Yeah, I know...

Besides, I got a good career lead in Utah.. My place don't offer much chance for graphic designers x-r

I like it, the colours are dark, but that helps to add to a feeling of unease, which the end of the issue follows up very well.

I think the coloring on the cowboy is fine, one of the better coloring jobs you've done, really. But I'm not sure about the brown/periwinkle for the strips and lettering. Maybe something brighter or more saturated for those would work better? or not, since it looks like you're doing low opacity layers... hmm... That's all I can think of.

I think this is really awesome? How do you do that? photoshop or normal painting? anyway this is one of my favorite cover and I really like the reference in number 8 to the big lebowski's cowboy. I don't think there is anything wrong with the colors. There is a sort of emotion with it, that's why I like it so much.

Hmmm... I kinda hunger for some contrast here, everything seems very much on the same level and a little muted. I'd like a little yellow or a little fire in the reddish hat band. But, that's just me and I ain't no colorist, gawd knows.

I dig the colors, the only thing I might do is boost some of the contrast, but honestly that's me nitpicking. Another great cover, man.
