lungmucus Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 the first one you posted is terrible, stop trying to link your letters up until you're ready to do it. the simples are meh, your U looks like a V just keep at it. yeah i wasnt happy with the first one i just wanted to show where i started from haha and i agree both the u and the g need a lot of work.. i dropped the completely straight letter style the other day and started fuxin with some curved letters so well see how that goes. thanks man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decyferon Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The best advice to everyone is solid simple letters, learn that structure. Lung - stop linking those letters together, also the way you weight the bars of your letters throws off my eye and stops any flow Blondi - stop trying to run before you can walk. Look at writers like Kuma, rocks dope as fuck simples that is what you wanna aim for. Torch, I like the Giraffe but the kick inwards on the end of the R just seems clunky, your simpler ones are better, the silver Torch with the connections needs some more consistency to the letters the C is really small The Whut - lose some of those extensions they dont work Ninja - I actually like that, best thing on this page Baze - good solid simple man, that BA looks nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peaved Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 its tough, i want to have dope ass letters and flow, but i keep reading and hearing, "start with simple straight letters." when do i know its time to move up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tango 24 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 you don't, you just keep going and doing things until what you produce no longer looks like shit. trying to get too fancy too early is the classic toy mistake, doing simples builds your basic understanding of how letters are constructed.

..romero.. Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 the first thing i was taught was bars, meaning building your letters with well, bars. once you get that down its just a matter of fuckin around with it, messin with the flow or how you bend the letters, whether they are sharp angled or curved etc. but everything starts with bars. just keep drawing, thats all you really can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n30nb0n35 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Amen to that romero. I dont know the amount of times i have gone back to the simplest structure because my shit feels too toy. Work simples with bars and slowly add flavour when it feels right. There is no substitute for drawing everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 to draw on what romero said: the reason everyone says start simple and stay simple is so that you learn letter form, not handwriting basics of "this is an R" but understanding balance and weight. You learn this through very basic use of bars, once you've got that you can start a slow manipulation of form. don't worry about anything but the letters and basic 3d for a while. weird gas clouds and bubbles don't distract from shitty form.

tha whut Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 from about a month ago the k isnt portioned to the z i need to cut down on the extensions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheenOne Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 i would try and make the other letters smaller in proportion to that k... that K is kicken but the other letters are too fat/big id say... i also think those fat arrows should be thinned out a bit like the other ones.. cool extensions though.... i need to work on mine......
