If you don't want to get flamed to hell and back, don't submit a toy piece here. This is a Contest and not a feedback thread.
I'm saying it to help you, there are sections on this forum just for getting feedback on your sketches but this isnt the place for it.

Yeah, pretty colours.

Now lets look at the 3D going in at least 3 directions, the weird squiggle above the T/L, and the random arrows coming out of absolutely nowhere. Really, if you guys are gonna comment on a piece, at least LOOK at the damn thing first.


Senate, it could be good dude, just drop the arrows, and make your 3D actually work. Letter-wise the bars are a little sloppy, but it still looks alright.
RIP MorOne

you were warned.. and what you mean by
SniperMexi wrote:man come on ppl like u mess up this world.
i think rapist's, terrorists, murderers and such take that position, its dumb toys that mess up this thread.. just work on simples.. none of the "ooo its gotta look like my pen threw up" shizzle. that doesnt work.. have a look through spikeys AU.. he didnt listen. and he was showing minimal to no development during his brief stay here. then.. take a look at Dookies, Atmos's, Kringes and some of the other people who can rock a simple.. their development is astounding if you look at what they started at.. (: Have a nice day.

well i havent seen your stuff here. 0_0 and besides ive seen worse pieces on here hardly any ppl enter submissions per month. im just adding in a lil. And what i meant by "people like you mess up this world" is that u dont see terrorist, rapist, etc...... on a normal basis yet those mean ppl can be found anywhere.

the thing is, that on this forum there are 2983982983698762986329863298623 threads for crits and amateur stuff. The battle thread is a major league event. I wouldn't want to watch a year 8 schoolboy playing in the world cup(maybe a school girl....dirty old man style). But really, why would anyone want to see beginners in a showcase of talent? It's not bad to lack experience ias long as you are tryin to gain some. It's bad to place that lack of experience in the wrong circles. Consider for once that the battle thread is actually on the front page of graffiticreator. Do you really believe that having a link to shitty work on the front page of one's site is an attractive thing?


Oh yeah, and contrary to Taok's skewed opinion, I kinda like that Senate piece. There is potential there. Some of you cats need to stop thinking anything with arrows is shit. To deny arrows is to deny all of wildstyle tradition. If done proper (and senate's are ok IMO) they are great things.
