you gonna post that shit on every thread?

and why are you bringing up threads from02?
