These delightful Elph heads (let’s call them “Sleepy” and “Grumpy”) make a terrific pair.

Don't find these delightful! Kinda predictable characters by elph! Heads- half a body on some of the others he's put up! Yeah fantastic! - So what! Is there not more skill in doing a piece than simple outlines of characters and paste ups, yet PC will slate most that get uploaded and praise, no not praise...suck up to this average work by elph! Not saying he ain't any good I actually know the kid and think his work is amaizing at times but Y the constant sucking up! We get some good wee writers getting there work uploaded, possibly looking for some constructive criticism and PC and others continually slate them, were you always so funking great??? Please! stop 'writing off these kids off, you are going to turn them away from the scene, do we really need that? Still I think the comments added by PC are quite funny sometimes and he does add a little light on the subject but hey go easy on them! and give them credit when it's due! some of these kids are only 13 - 14. I know it took until i was around 20 to get any creditable graff going! Not gonna drop my name (Only gives others ammo against you, you all know that) but I can paint and have been for a long time. For the doods who are sending their work in don't be put off by these sacks siting behind a keyboard! Keep the work coming in, there is people out there that do appreciate what you are doing, though we may not comment on them all like some. Most of us out there are better than that!

Thank you for your thoughtful message. Indeed you have raised some
good points about encouraging up and coming graffiti artists and I do
agree, to an extent. Let me explain.

I believe that tough, honest criticism is the only way to improve one’s work.
If you hand out ratings of eight and above like gold stars, you not only
mislead the young artists, but you further propagate underdeveloped
graffiti. In other words, the artists will believe that they need no
improvement to their work which is not only bad for them but is a bad
reflection on Scottish graffiti as a whole. And, yes, I do occasionally pepper
my reviews with humour so as not to take myself seriously, certainly not to
put salt in the wounds of young bucks. Finally as far as your unfair and
unfounded comment on my “sucking up” to Elph, Elph happens to be
consistently good at what he does, hence the favourable write ups. Even
here, when he is not at his best, his artistic talent is clearly evident. If you
cannot see that, well, I’m afraid I can’t help you. This is Perspicacious
Critic. Thank you for your helpful feedback and remember: plaque can
cause bad breath.
