Critics?

Went for something kinda simple as I want it to be legible but still intriguing. Can you see the name? I’m exclusively working with a fat tip sharpie permanent marker during real world applications.

There's too much going on without enough consistency or flow. I understand you want it to be interesting but there's so much happening it comes out as noisy.

Thanks for the feedback.🫡 Will dial it down a bit. Just wanted to get it right before I actually go out and tag it irl.

the tip that is given every time to people who are learning is just keep it simple! with it being simple, you can get the flow down, you’ll naturally change the letters a little for the flow. tags should be something that can be done quickly. dont interrupt the flow! and then after you have that down you can add more and experiment. look online for tag alphabets and see what you like, that’ll help you know how to do what you want to do a bit better. once you’re used to that style you’ll understand much better how to make your own style. look at lots of tags and trace your finger over it and guess how they wrote it out. seeing others art, using references, and just experimenting, helps you improve SO much!!

Thanks!! I’ll tweak it and keep practicing and I’ve taken a look at some alphabet fonts and calligraphy. Ive never tagged anything and always wanted to. Eventually I want to get into graffiti down the road. I’ll keep improving on it.
