The last panel was really hard to do. I couldn't think of what colors to use...

Nyce! I like the third panel. Nice mood. :)
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

I like that 3rd panel too! Highly evocative! Brilliant choice of colours (in panel 4 too!) Good work all over!

I personally don't like the coloring on that third panel. I mean, it'd look great if it were all by itself, but in the strip, the sudden blackness makes it look like a misplaced panel.

I think the semi-gradual darkening from panels 1 to 3 followed by a return to normal coloration boosts the needed sense of irony.

Being dyslexic the colours in panel 3 flicker a little bit when I look at them (you would only understand if you were dyslexic yourself) but I still love the image. It forces you to focus on Ozy & Millie's eyes, and thus their emotions are more evident. The blurry tones of blue are an ideal choice of colour as well.

*makes a note to stick with the light, desaturated colors rather than go to the ends of the color picker.*
