This really is helpful for me to focus on my drawing insecurities and address them. My panel layouts are downright atrocious after watching this. I may think my page looks good, but when I hear David commenting about the thoughts going on his head with where the attention should be and what rules to follow, it makes me realize I have a lot of faults and where I need to improve. This helped a ton, thanks!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwMPBObzX0Y&t=1476">24:36</a> Thank you for showing your struggles. It’s so reassuring to see that even someone as experienced as you can’t do everything. Really appreciate that.

A way to make the cliff seem more menacing in the first composition would be by drawing birds flying and a river running all the way down at the bottom to convey height

"I covered a lot with this, that might've been a mistake" It's good to hear I'm not the only one to occasionally make impulsive errors in my drawings, very inspiring 👌

I would love to see more videos discussing Framing. like framing dialogue, framing environments/ establishing shots, framing a car chase, how Framing can enhance the emotional weight of a scene.

So many little gems in these videos, like not cutting off figures at the joints, especially ankles and wrists makes so much sense, but probably would have taken me years of work to realize on my own. I have learned so much from you its unreal, thanks for all the great videos :)

AAAAH!! Hi David!<br><br>I just wanted to say thank you so much for making this video. Choosing dynamic shots has been one of the hardest parts of comics for me, and I've honestly been stuck on it for months. I've been hoping for so long that you'd make a tutorial about this exact topic, so seeing this upload made me really excited.<br><br>Your videos have helped me more than I can express. They got me out of a huge creative block and motivated me to keep drawing when I felt like I wasn't improving. Thanks to your tutorials, I've made more progress in my art style than I had in a long time,I've even recommended your videos to fellow.<br><br>You've been a huge inspiration to me, and I'm genuinely grateful that you take the time to share your knowledge with us. It's truly an honor to be able to learn from one of the great artists in the comic book industry. Your willingness to teach and help aspiring artists means more than you probably realize.<br><br>Thank you for everything you've done for the art community.<br><br>Greetings from Mexico!
