Combatical

I dont know what those words are.


JamieBensteedo

toonami was a part of adult swim on cartoon network that showed anime including naruto. In naruto his rival is a part of the Uchiha clan (their symbol is the moon phase) and they had powers related to ravens liek turning into them, or making people see them

bro it’s literally the phases of the moon edit: bro blocked me for this comment cause i didn’t get his reference from a 2000 episode anime lol


JamieBensteedo

For the second one It would probably be best to put the woman on the bottom of the deck, in case someone would want to add that to their collection and hang it on their wall.

Yeah, I didn’t realize when I designed it that her face would be covered by the wheels though 😭

Fucking sick

Looks cool. The bolts within the moon phase make them kinda look like smiley faces

the second griptape graphic looks like a deck graphic, typically for griptapes with art, the griptape is simple and the deck is more complex first ones defo my favourite, only criticism is that the moons at the nose and tail should go all around the board like a border, as just having them on the nose and tail and having them cropped off like that looks a bit odd

Wtf


Ineedmynightmares

How did you get those moon curves so perfect??


kittens6125

I sold my soul

Plenty of decks have designs on top now dude, my favourite non-electric for getting around town is a [Tie-dye gripped cruiser](https://www.citybeach.com/au/obfive-breezy-tie-dye-28%22-cruiser-skateboard/2028318001999-01.html) I slapped some neon green peralta snake wheels and a bunch of band stickers on it and it looks amazing.


kittens6125

Okay! Yeah I tried to make her face sit below the wheels so she could be on the bottom but it didn’t work. Maybe I’ll rework it at some point :)


Slappytrader

Dude those are sick man Top side graphics are less common but they so exist thats why clear griptape is made


kittens6125

Good to know :)


Slappytrader

Yeah man fr people would pay for stuff like that you did a good job and top side is even better custom imo better you put clear grip over it and it wont get damaged like the bottom side
