If there were no others --just #1. I'd still be grinning (as I am now). That you can see the improvement is huge. :-D
You have a lot of strengths (that you dismiss or minimize) in your art--one is the personality you get into the characters. Many of the comic illustrators I've viewed (and this is not TONS) don't pull this off so well.
And I love and have always loved your skin tones.
About being extra sensitive about your artwork--you're in good company. I think I've told you about teaching a course in CREATIVITY (which has several drawing lessons in it) to big-deal executives with whoop-de-do companies and how always at least one of them was reduced to tears about drawing. Something about art/sketching particularly is very emotional...like nothing else, I think.
And I'm bummed about the tea cups and saucers too. Maybe the deserve their own square ---hahahahaha I want to see them.
Love #1
