The Leader Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 You're trying to make it look too graffiti. Go back a page and read everything I said. And look at what flayed god x said too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flayed God X Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Here is a new guide I whipped together, it is all done with computer fonts. Using graph/lined paper helps a lot in developing letter structure and 3ds. Please note how the 3d all shares the same angle, before you try any distorted perspectives you need to get your basic angles down first.

CACashRefund Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Not good scribbler, not good at all. You have this idea that you can make a apiece but just getting a shitload of arrows and hoping they will come out like letters. Its not going to work. You need to have letters, without letters youll just a mess, which is what you have there. Concentrate on your letters not the effects. Overdoing of effects/do dads/cuts whatever you want to call em kills the piece. Simplify your shit, get a good letter structure going on, letters are the heart and soul of a piece. I took the liberty of highlighting all the lines you have in that first piece there and i cant see any letters, there something wrong there. You can see that there is no clearly defined letters there. Take a look at this sever: Everything looks crazy and shit, arrows everywhere. Right? Wrong. Everything in that piece has a purpose. And all of the arrows and shit, are secondary to the letters. They assist them. Here i highlighted the letters: See how everything is structured around the letters, not the other way around? Thats what you want to achieve. You dont want to have arrows or bars that come out of nowhere and lead nowhere. Youll notice all his arrows and shit have a purpose and come out of somewhere. So for now work on a good letter structure. Arrows and the like will come later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scribbler Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Thanks for the help man I think I got what you mean. But I think this red green one is kinda simple, or not? Anyway,then could you maybe help me with my letter structure? I kept it realy simple in this one: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarzAbove Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Thats not really simple! Graff letters do not need arrows, the Circle on the I is maddd huge. I would advise to do letters w/o arrows n keep the bars all the same thickness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wink ONE Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Stop twisting your letters, make them straight up and down- copy this exactly and then redraw it, and redraw it..just when you're sick of it- redraw it again: RISE you need to get an idea of what goes into a letter before you can start contorting them. Also: Don't do any 3d yet, you don't understand that yet, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUELone Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 those letters are simple, but make them strait up and down like wink said.also, your 3d is all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
