this is a collaboration people, i didn't draw it. but the guy who did, dawid strauss, took 11+ hours on the drawing part, and i spent 19 hours on the colouring part. what do you think?

That is very nice drawing with a funny theme ( what if the Rocketeer had to find a job... )

Some of the outlines are a bit thick though.

The smoke contrails could also be fainter/semi-transparent instead of being bright solid colours.

yeah, but i struggled with that STEAM (not smoke) idea but the lines were also dark so it didn't look as good. but the lines are supposed to be alot thicker up at the top to better show the perspective

very nice drawing

It looks like a new version of The Rocketteer.
I like his left hand. Only the red rocket, not the rocket itself but on the left of it the steam,smoke seems strange to me. At least i think that it doesn't fit there or its not on the right place.

but except that its a funny and a very good drawing.

and as always your colors rocks Surprised

I say thats well drawn and great colouring... though, as the people above me said, smoke/steam would be more transperant

i give it 4.5 maple leafs... 5 being the highest... good job.

I don't think the steam has to be transparent. However the part coming from the dude's rocket doesn't go well with the rest of the coloring; you should try to work on it more to make it match the overall style.

wwoooww you got skill. This is better than many of the professional coloring jobs that ive seen. you should go do coloring for artists. they'd love it and youd get payed a lot believe me. Awsome though. Your coloring skill is off the charts Very Happy
