This looks like you were going for Optick's style.

 

My vote goes to Edogg on this one.

 

I don't mean any harm but you can't say opticks style. Optick rocks it well but I've seen that style a million times before. Even with the coloring, it's based on an older style that's making a comeback. Optick pulls it off well but it's not his. He even says it. If anything, it's Dondi's style.

You make a good point, but I cant cheer for a comeback of that style...Optick does that style well and I'm sure it doesn't hurt that he grew up around it....He has reason to be doing that style but I dont and neither do these kids.

 

I got a copy of subway art on my shelf but I'm not jockin that shit, all that is to me is a history book of NYC graffiti. And as awesome as that history book may be, it aint my BIBLE and I'm not tryin' to bring back a style from 25 years ago....Those styles are classic and shouldn't be replicated by beginners.

 

just my opinion.....And Freight I ain't hatin' on you, cause it looks like you got skill color wise but I personally think your letters need work.

so yeah I guess its long enough on voting so looks like neber1z wins the bets battle congrats, it nice to see a lot of people that know their roots and know where styles come from...been doin it since 99 so I have respect for all styles and like to flip a few, and like to know where there come from so newbies recognize your predissesor and give them respect I do. I grew up looking at Nace (RIP) that guy was my idol, not to hop on any nuts or anything, he just got me into writing from seeing his freights rolling.
