Honestly, you're probably your own worst critic and Gunnerkrigg is beautifully illustrated. That said, the textures you use in your color work add a lot of depth and feeling to it. You've also done really creative stuff with color tone. Maybe try some equivalents for B&W? There are a lot of ways to play with contrast/shadows/etc. in B&W, and certainly texture as well. But I'll reiterate—your artwork never feels lacking to this reader. :)

2018-03-14 15:48:11 +0000 UTCWhen I read some B&W comic pages, it certainly felt like something was missing - but instead of looking at it like that, I'd prefer to say that coloring is one of your strengths. :) I think the way you handle colors in GC adds a a layer of awesomeness to every single page you do.

2018-03-14 15:42:57 +0000 UTCBackgrounds, perhaps? More seriously, I like your black and white work, it just feels like a very different genre than the stuff you do in color.

2018-03-14 15:28:37 +0000 UTCMan, I know that feeling. Art is hard. Maybe look at B&W work of some artists you really admire and see if there's some common thread that you feel isn't present in your own work?
