Hi David! I don't know if you read the comments, but I really want to thank you for your critique. You said so many nice things, I'm totally flattered! And of course I'll try to incorporate in my next work all the things you suggested. For the pencilling I've used Caran d'Ache photo line blue pencil. (The pencilled pages I've sent for the critique was converted to greyscale and I adjusted brightness/contrast/levels for you to be able to see the lines). Sadly this is a pretty smooth pencil, but I loved inking on the blue lines, so I'll try to find a harder blue pencil next time. My inking is somewhat in between the thumbnails and the pencils. Not as many big blocks of blacks as on the thumbnails, but definitely more blacks than on the pencilled pages. I wish I could be more bolder with my inking, and it would be great if I could somewhat simplify my style a bit, to be able to work faster. Sadly I only have like 1-2 hours to draw a day, so these 6 pages took me like 5 months to create, not too ideal for making a full comic. I attached one of my inked page (with the thumbnail and pencilled page). I hope that you'll have the time to do an inking critique video for this course later. Fingers crossed :) Thank you again David, I appreciate your review so much!

Hi David thank you for the feedback and really helpful. I especially liked the advice on one of the panels having the hulk beginning to turn before the fight in the following panel.

Thank you David for the amazingly supportive feedback - the constructive points were super helpful, and the encouragement to show publishers really has blown me away - so thankful for your review. Can't say how much I apprieciate it.

Thanks for the feedback, David! Learned a lot. Made me realize why I was feeling the sidewalk too weird looking on my second panel. Left everything feeling odd as hell haha.
