I you saw a webcomic page that looked like this, would you consider this good art and coloring?

So i,ve been using HTTYD fanart and comics to practice sketching with the blue pencil, inking and coloring in the style I want to use for my webcomic Namesake.

Why "How to train your dragon" fanart? Because it's easier to focus on the technique if you don't think too hard on the character designs. Also, it's fun to draw.

The drawing above is a pretty good example of the inking, drawing and coloring style I want to use for Namesake. I find this to be decent looking while still being really fast. I started this drawing around 7h30pm last night. Finished around 1ham. So that's about... 4 and a half hours. That's pretty fast! At this speed, I could garantee three updates every week without it taking over my life or without it preventing me from working on my contracts, published comic pages, commissions or LJ posts.

What do you guys think? Would this count as good art? Good webcomic art? Should I change stuff? Would you read something drawn like this?

Thank you all for your opinion!

EDIT : if you're all interested - it's an "How to train your dragon" fanart that focused on Hiccup, Astrid and Toothless' scars, and kinda showed how Toothless was a big kitty that likes to crawl in bed. Hiccup is the proud owner of the biggest bed in all of Berk.

Honestly? Umm...I'll try to put this gently. Please don't be mad...

I think that yeah, it looks absolutely fantastic. I like the smooth lines and how detailed everything is.

(Sorry, I just felt like playing a little prank. XD; I really do think it looks great.)

_{Dammit, all this fanart makes me want to draw vikings, and I haven't even seen the film XD;;)}

Aaah, you're terrible! *pokes you in the belly*

You should check it out. It 's still in theatres and it is quite fun. For me (aside from Toy Story 3) this is the movie of my year. It's a little predictable, but once you get in the story, you stop caring about that XD Also, the animation is insanely beautiful.

*Gets poked* Ouch!

Hmm, sounds good. Maybe I should check it out, I can't even remember when I was at the movies last. XD;

At worse, someone put the whole thing on Youtube. But on a tiny screen, it's not the same.
