Hey, I haven't been on the site in a few days, so sorry for the late response. Thanks so much for the critique - you've just vocalized a lot of feelings that I had while working on this but wasn't sure how to make sense of. Towards the end, I definitely started to feel impatient about having to spend an abnormal amount of time going over my lines, and it didn't occur to me that maybe I shouldn't be doing that - because, as you've reinforced for me again, I was too preoccupied with making pretty pictures. That's also definitely shown in how I prioritized using line weight for a visual effect rather than conveying information. Thanks again!
