Very nice artwork and story, Fergus. It's obvious that you have the talent to draw well.
How long have you been drawing?
I like your story a lot. It is a bit long to match the worthiness of the plot and subject matter. But it has some nice action, and very nice scenery, and your Ducks are drawn very well for a non-professional. It is clear that you pattern your style after Carl Barks. I really like your natural landscapes. The rocks, trees and water are drawn very well.
The plot of the story is nice, too.
Thanks so much for showing us your work. Do you have any others to show us? We would love to see them.

Fergus, I liked your story a lot! It has a good plot and your drawings are nice as well. I especially liked your Ducks and the outdoor scenery. Your interior drawings could use a bit of perspective improvement, but all in all I like your artwork. And one could really see, how your skills improved from start to finish of that story!
Your characterisation of the Ducks was spot on, and I liked, how you told a retrospect to Uncle Scrooge's past without relying on Don Rosa's McDuck biography. Very nice work, indeed. Maybe you should send your comic in to somebody responsible at Egmont?

Thanks for comments!

I drew this comic about 6 months (start - January, finish - July).

I didn't draw much illustrations.

VoBo, good work! In my opinion, HD&L on panel 1 are perfect! But I think Scrooge's eyes on panel 2 is too small, and desk on panel 2 and 3 could use a bit of perspective improvement.

Here are some drawings from a Mickey Mouse story I am working on.

VoBo, I think it is refreshing to see them picking their teeth and burbing after dinner!

And Fergus - I find your drawings very energetic in that oldfashioned Barks-way...Perhaps Donalds head is a bit small compared with his eyes, but I sure like your perspective, overall!

VoBo and Hedberg-should I know you, personally?

No, I might ad to both of you, we haven't met - yet - though we could have bumped into each other at some convention!
I, too, am about to become a member of DDF(R), my lazyness being the only obstacle...many of the DDF(R)'s know me 'cause of my writing on Seriejournalen (for bad or for worse)
