Hey Energy, I'm glad I get a look at your process because I have a few things I want to tell you and hope you'll take it to heart.  So you're on the right path.  Obviously you have this concept that things are made up of basic shapes and manipulating those shapes will let you pull off perspective and the like.  But looking at these pages is like watching you run instead of walk.  

1. You need to give the shapes volume.  They're very flat.  Remember you're representing a 3D image.  Especially in the chests, make it more cylindrical.

2. Perspective.  You're not really trying, you're making it up as you go along.  Work on 1 Point perspective.  All lines will go towards a single point.  On page 2, it's obvious those lines will never converge on a point.  Until you understand this then half assing it won't work for you.  Some people can but only because they 'get' it.  The rest of your backgrounds are just flat shapes.  

3.  Your faces are off proportion.  Make those faces less long especially at the nose.  On page 3, you've got some good ones so work at it.

Otherwise you understand how joints work and there is some degree of foreshortening.  Remember, don't kill yourself on this stuff.  It's there to guide you and the more you practice the quicker you get at it.  

Rursus, you've got some cool stuff going on especially in terms of panelling.  Though I think there is a little too much negative space on our pages as a whole so I'd work on that a bit.  Otherwise please resize the pages, I find them too small.  Make 1000 pixels wide and there shouldn't be any issues.

Energy - Shame it wasn't finished. Once again, if you find yourself unable to finish the artwork, then at least put down the speech bubbles and dialogue so we can read out the story. Don't wait til you've drawn everything out before including them, include them anyway, over the sketch stages even. Better safe than sorry. There's not a whole lot I can say other than remember what you learned from your time at bootcamp and keep applying yourself.

Rursus - I really like your inks and screen tones. And I also like the way you compose your panels, though I feel like there was bit too much empty space which you could have have used to fill up with more backgrounds or tones even. It made it a little hard to figure out where they were. Other than that, loved the gag used here. I can't wait to see more of Sugar Rush.

Rursus: Okay, I think I made a mistake deciding to read this before your other comic against Tsumi, because that probably has the introduction to whatever happened in page 1 and part of page 2 that I'm lost with? But I REALLY appreciate the dumb obvious gag in page 3, that's super good. Your style is also rad as hell!!

Energy: from what I understood, Jessy was not attacking SugarRush, it was someone else? too bad it's unfinished

Rursus: very dynamic! but the panels are too tightly arranged, so it feels... constricted?

Energy- I wish this was finished it might make it easier to read, because to me these pages feel very disjointed and I'm having a lot of trouble trying to figure out just what's going on.

Rursus- I like the style here but some of the panels feel a bit crammed if you know what I'm saying. It can make some information hard to notice and intake and I had to reread the first page about 5 times to figure out what was going on there. But that might just be a "me" problem

Energy the poses here and the paneling looks great sorry to see you couldn't finish it.

Rursus, The comic looks great I am not entirely sure what happens between each page? I guess the only issue artwize Id say for me was the pages felt very small but that could be a personal issue of mine, other than a bit of the pacing it looks great!
