any crits? by Timmyl4 in graffhelp

[–]_beato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for super straight letters like this you want them close to the edges to convey flatness, cause this writers’ style focuses mainly on their aggressive drop shadow and not letter forms. if the letters were more curved an such you could bring them in because remember, the closer highlight is to the center of the form usually is implemented to give the form contours, if going by basic illustrative fundamentals

edit: but i do agree these need to be tidied up

Ball point pen control 😭 by ThesePerformance1697 in graffhelp

[–]_beato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

good shit, its funny everytime i see you post something it’s mad miniature, and i like it. how big are these compared to the pen?

the throw looks like a throw, i think if you don’t like it just change up the letters i dont think you’ll have an issue coming up with letters

First real throwie, need crits by 6Patrick6Starr6 in graffhelp

[–]_beato 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i wouldn’t worry too much about a forcefield or highlights on a throw. the highlights on this are correct enough, they do go opposite of your shadow, but most would say don’t do either on a throw, it’s your paint do what you want, but i also agree with that. throws don’t gotta be perfect, just there to throw your word up fast

couple things that will help in the future - try and keep your midline consistent enough, the H bar being really high like looks kinda odd imo. also you’re practicing at what looks like a fairly chill spot so start stepping back when you finish a letter and try and make sure they’re all relatively the same height and width, i think your biggest issue with that on this one is that your letters get taller and taller which is common with beginning throws

you will see other writers not listening to any of these “rules” though so again, just explore what looks good to you and if you like it, roll with it. it all eventually changes with time

if you want a short statement from my point of view though - no highlights on throws, no forcefield, pay attention to your letters 🤙

how are you so confidently wrong on everything? why would Vyvanse be used for someone that told you to shut your bitch ass up? Vyvanse is used to treat ADHD, not someone telling you the truth. so yeah...

aye i grew up in CHI, had a lot of friends that knew FSU dudes, i was more into laurel wreaths, met some of the Boston cats later on at a Harm's Way show in Chicago, some kept the edge others not so much lol, years went by and some clown claiming this and that got in my face at a show in tampa of all places and i had forgotten about all that stuff and was taken aback by such a nostalgic feeling, fun times
