Haha that is a LOT of pages for a 6 page comic

Nevertheless it was a fun read and the ending made me giggle

Looking forward to seeing more! <3

Colin: Really enjoying seeing Gigi and Prudence out of the gate, really good showing and a great first impression. I have a terrific sense of what they are all about as characters and you did a good job establishing tone and then subverting it with your joke ending. As usual you have a very good color sense about you and your characters all feel good. I thoroughly enjoyed that joke at the end and Prudence's autograph needs to be owned by everyone.

I really enjoy how your people felt and I thought you had great movements. I kind of wish you had arterial spray and coated Milly's face with blood, I think it would have made the punchline of her entering Gigi's room better and could have provided an opportunity for more humor based on their responses.

Of course, your people feel good, but I couldn't help but notice your car was having some perspective issues on the exterior shots. I dunno if you used a reference or just went at it, but maybe take some time to do some car studies, it may be one of the few weaknesses in your art you never touch on (because how often do we draw cars) but it'd do wonders for you to get a stronger handle on that.

I'm not sure if I was feeling the blue moonlight on Milly on the 'darkness' pages. I think I would have maybe darkened her skin to help make that shine through more, because as it stands it looks off. Not really lighter than the skin but not dark enough to be a shadow. Just kind of confusing on my eyes.

I kind of wish you played with some more details on the backgrounds. They're a kind of empty and sparse and I wish there was more going on in some of the shots? Even in Gigi's room, I feel like there should be flowers from adoring fans or a mannequin or whatever happening around, but without it it just seems sort of empty. Maybe even simple tiling or perhaps a door to show a stairway, a sign that says exit, any minor details would have given a lot more value to the pages and the backgrounds. As it stands, I obviously know what's going on there's no real question of location or purpose, but it's just something small that would have helped it.

Overall, this was a fun comic. I adored Prudence's final shot with the butterfly and I really want to see you do more with Gigi down the line. This was a great comic and you should be pleased with yourself. It's always a treat to read something from you. Great work!

Qyzex, I really really enjoy the style you have developed over the years. I'm also in love with Prudence
