    Help me with the quality of my additional

    Yeah I think that's really good, I've heard markers mark on originality above most other things (it's one of the criteria they mark against) Some good techniques if you haven't already incorporated them: - The juxtaposition of the red and black strips clearly elucidates the cultural...
