Cool stuff! Your backgrounds could be a little more detailed but still, I dig this

Like your page layout a lot. Storytelling is good too to me everything is clear.

my two ents:

Panel 1: good idea I like the worm eye view for let readers know how's going, but compared to the rest everything is drew more cartoony...less realistic (I know it's not easy so small)

Panel 2: Like a lot the character and the bike in foreground and the way you put cast shadows! I don't like he background too much. I like the idea to keep it lighter, but it's a bit poor...probably the colors are goig to add the right amount of details here.

Panel 3 4 and 5: I simply LOVE that sequence!!

Really good work

Thanks for the compliments and the criticisms guys. They are always appreciated.

Thanks Simone, I was trying to be minimal with that building in the background (a modern high-rise condo type building) because the focus is the bike and the Rider, but probably could have done a little more. And I really respect your opinion, because I checked out your website and your work is amazing. Such great brushwork.

Here's the page before that one:

Really like this second page (the first one in reality).

As always your page layout work very well, it's interesting and add value to the storytelling flow.

My two cents:

Panel 1: great scene. you balanced black and white in a very good way. Everything is clear at the firt sight. I don't like too much the black windows (with white out) on the left. Having some black there is good, but I would show also some window costruction too.

Panel 2: Like it..nothing to say

Panel 3: Good shot! The purpose of this panel is showing the rider that is watching the event below though and it's not clear at the first sight, because the rider is too small for understanding it. My suggestion is keeping the shot (bird eye view and people below are really great), but putting the camera closer to the rider or even at his shouder (so we can see it partially in foreground)
