Description
These are the next two pages of Diamonds
I think this'll be it for the time being. I might do another spread a little later, since some publishers require a few more pages in the pitch packages, but I like the way this page hints at more, but brings the opening cycle of the 'growing up' to a close.
Again, critiques encouraged!
Let me know what works and what doesn't.

The way you panelled the story is amazing and very inspiring
One thing i have to critique though, is that to me her head is a bit too narrow, well, especially on the portrait on the upper left side, she seems to lack part of her cranium. Of course, it's stylized, and it's maybe a deliberate choice, but it kind of make me tick, so i thought i'd share my two cents on it.
but apart from that minor thing, it's excellent

Ah, I'd almost forgotten about these! I miss composing proper comic pages.
I think I agree with you about her head. My style's morphed a lot since then, so it's almost like looking back on someone else's work.

This is really good work, the composition and layout of the panels is original and interesting to look at, which is vital when the text is an important part of the comic, which it obviously is here. Really good work, I could kearn from this when doing this kind of comic

HAHAHAH!!! Omg, yes ... wow, for some reason the Eastenders drums always made that shitty show 100% better ....
Damn, you're good at cracking me up

You're either very easily amused, or I am some sort of comedic genius...
I'm not sure I'm convinced by either option! ^___^

Haha! XD I wish I knew what the eastenders drums were. I've never watched one in my life (well, I've watched a bit and it was enopugh to make me wince with actual physical displeasure).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
What a sheltered life you've lived (by which I of course mean well done for having somthing better to do with your time than watching Eastenders!)
Surfice to say, it's quite a dramatic bit of cliff-hangery you've got going on here

I like it so far. ; ; I was sad that this was it, I was ready to read more! -weeps-
I also liked the lettering, you mentioned you didn't like the glow they had on the first little slide.
Btw, any news of your artbook? ; ;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
As for the artbook, I'm waiting till I've got a particular project of mine that's in the works finished. When I'm done with that (ahould be a month or two) I'll have more than enough art to put in the book, and more than enough fresh material to make it interesting for those who know my work already

w00t! -dances- I can't wait. o o; this must be kinda creepy for you though... >>;
