Genuine has stepped it up, I watch his shit grow month by month on myspace. Back to the point, there are a ton of artist, some good, some shitty, some pricey and cheap. Just look around and ask for referalls.

that looks a lil better than your other work but still not to my taste but to each his own....i was jus sayin ya boy over there was puttin WAY too much on it sayin you got the cleanest work in the BAY....cuz Shemp (Photodoctor Graphics) and Madepro are 100x cleaner......

imo there are only 3-4 REPUTABLE, CONSISTENT and RELIABLE graphics cats that you should fuck with out here if you have the BREAD. most established cats charge around $600 per project. if you don't have that kind of loot then try out a newbie but basically you get what you pay for and remember - GRAPHICS are your 1st IMPRESSION with a potential customer. boo boo grafix = boo boo sales.

Who I've fucked with in the past:

Shemp / PDG - GREAT work, hard to get into his schedule b/c he has a lot of clients like SMC & Thizz who demand his attention. That's my homie though, love his work. Did my 1st mixtape cover.

Brian Bradley - Good, clean work, not too extra'd out but looks really professional. Has done most of the Moe Doe catalogue (Keak, Team), along with my Block Star DVD Magazine covers.

Meezy Art - Very professional design house, little more expensive but basically they do it all. Good turn around time. Did Traxamillion, J. Davinci's new mixtape, new Bay Area Block Stars logo.

Lastly, lmao @ madepro being on shemp's level! shit is str8 fugzi if you ask me homie... and them dudes want $700-800 a cover! hahahahahahaaa man DON'T DO IT, JUST DON'T!

Holla @ me if anyone needs the hookup on these places.

What real covers have you done that were pressed up and the album was sold in stores? You cant be slept on if you have never done a real album cover!

u get what u pay for and i'm sure quinn paid good money for that cover, but not everyone got "quinn" money so they go out and get someone else to do it

these 2 quotes are pretty similiar...good info chinese mike

Graphic artist doesn't = album cover maker. He does a ton of shit like banners and other various graphics. And why are you tryin' to knock dude, didn't you get laughed at for calling a few snap shots of Baby Beesh in a hallway with a door as a backdrop a "photoshoot"?

You're trippin' if you think MadePro's work aint hot, PDG is supreme but MP ain't too far back if anything. But like you said he's your homie, so of course you're overley biased.

First of all I took the pics at Bash's hotel room, and I have about 70 more on a solid background. It was a planned shoot, we just didnt have much time to go outside and take pics.

Whatevers clever.

 

[threexkrzy]

yea should all be supportive of each other...i've hit up alot of the folks in this thread with a myspace request and gave them nuthin but props

 

[ValleyPainProduct]

im sorry but graphics is a competing business and its not like rap music where you collab and network wit other artists.....we dont need to support each other we need to step our game up to where people want our graphics more than the next artist......we all in competition......shemp aint gonna come on here and give someone props....he rather complain and talk shit about someones work sayin they bitin his style....why???? cuz its competition.....

Made pro has done some things i think could of been done better but hes shittin on most graphic artists work and hes gettin a lot of the same clients that have fucced wit PDG so he doin somethin right......

 

[StupidFace]

thing is for 600$.. that can cost you in the end..

I've done jobs with a quote like that before and the client ends up trying to make so many changes you only end up making like 10$ an hour..


i do everything on an hourly rate now because of that
