as of general composition, I think the left panel is absolutely gorgeous; the balance between dark and light, fire and shadows is superbly done. the right panel however I feel is slightly unbalances in detail level towards the top of the panel. the blank space on the floor leaves the image feeling unbalanced and out of focus.

there is something off with his left elbow, also, I think you got something wrong with the shadows and lighting on the right picture (even though it's pretty stunning)

Forgot to comment the expression of his face on the first one.
It's great, lots of emotion.

Love it! Especially the illustrations of that "Dead End".
Like those details very much, even if they're few. That trash bin is a real nice one.

ok, i love these two pages. seperatly. together they are too much. the eye cant deside on which part to look at.
let start with left page with the boy. again, everyt hing has imporoved in your style. he looks amazing! stroke, balance you got it all goign on here in perfection! event he smoke looks right and not to busy, becasue its supposed to be.
only question i have is, why put so much detail in all of him , from his amazing face to the smoke and fire to the great stroke count of his body and then totaly blow it on making whimp hands? they acctualy stand out like sore thumbs becasue of their over simplicity. it detrackts from the rest. i think if you added even the slightest more detail to them or even shadowing along the bottem it would slove the problem.
as to the right page. wow, just wow hunny. then only thing needed with this page would be that its too close tot he other page. witht hem both having so much happening in both pictures its an over whelming image to take in. i'd sugjest adding about an inch of space between them if you plan on scanning them or redoign them ever. or find a way to join the two together. as they are now they are sperate and too close. i personaly would just extend the brick wall over jsut a little on to the left page so that you get move of a connection feeling to them both. maybe bring a little garbage along with it.
other then that i'm loving this. the style and story have captured my imagination witht he beauty of the set up and the intrige of what the hell is going on! and you know what they say, if you can get them in the first three pages youll have a reader for the rest of the book.

This isn't me trying on new things, and I've had eleven pages finished for two months or more - if you see improvement from page to page, it has nothing to do with any critiques given on deviantart or so.
But thank you.

Yeah, I'll post the rest too. I'm being slow with it since I don't want to run out of pages before I've drawn the rest.
And mm, carpal tunnel is every artist's nightmare, for sure.
