Panel 4: An unusual "camera angle" on this shot, but I definitely like the way this image worked out.

Panel 5: As with the Emp drawing I critiqued on the previous page, I'm pretty sure this was my second attempt at drawing this close-up shot; this time around, happily enough, the final results worked out better than on yesterday's page.

Today’s Patreon update: Originally done as a means of scratching out more worktime to complete the long-gestating Empowered vol. 12, I've switched over to a Monday/ Wednesday/ Friday Patreon posting schedule that won't feature the fixed content format I previously used. However, my vast archive of years of Patreon posts—extensive Empowered previews, vintage con sketches, work stages on covers, "damsel in distress" commissions, life drawings & much, much more—remains available for Patrons' perusal.
