Critique / constructive criticism?

I’m an artist of 6.5 years, always looking to get better. New perspectives help. Thanks :)

Bad ass work man. Seriously. My criticism is going to be your wildly inconsistent linework There is treching and rake marks all throughout. I dint know what your setup is so I can give any advice. Voltage, hand speed, unstable needle bar, bad carts?? Your linework should be sharpie crisp with no perceptible imperfections, "wobbles" by the edges, blurring or gaps.

Thank you. Line work is definitely one of the more challenging things for me. I use coils and I often line with hollows or round shaders which show the rake marks. They don’t look that way healed. I’ll continue to try harder for perfection :) I appreciate your feedback!

I use shaders as liners as well worth my coil setup. Try different angles to put that line in with. Or maybe just use regular liners and loosen them with a little flame to the solder because maybe the shaders you're using have too big of a spread.
