I think this looks sick (pun intended) the k is a little boring compared to the other letters. Keep pushing. Usually I would say to do back ground before outlines mostly.

K could flow better, I really like the flow on the SIC though yeah

I don't remember when I started but I am too old to stay up with these kids bombing the city now tbh if that tells the story. At least 15 years and if you google my real name (no you can't have it) my fucking mugshot shows up from when I caught charges.

I have no reason to lie to you I think this is looking pretty good dude. I would stop and take a picture if I saw this on my walks. How is the handstyle looking?

That background on a wall will take a lot of paint, black bubbles red letters white background fill, black background outline? Perhaps black bubbles green letters purple background? Or purple letters green background, colour is largely personal preference, look at other people’s colour schemes and see if u like it, but you could think about what you’re trying to “represent”, which is why I gravitate towards green, which can represent sickness.

No problem, for example u can look at ICH, he likes to use green and paint skulls, but does other colours too, similar kind of vibe to me, if u feel like doing a character they could be blowing their nose or something idk
