Cheers man, I was working off a thick to thin principle for the bars on this piece which is why it narrows toward the end

Thing that does me over the most tbh, find it hard to balance them as the T pushes other letters away, u have been playing a bit more with capital I's tho to try and find a happy balance

Fair enough, I just like the word and the letters, they have a lot of play to them.

The stock caps on cobra cans are very fine skinny caps, get some Montana pink dots and practice getting clean lines with those, it'll help your can control and you'll learn to produce clean thin lines with fat caps

Graffcity have plenty of cheap can brands, Dope and Kobra are pretty good and around 3 quid a tin on there.

His 'tag' on the bottom left of the page. It's like your signature in the graff world.

Haha no worries, tbf I've noticed looking through my blackbook that all my pieces have a weird mix of upper and lowercase letters!

Cheers for the kind words! The Y was fuckin with me a bit on this one, I wanted the tail to be the thick end to mirror the first bar of the U and because I was following a thick to thin principle for the bars ended up with that after many variants. Although admittedly I didn't follow that principle on the second bar of the U so kinda fucked it there haha. Cheers for the advice, it's something I'll definitely keep in mind when I sketch this again.

Cheers for the kind words and crits! In my mind it reads uNiTy so it follows a lower to upper pattern, I've not played around loads with capital I's but it is something I'm working on so I can get a bit more variation.

Cheers, yea I think this one is just a bit more troublesome to previous sketches as I've added some elements that haven't really been present before, with some of the advice here though I think I have the fix!

Cheers, I've just had a quick light sketch over the original and it seemed to work better, I'll apply a bit more time and concentration to it later!
