"GET OFF MY BACK!"-bender's reply. I love that show. Didn't watch it that much before, but now I watch the reruns every night. Thanks for the comment.

Hey thanks for the watch and comment. Checked out your stuff, not bad. I saw you were looking for some crits. I'll say that if you are going to show your work to editors, you should work from professional pencilers' sequential pages. You can get some here: [link]
Also, just as an example the first panel, in the cape, when you compared the pencils to the inks there are a lot more cross hatches in the inks. You really only want to enhance the lines that the penciler has put there. Basicly I ink only what's there for the pencils, and make some lines a little thicker or thinner to show depth and volume. When you show your inks to proffesionals, you need to bring a copy of the pencils to compare. If there and a bunch of lines that weren't in the pencils, they wont hire you. It's ok to put a little bit of your own style into the pic, but they hire the penciler to draw the story and the inker to turn it into black. You have potential, just keep practiceing and you'll keep getting better. I suggest posting art at different sites like digital webbing or penciljack
to get some more crits. Good luck, I'll watch for some more stuff.

Thanks a lot. Yeah I was firguring for showing editors I would follow as closely as possible the original pencils. Thank you so much for the web site with professional art work to ink. I have been searching tons of places for good panel work but could not finad any. Deviant is great but I really want to do more complicated or professional work. Liek I said, thanks a bunch!
