    Default First Board Art Finished

    Nothing insanely cool, just a logo/design I came up with during school. I was going to spray paint and do a bunch of other stuff but I decided to keep it simple and just sharpie and then I'll gloss coat to protect.

    I plan on getting a new board in December, rather Christmas or my Birthday so this is just a rough mess, something to fool around on.

    Here a few:







    C&C if you'd like.

    no offense. but from my art background, its very simple design with straight line which only looks good when making an intricate design and keeping the lines perfectly straight... and the composition isnt balanced as far a focal point, but some color may fix that.... but i doubt it.--- but keep trying

    I mean this with all due respect, and I am saying all due respect but.......that is the worst board art i have ever seen. At least use a straight edge and make the lines straight. Lucky for you art on the bottom comes off in like 5 minutes of skimming.

    Well I think it's cool, it would look better if the lines were drawn more freehand looking or very straight. In between doesn't look as good I think.

    I liked the concept and don't have too much homework tonight so I cleaned it up for you. Maybe try something like this on your new board in December. You could probably print it and cut it out and use it as a stencil. It will take some time to cut out but I think the end result will be worth it.
