SPLRT - your letters seem to get smaller as it goes across the page. You should put down some parallel lines like this ---------------- SPLRT ---------------- So you can get them all the same length and in a straight line. Obviously just rub the lines out when youre done. Going to put some color into these tommorow.
Skope - really liking the first piece and you're fills are always really good . Cant decide if the 3d is too much on the last letter but what do i know im shit at 3d anyway haha ok thanks for the crits i will work on it! did a quick one before im off its just a rough pencil sketch.
Splrt - That S is whack just redo it and use bars. also your holes in the P and R are horrible, follow your letters curves. Skope - First one is good, second one is okay, I think the huge 3D on the last E is not needed though
ok, tried more to follow the advice, here it is, unjoined, minimal extensions, with bonus tags around the outside
Dude that looks about 10x better than the previous stuff you uploaded. Just keep working and refining that style until you can really nail it. Then youll be able to start progressing toward that more complex lettering.
yee now that i look at it the 3d is pretty fucked, when i look at it all I see is my fucked up A so the 3d mistakes slipped by... good looks
anytime my man. id suggest making a vanishing point and taking all your corners to the point with a straight edge, itll prevent mistakes in the 3d
^you have to bend and use the bars even when you move away from keyboard letters man, you cant just draw keyboard letters and then fuck around with them. keep the widths consistent, the middle of the s and top of the p and r are way thin compared to other parts quick sketch in class
Il delete the crap above, thanks for the advice ian this is the first time ive actually sat down and attempted the lettering i usually stick to characters and things.
@Skope2 both those sketches are def improvements from your previous works. good stuff man, keep going. as for crits, the D in the first sketch looks like a U, mainly cuz you left the top two bars separate, the line between them needs to go so that they merge and become one curved bar. look out for that one. and unlike what the other mans said, personally, I dig the big 3D on the E and would advise you to enlarge the rest of the letters' 3Ds to match that of the E's instead of shortening out the E's out to match the rest of the letters. maybe use a vanishing point at the far right of the piece to slant your 3D's lines a bit to give the whole piece a bit of depth. i reckon it would look MUCH doper than isometric 3D going in one parallel way. keep developing
BLUE - nice colors POINTMAN - looking good. your progression is dope cheese dreams - whats up with color IAN - work on your flow
Youth not bad, the Y is good I think, I still think your H needs work. New stuff, only really get to sketch during class, just doing quickies.... The D looks shitty, I'mma fix the bars on it later, got fucked up when I tried to darken around it.

-Youth dope as always keep up the good work! i need to get back to you on that exchange..maybe when im a little better! i promise -Dosh really like the whole 3d thing going on but i think you said it yourself about the D -ERKL? top one is dope but i think its the proportion thing just making it look right ya know? oh and dope handstyles man from what i can see! Last one for tonight im off to bed its 2 am here hahaha
bump this *****, looks dope, kinda aint diigin the zigzag in the tail of the Y but it probably looks better with it then without it
Splrt - much improvement, but the 3D/shadow is off at points, also a few of your bars are a tad messy still, but it still is a lot better.
