Very nice first assignment, Axel. Your work shows a lot of potential. Keep it up!

CHARACTER SHEET
TOP TO BOTTOM:
   Watch hat

   Curve of brim is more forward
   Pay attention to details on boots and spurs

PANELS:
   Backgrounds
   Good panel

AXEL-
   Your drawing and rendering of clothing is good. Wrinkles, shadows and forms are good.
   Character is interesting-looking -- good.
   Watch your drawing of horses, and get reference details (photos) of six-shooters, gun belts and boots. Watch the hats in profile.
   Your spotting of shadows works out well.
   Details are extremely important, Axel- to make sure the over-all drawing looks right.
   Keep up the good work.
