seeing how often you make rookie mistakes in your work, no thank you.
even this one had the most basic mistake by using the sample images instead of the real ones.
to make it worse, the images were processed so much that a lot of the shades are gone.

to answer @Majala:
1. the original was 35.20MB instead of 10.17MB. granted, the sample was even smaller, but somehow even those looked better.
although i admit i forgot to check the image resolutions, so i apologize if you actually used the originals.
2. notrealz had explained it better than me, and it's linked to the first question as well.

1. you realized that's the only raw available right?
2. If you're talking about page 3, I did messed with that page but then I changed my mind and leaving the rest at normal. Though forgot to revert the page 3 back.

Bleh. Really could have done without the mind break in the last page. Came out of nowhere and there were so many better ways to end it, trap her in a double blackmail or something.

@Majala: You're not making a great case for yourself here, man.

Just some advice to help you improve as you're offering both commissioned work and crowdfunding:

a) All of your pages are over-leveled in the whites. It's apparent as most shading/blushing is either absent from the original or greatly reduced. This might also happen if you use a de-noiser a bit too liberally.
b) You might want to do an overall quality pass on the sections you had to redraw. It's easy to miss/forget some areas while cleaning, but you can catch most of it after you're done typesetting.
c) For the love of god, please export black and white pages as png. Quality loss is apparent in jpgs, and the original are all pngs.

Question: Is it to far away from the truth that you, because the horizontal resolution of the original images is under 1280px and so they were not downscaled by e-hentai for faster viewing, just downloaded the images by just right clicking on every image and saving them? And by doing so you used the same resolution but by e-hentai resampled to 7.51MB version instead of the original 35,20MB version as RAW?

It's either that or you compressed the images to compresssiom arertfact hell by your own accord. I've already asked myself several times if you simply use the resampled version of the RAWs that are under 1280px horizontal because they are often compression artefactastic, that means full of compression artefacts due to too much jpeg compression.

And just FYI e-hentai not only downscales images above 1280px horizontal resolution down to 1280px, it also resamples images above a certain filesize (I don't know the actual size) to a smaller one for viewing purposes. Example from the RAW for this gallery page 3: the image displayed in your browser with e-henati's standard setting is 295.1KB while the original has 1,23MB.

So if you're downloading a gallery page by page always check if there is a "Download Original" link at the bottom of the page. If there is one always use this link if you want to use the image for editing and not click right and save.
