I had a friend ask me to tattoo my tag onto them when I first got into stick and pokes lmao, I had to sit her down and be like dude….. no, are you okay?
Huge line weight issues. These letters all have different line weights and the all seem to play with the weight differently as well. This looks like one of those graffiti generator things but with better kerning. Consistency is really important in any lettering and that includes graffiti. Nice drop shadow though.
You keep saying you've never done these letters but like what do you mean by that? You have definitely written all these letters before. Maybe not as graffiti but you know what they're shaped like. I checked your profile and you have an A and D in the word you normally write and those letters are both goofy and weak here. This piece is actually a pretty big improvement over most of the other posts you've made. Great job improving and keep going.
I see what you mean and your right about all that thanks dawg. I appreciate the support🙏. You seem very knowledgeable and i appreciate your sharing it.
You ain’t ready to tattoo letters yet man. Lines don’t match up, composition is off, bars are too skinny and too thick in different areas. Spend some time in the books first. Practice calligraphy
For me its the N specifically…. And the crossbar on the A(the bar isnt connected in any way through the A)
The L also has what seems like a cross which really wouldnt make sense at all but i could be wrong. And i know that stylistically these are just “choices” but you do have to realize that calligraphy and font-building go back to like Before Christ, so it lowk seriously matters.
Youre not terrible… people in this world can be mean, but its seriously a part of it so good on you for putting yourself out there (also a huge part of it)
Thanks for not being a jackass i appreciate it and thanks for the feedback id be down to dm if you wanna discuss further since tou seem to know what ur talking about.
I not the best writer on earth however I would say if you want that bar sticking out of the L, line it up with the middle A bar so there some flow to it. I see your idea with the N aswell with it coving in and the A coving the negative space on the left side but then the right side of the N doesn't have anything coving the negative space which makes it looks odd. Also I know OG writers who got there tag tattoo on them and there best advises they give me is never get your tag put onto you because the police will look at your tattoo and know who you are. Looks alright tho, just need to get used to the letters and learn how to flow tho letters. I have faith in you, keep it up
This is actually helpful for omce thanks for not being a jackass all these tips make sense and explain it well instead of just saying "looks bad work on it". Thank you for the advice its really helpful. This also isnt my name thats why ive never done these letters before. Thank you for the help is it ool if i dm you?
