The inaugural ink post! JB - I took your tip of foreground/background to heart. I had fun!

Nice job on that page, Paul. I'm finishing up that "lab with stormy sea" page and then I was going to tackle the page after this one. I like Kitty's hair in that last panel.

High praise, JB! I know you always hear 'thanks' but thanks! 
 
 Thanks, Eric! Looking forward to your pages.

Nice work, both guys.

JB, here are some of my inks (I have more, but I don't want to flood the thread with my work).
 
 Any feedback or constructive criticism would be appreciated- thanks!

I was hoping you guys would critique each other. Fewer Big Bad Byrne stories that way!

Well, I certainly would welcome comments from everybody here (as well as provide my own if asked to critique someone else), but in a true effort to improve, I was hoping to hear if there's anything in particular you think I should work on. I've been in the graphics field a LONG time, so I know how to receive criticism. As for Big Bad Byrne stories? I'm HERE, aren't I? I'm on your side, sir! :)
