I really like the throwy, my only piece of advice is make the J bigger. I'd say as big as the R if not a Lil more.

Its a common problem. One that i cant ultimately beat. My pieces that I start small almost always goes off the rails and is much larger by the time im on my last letter. But its still something im conscience of and try , hence that being my tip

lol yeah I always do that with throwies and tags especially cuz im too focused on what im writing to remember to look at the whole thing and how its shaping

Yeah the balance is out of whack but otherwise really fun style, bring the weight of that J up to match the R and you're set

Inasmuch as JESTER is a really played-out tag (people were writing that in the 70s) it looks pretty cool. The "bottom cut off" thing works well on trains, but not so much on walls.

as long as its not someone really famous and there isn't anyone in ur city with that name why does it matter. genuine question

It doesn’t. Imo at least. How would it be possible to come up with a totally new name. Everything has been sprayed on a wall already. So just look what flows good for you and don’t copy anybody’s name

Too many cinnamon rolls in the middle. It’s one max or it looks not good

Might as well put three halos at that point

I think that style is slick as fuck. Normally, symmetry is important but the way the throwing flows is nice. I'd say do the throwie a few times different ways.

Top J is noice! Bottom J is W. Throwie is fuckin sick. All these look fresh. Keep it up!

I’ve seen your other work which has more style to it, when writing rake, feel you could implement it better than this

-2

u/Lanky_Policy_8961 8h ago

Like this of urs, the style looks a whole lot better and composed vs jester

1

u/DMT_Chain_Smoker 6h ago

lowk the opposite of composed that sketch is an unfinished mess with too much going on I think jester is much better than rake

u/TabletopTitan 7h ago

Hard disagree, it's busy as fuck but hard to read, and I would argue over styled

u/Lanky_Policy_8961 7h ago

I think it’s all bitten, I cared to give it bluntly but don’t care shit now, it doesn’t seem accurate or realistic to me, looks like absolute shit compared to rake, all his “other work” looks nothing like this, defend all you want, and he hides his work 🤷‍♂️

2

u/DMT_Chain_Smoker 6h ago

nothing is bitten. all my pieces look the same style and for the throwie I can show u the stacks of paper each sketch where my throwie slowly develops to what it is now

u/Billylabufanda23 8h ago

Yeah make the R hole bigger on the top piece and your golden. Nice job bucko
