===================================================

Left to right, panels two and three : Max Headroom, Skinny Puppy : VivisectVI, Godflesh (self-titled).

Kind of surprised I can still write cursive, though the p really threw me for a loop. Panel five was sketched out, scanned, scaled up and traced in photoshop- I've no confidence in my ability to ink a straight line and lack any sort of useful augmenting objects, such as rulers. You'd think I'd've fixed this by now, but I've been averse to objects and backgrounds, so it hasn't really been much of a concern.

Still having issues with hands- the thumb in panel six is bent wrong and the hand in panel seven we scaled up after the fact- it was about 1/4 smaller at the end of the shading process. I don't draw nearly enough- life isn't structured to enable it at the moment.

Maybe these are different ammo cans and the lip tucks into the inside or something. A few tweaks along these lines actually works to separate the Templar military equipment from the stuff in use on Terra - though visually explaining it is extraneous.
