Critique Comments:

"TOP:
Very nice 1st 'heroes' assignment, Nemiah. Keep working on your figures and anatomy. Work on backgrounds. Doing a super hero comic book story is much more than a matter of drawing figures only. Backgrounds are critically important. Where is the story or action taking place? Where is all this happening?

NOTES:
Fig1
-Center of body
-Rig cage is wider
-Inside of elbow
-Torso is too long
-Too many muscles on legs
-Hand too small
-Anatomy and musculature on legs are incorrect.
-Knees too low
-Legs too long

Fig2
-More chin
-Shoulder too low
-Arm too long
-Torso too long
-Leg is distorted
-Leg too long and distorted.

P1
-Longer angle to show more of background in scene.
* Usephotographic reference.

P2
-Show thief with money and gun in foreground
-Hero breaks through ceiling

P3
-Show background
-Money and gun go flying

-Nemiah-work from photographic reference - don't make it up or try to draw from memory. Realistic backgrounds are very important - otherwise the pictures don't look right. You're doing well - keep it up!
