Very good.

Shading is perfect, as are the proportions, posture and lighting. I actually like the sketchy look to it, and the cloud/fog effect is really well done! Keep it coming.

It's a heavy! =O

Nice work, damn did you do this with a felt pen? I'm guessing because the colour gets stronger where the brush strokes overlap (I'm such a graphic nerd). But yeah, that's impressive, because whether or not it's a felt pen, I've never found it easy to make a good pic out of felt pens.

Keep it up! =D

Interesting.

This is good work with Pen and ink. I love the comic-book style, and how some of the picture leaks out of the frame (one of the best conventions of comics). However like J-qb said in your thread, it's difficult to distinguish the different shapes.

This is something I've struggled with myself - you can see evidence of that in one of my pen drawings. My advice to you is (I've recently tried this and it works perfectly) use thiner lines and lighter shading in the distance, then thicker lines and more dense shading in the foreground. This helps set up the perspective. In real life, we notice that he further something gets away, the less detail we see.

Give it a try, I look forward to how your art progresses. =)

Not bad for a first go.

I like this piece. It's simple, has a basic narrative, and a funny ending. Illustrations are simple but fitting. So you've basically ticked all the boxes to pass 'level 1'. So it's a perfect skeleton. Now all you gotta do is put some flesh on it. Just extend the level of illustrative detail, and extend the story detail and length, and you're already starting 'level 3.'

Keep up the good progress. =D

thanks for the review, although i think the story is about as long and detailed as it's going to get, no plot development here...
