Critique Comments:

"TOP:
Nice inking on this assignment, Mike. Keep up the good work!

CHARACTER SHEET
FIGURES:
   - figure should've been further to the left to space all the illustrations properly.
   - This guy could've been a little bigger.
   - Continue to work on drapery and wrinkles of clothing.
Watch relative sizes and spaces relative to figures and objects in their proper space.

   - watch wrinkles on clothing

HEADS:
   - Inking here is too "scratchy"
   - a little more chin
   - consistent shadows here
   - watch curve of brim
   - light source
   - misplaced shadow

PANELS:
   1. longshot of this scene
   2. scene through window of castle
     pay closer attention to descriptions in the script/story.
   3. closeup of character, lit by fire
     Continue practicing your inking, Mike. You're doing good!


The blue washes of color are suggestions for black areas and shadows."
