Yeah, that is messed up. At least he could have done was credit me or just redraw it. Thanks for letting me know!

Hey, Robert.
I want to start off by saying that I have been a fan of yours for the last couple of years. At least two, since that is when you started posting the "How-to" videos. I can spend all day complementing your art, but I would like to take the time and give you a bit of criticism. Nothing bad, but constructive.
Ready for it? Here it is:
Most of your male comic characters have some sort of proportion problems. However, your comic style women do not, as far as I can tell. I think I know why too. I have seen the way you start a sketch on youtube. You go straight into the muscle mass of a character, as in you go straight for form and shape at the same time. Having so much detail so soon makes it hard to spot the small things like one muscle being half the size of its counterpart. I think you don't have that problem with the women because, in typical comic book fashion, women are drawn without all the individual muscles bulging and are instead drawn with simple curvy shapes which make spotting mistakes easy.
In this drawing for example: His left arm is too close to the body. This leaves little room to draw the pectoral and thus his left pec is too tiny which in turn exposes the upper-inner arm more than would normally be seen in a position like this. I see it in almost all your 'comic style' male drawings. I even made a comment on one of your youtube videos, the one titled "How to Draw - Comic Book Heroes" and you responded to it back then too, about this very same thing.
The thing is, it's not proportions in general. It's always proportions of one body part in contrast to its opposite side counterpart. In this case: left-side arm position and pectoral VS right-side. But I have never seen this in your more 'realistic' work or comic women (Maybe because I am distracted by other parts of the drawing, haha). This is why I think it has to do with how you jump straight to the muscle mass and that hides some of the problems.
I don't want you (or any rabbid fans) to think of this as a put down or anything because as I have already said, your work is damn amazing. Your technical skill is inspirational. I just think that you lose track of some of the fundamentals on your muscle-clad dudes is all. I only point this out because I have seen it consistently, from two years ago till today.
I just want you to be aware of it. If I was as at your level, I would want people to tell me, 'Hey dude. There is just one tiny thing you keep doing wrong." this way I could improve on it.
With Regards,
jushtan.
